What it really costs

Not before the basics are done
In the listingNeeds renovationSee what needs doing and what each job costs
At €90,000 for 100 sqm the asking price is already €900/m², versus a very low local baseline of €419/m²; with the text stating 'stato fatiscente' and integral renovation or even demolition/rebuild, I estimate about €1,200/m² renovation, bringing the effective cost to roughly €2,100/m². The central, serviced location near the sea helps a bit, but for a near-rebuild project this is weak value compared with the catalog baseline.
More on the house and the area
This is not a charming old home waiting for paint; it reads as a heavily compromised shell with collapsed roofing, moisture damage and neglected exterior spaces. The central Quartu location and low €/m2 help a little, but the photos do not show beauty or realistic near-term livability.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Our read of the photos, €1,200/m², falls in this band.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€40,000 – €59,000
Wiring, water and sanitary work of any kind, heating, air conditioning and gas go to a registered firm by law, and so do flues and the air openings for gas appliances. That labour stays in the bill. Yours is the stripping out, plaster, paint, floors, tiling and carpentry.
Labour is 61% of a renovation price on average and 67% at the median, across 191 items of the Emilia-Romagna 2025 public price list. Materials are the rest. An averaged price list, not a quote.
Materials you buy yourself carry 22% VAT; supplied by the firm doing the work they go at the 10% renovation rate. On a €30,000 materials bill that is €3,600 of extra tax.
Household wiring installed before 13 March 1990 counts as compliant if it has a main breaker with overcurrent protection, protection against direct contact and a 30 mA RCD. Having a firm bring the existing wiring up to that and certify it is the cheapest lawful route.
Bringing a house that has stood empty back into service: new water, sewer and electricity, plus the practices. The same sum on an 80 m² house and on a 300 m² one, which is why a €40,000 house is not a €40,000 project.

- No sea view or notable character is evident from the photos.
Estimate from the listing and its photos, not a survey. Treat it as the starting point for your own quotes. An Italian builder's quote is normally written without VAT and without design fees, so add about a quarter to any figure a firm gives you.
The area around
Location score 55/100The cluster lies in the urban area of Quartu Sant’Elena on the east side of the Cagliari conurbation, so the setting is mainly suburban and coastal-plain rather than a distinct rural landscape. The Sette Fratelli range rises inland to the northeast within this part of southeastern Sardinia. The Poetto shoreline and the Gulf of Cagliari are nearby, and the Molentargius-Saline Regional Park lies between Quartu and Cagliari with lagoons known for birdlife, including flamingos. Cagliari is the nearest city of size, with the full range of services, a port, rail links and the main airport for southern Sardinia. The area is known for the long urban beach system around Poetto and for the salt lagoons behind it.
