What it really costs
- Sold at judicial auction
See what needs doing and what each job costs
This 150 m² home is being sold through a judicial auction at a €16,672 minimum bid, so it falls under the auction risk category regardless of the apparent €111/m² discount. The listing does not state the condition or usable bathroom count, making renovation and habitability costs uncertain.
More on the house and the area
This is a large independent 150 m² house with a garage and tavernetta at an exceptionally low asking price, but nothing shown establishes a beautiful setting, distinctive architecture, or appealing interiors. It may be a substantial home rather than a ruin, yet the unknown condition and absence of confirmed bathrooms make it difficult to treat as a ready-to-live-in dream property.
Certified wiring, water and drainage, a heat source, a roof that keeps the water out, one working bathroom. Facade, insulation, a second bathroom and the floors wait.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Our read of the photos, €700/m², falls in this band.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€30,000 – €53,000
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.
- No actual interior or exterior property photos are provided, and the listing warns that images may be indicative.
- Condition and livability are not documented; the listed bathroom count is 0.0 and significant updating may be required.
- Judicial-auction purchase requires careful review of the appraisal, occupancy, title, and any planning issues.
- Energy class F suggests relatively poor efficiency.
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 52/100The area sits in the inland hills between the Caltagirone plateau and the upper valleys that drain toward the Simeto basin, with cultivated slopes, wheat fields, olive groves and patches of woodland. Caltagirone is the nearest larger town, with a substantial historic centre and services. This part of inland eastern Sicily is known for cereals, olives and late-season prickly pears; San Cono itself is associated with prickly pear cultivation.
