At €45,000 (€238/m²), the 189 m² house is near the sea but described as very old and requiring complete renovation; estimated renovation brings the effective cost to about €1,338/m² versus a €464/m² local benchmark. The description also states 158 m² rather than 189 m², so the usable area and total project cost need verification.
More on the house and the area
This is a substantial old Sicilian house with traditional shutters, timber ceilings, mature flowering plants, and a private outdoor area. However, the interiors are severely deteriorated, with rubble-covered floors, damaged ceilings, and an overall absolute-renovation condition, so it is a major project rather than a realistically usable home today.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Our read of the photos, €1,100/m², falls in this band.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€75,000 – €111,000
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.
- Requires complete renovation, not cosmetic updating.
- Interior rooms contain extensive rubble and damaged ceilings.
- Only one bathroom is shown for a six-room, 189 sqm property.
- Utilities, structural condition, and roof integrity need verification.
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 72/100The area is the flat coastal plain between Trapani and Marsala, with the Tyrrhenian coast and the Stagnone lagoon nearby. The Riserva Naturale Orientata Isole dello Stagnone di Marsala lies within this area, with salt pans, shallow water and the islands of San Pantaleo, Isola Grande, Schola and Santa Maria. Trapani is the nearest town of size and has a port, ferry connections and a substantial historic centre. Marsala is also close and is known for its wine. The area around the lagoon is known for salt production and windmills.
