The €30,000 asking price is very low at €191/m², but a 1960s house with condition not stated could require substantial work. Using an estimated €700/m² renovation allowance, the effective cost is about €891/m², well above the local reference of €387/m².
More on the house and the area
The house has some authentic Sardinian character, including dark stonework, old timber doors, patterned floors and a traditional fireplace, plus a sizeable rear outdoor area. However, the interior is heavily cluttered and partly derelict, with collapse damage, rubble and unfinished auxiliary spaces, so this is a serious restoration project rather than a realistically livable cheap home.
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€31,000 – €55,000
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.
- Major renovation required, including a heavily deteriorated or partially collapsed room with rubble.
- Visible cracks, damp/mold staining, damaged ceilings and exposed masonry raise structural concerns.
- Only one bathroom is listed for 157 sqm and eight bedrooms.
- No attractive views are shown; the property is directly on a village street and the outdoor areas are overgrown or unfinished.
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 Sinis peninsula and the Gulf of Oristano are within about 15 km, with low coastal land, lagoons and saltwater ponds around Cabras and the west coast of central Sardinia. The Stagno di Cabras and the coastal wetlands near Sale 'e Porcus are part of the landscape around Nurachi. The protected marine and coastal area of the Sinis includes beaches and rocky shore around San Giovanni di Sinis and Capo San Marco. Oristano is the nearest town of size, with the provincial services and a substantial historic centre. The area is known for lagoon fishing and bottarga from the Cabras lagoon, and for the Sinis coast with the archaeological site of Tharros on the peninsula.
