See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €55,000 plus an estimated €70,000 renovation, the effective cost is about €1,250/m², far above the local reference of €445/m². The full ownership, garage, terrace and two bathrooms are positives, but the substantial renovation burden in an inland location makes this weak value.
More on the house and the area
A solid, fully roofed townhouse with a pleasant traditional street façade, balconies, garage, and usable kitchen and bathroom. It appears habitable but dated rather than move-in ready, with cosmetic renovation and modernization needed; the main appeal is practical space and outdoor balconies, not a spectacular setting.
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€20,000 – €35,000
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.

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 56/100The cluster sits in the inland Erei hills of central Sicily, in a landscape of cultivated hills, grain fields, olive groves and erosion-cut valleys. The Dittaino valley is the main lower ground nearby, and Lake Nicoletti lies a few kilometres west of Leonforte. Enna is the nearest town of size, with the hilltop historic centre, the Lombard-era castle area and the usual provincial services. This part of inland Sicily is known for cereal farming and hill towns rather than for a single protected or nationally distinctive landscape.
