Condition not stated in the listingSee what needs doing and what each job costs
At €24,500 (€350/m²), the purchase price is below the local €464/m² reference, but the stated renovation need adds roughly €49,000, bringing the effective cost to about €1,050/m². Its inland location 26 km from the sea limits the upside, so this is mainly a renovation project rather than an exceptional bargain.
More on the house and the area
This is a genuine, furnished multi-level home with two bathrooms, a functioning kitchen, bedrooms and attractive vintage details such as terrazzo flooring, old timber doors and period furniture. It appears usable rather than a bare shell, but the dated systems and finishes mean it is better viewed as a refresh or renovation project than a move-in-ready dream 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€14,000 – €25,000
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.
- The listing describes the house as needing renovation, despite the photos showing a furnished and apparently usable home.
- Kitchen, bathrooms, fixtures, windows and finishes are distinctly dated and may require modernization.
- No exterior, garden, roof or surrounding views are shown, so the setting cannot be judged.
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 cluster is in the Madonie, with the limestone massifs around Monte San Salvatore and Monte delle Rose shaping the local landscape. The Madonie Regional Natural Park lies within this area. Petralia Sottana is the nearest small town of note and has a preserved historic centre and services; farther on, Castelbuono is one of the better-known historic centres of the Madonie. The nearest ski lifts are at Piano Battaglia in the Madonie, roughly a 35 to 45 minute drive depending on the exact starting point. This part of inland Palermo province is known for mountain villages, beech and oak woodland at higher elevations, and traditional pastoral and cereal country.
