See what needs doing and what each job costs
The €70,000 asking price is just €184/m², well below the €464/m² local comparison point, but the house is explicitly sold to renovate. At an estimated €700/m² renovation cost, the effective cost is about €884/m², making the large 380 m² property expensive unless renovation costs can be contained.
More on the house and the area
A striking historic Sicilian townhouse with an elegant, illuminated façade, ornate stone portals, iron balconies, shutters, and a glimpse toward the distant coast or valley. Inside, the house retains generous rooms and period details, but it is dusty and visibly in need of significant renovation rather than immediate occupancy. At €70,000 for roughly 380 sqm, the space and character create a strong bargain impression, though this is a major restoration project.
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€75,000 – €133,000
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.
- Substantial renovation is clearly needed, including removal of deteriorated wallpaper and repair of damp-damaged surfaces.
- Only one bathroom is listed for a very large 380 sqm property.
- The photos do not establish current utilities, heating, roof condition, or full legal/habitability status.
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 58/100This is inland south-central Sicily on the low hills and valleys between Naro and the lower Platani basin, with cultivated countryside and badland-like clay slopes in places. The Mediterranean coast around Licata is the nearest coast, but it is outside the immediate 15 km landscape. Agrigento is the nearest larger town, with the Valley of the Temples archaeological area and full city services, but it lies beyond the local radius. The area is known for agriculture, especially vineyards, olives and almonds, and for the historic hill towns of this part of the province.
