See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €38,000, the house looks cheap, but it needs a complete renovation: estimated total cost is about €152,400, or roughly €1,465/m² after works versus a local reference around €377/m². The 10 km distance from the sea adds little location premium, so this is only worthwhile if renovation costs can be kept far below standard levels.
More on the house and the area
This is a genuine traditional Campidanese house with old timber doors, a tiled roof, and a private internal garden—pleasant regional character, but no standout view or spectacular setting. The interiors are dated and partly unfinished, and the listing explicitly calls for an integral renovation with no bathroom shown, so it is a substantial project rather than a ready-to-live-in home.
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€41,000 – €61,000
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.

No mains drain: add €2,000–4,500 for a septic tank. Listings never say, so ask.
- Requires a complete renovation rather than a light refresh.
- No bathroom is listed or visible, so major services and plumbing may be needed.
- Visible façade deterioration, damp staining, and aging roof edges require technical inspection.
- The small rear garden is overgrown and enclosed by basic block walls.
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 78/100The Sinis peninsula and the west coast are within this radius, with long sandy beaches at Putzu Idu, S’Arena Scoada and Is Arenas, and the Capo Mannu headland. The Stagno di Sale ’e Porcus and the wider coastal wetland belt around the Sinis are part of the local landscape. The Montiferru volcanic massif rises inland to the north-east. Oristano is the nearest town of size, with the main services and rail connections for this part of central-west Sardinia. The area is known for olive groves and for the Malvasia di Bosa wine zone in the wider coastal belt north of here.
