See what needs doing and what each job costs
The €85,801, 137 m² villa is advertised as a judicial auction, which is a mandatory veto regardless of its 1 km distance from the sea and apparent habitable condition. The baseline comparison (€626/m² versus €372/m²) also indicates it is priced above the local sub-€100k median before auction-specific risks.
Decoration, tired fittings, a bathroom or a kitchen. The house is liveable as it stands.
Our read of the photos is €200/m². There is no published price band below €350/m², so the range is that figure widened by the spread of the lightest band.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€9,000 – €15,000
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.
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 70/100The cluster is on the coastal plain west of Cagliari at the foot of the Sulcis mountains. The Gulf of Cagliari and the long beach system around La Maddalena Spiaggia and the Santa Gilla lagoon are within the local area. Monte Arcosu and the WWF reserve of the same name lie inland in the Sulcis massif, with Mediterranean forest and wildlife habitat. Cagliari is the nearest city of size, with a port, airport, university and the main services of southern Sardinia. The area is known for lagoon landscapes, beaches on the gulf, and the wooded mountains behind Capoterra.
