What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €333/m² upfront, the €35,000 price looks attractive, but the listing explicitly says da ristrutturare. Estimated renovation adds about €73,500, bringing the effective cost to roughly €1,033/m² versus the €467/m² baseline, making this a weak renovation deal despite 105 m² and 15 photos.
More on the house and the area
A substantial three-level town house with attractive old wooden doors, chandeliers, terrazzo and marble-like floors, plus a genuinely useful terrace. It appears broadly usable rather than a shell, but the interiors are dated and show damp-looking staining and cracks, so this is a renovation project rather than a move-in-ready dream home. At €35,000 for 105 sqm and three bathrooms, the price is the main appeal.
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€21,000 – €37,000
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 house is explicitly sold as needing renovation, with visible wall cracks, staining, dated bathrooms and worn finishes.
- The large water tank and basic utility setup may require inspection or upgrading.
- No notable sea, mountain or countryside view is shown; the terraces overlook neighboring buildings.
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 48/100The cluster lies in the inland belt east of Palermo, in low hills and cultivated countryside above the valley of the Eleuterio river. Monte Grifone and the first ridges behind Palermo are nearby, but this is not a mountain landscape. The Tyrrhenian coast around the Gulf of Palermo is close, with the nearest urban services in Palermo, which has the airport, port, major rail links and the full range of city amenities. The area is known for citrus groves, olive trees and the suburban-agricultural fringe on the eastern side of the Palermo plain.
