What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €80,000 (€678/m²), the asking price is already 45% above the Sicilia country-house baseline of €467/m²; assuming habitable condition, effective cost rises to about €878/m². The 62 photos and spacious one-level layout are positives, but condition, age, and energy data are missing, with no strong location premium at 18 km from the sea.
More on the house and the area
A genuine, spacious country home with multiple bedrooms, functioning interiors, a fireplace, covered outdoor terrace, and a sizeable garden with mature trees. It is clearly livable rather than a renovation shell, but the décor and bathroom are dated and the exterior grounds need tidying, so the appeal is practical and tranquil rather than spectacular.
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€8,000 – €13,000
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.
- Interiors are fully usable but dated, with older furnishings and a basic bathroom.
- The garden/grounds look somewhat rough and would need landscaping and ongoing maintenance.
- No scenic sea, mountain, or village view is shown; the property’s appeal is mainly space, privacy, and outdoor living.
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 49/100The area sits on the southeastern side of the Erei-Hyblean uplands, with low chalk and clay hills cut by cultivated valleys. The Gela plain and the Gulf of Gela are nearby, but the cluster is inland rather than on the coast. The nearest town of size is Gela, which provides major services, a port and rail connections. Caltagirone is also nearby and is known for its historic centre and ceramics. This part of inland southern Sicily is known for cereals, vineyards and olive groves.
