What it really costs
Can you move in?
Livable, but something basic is worn out
Condition not stated in the listingSee what needs doing and what each job costs
The €85,000 asking price is very low at €224/m², but allowing roughly €400/m² for the unspecified condition brings the effective cost to about €624/m², above comparable local levels. The listing offers 380 m², a pool and 74 photos, but does not state whether the house is habitable or renovated.
More on the house and the area
A remarkably characterful Sardinian village house with arched ceilings, historic stonework, a handsome entrance, traditional furnishings, and a broad rooftop view over Scano di Montiferro. The main living areas appear furnished and usable, while the extensive cellar/courtyard spaces are rougher and will need restoration. At 380 sqm for €85,000, it has genuine dream-home potential if the practical systems are sound.
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.
Our read of the photos, €400/m², falls in this band.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€44,000 – €74,000
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.
- Some cellar and courtyard areas show damp, peeling finishes, and significant maintenance needs.
- The house is very large, so renovation, heating, and ongoing upkeep could be substantial.
- Kitchen and bathroom quality is not fully demonstrated in the photos.
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 72/100The Montiferru volcanic massif rises around Scano di Montiferro, with wooded slopes and upland terrain within the local area. The coast at Santa Caterina di Pittinuri and the Siniscola-facing stretch of the western Sardinian shore are about 10–15 km away, with limestone cliffs and small coves around Cuglieri and Sennariolo. The area is linked to the Montiferru and Planargia landscape of basalt plateaus, springs, olive groves and pasture. Bosa is the nearest notable town in the wider area, with a riverfront historic centre on the Temo. This part of Sardinia is known for Malvasia wine, olive oil and the Montiferru volcanic landscape.
