€39,000 price but estimated renovation ~€700/m² (64 m² → ~€44,800) makes effective cost ≈€83,800 or ≈€1,309/m², well above the local median €446/m². Property is 4 km from the sea and has 17 photos, but being currently a stalla/garage means conversion and permits will be required, so total investment is high.
More on the house and the area
Attractive old stone walls and arched openings give the property authentic historic character and there is a gated yard plus a small overgrown external area. The interior is a working stable/garage with dirt floors, temporary roofs and no services — it will need a complete conversion to become a livable home.
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€13,000 – €23,000
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.

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 cluster lies on the Tyrrhenian side of Sicily between the coastal plain and the first ridges of the Peloritani, with views inland to low mountains and short valleys running down to the sea. The coast of the Golfo di Patti is nearby, with long urban and semi-urban beaches around Barcellona Pozzo di Gotto, Milazzo and Oliveri. The small lakes of Marinello and the Tindari headland are within about 15 km to the west, inside the protected area of the Laghetti di Marinello oriented nature reserve. Milazzo is the nearest substantial town in daily life, with a large historic citadel on the promontory, port services and ferry links to the Aeolian Islands. Tindari is known for the hilltop sanctuary and Greek-Roman archaeological area. The wider area is known for citrus cultivation on the plain and for the coast facing the Aeolian Islands.
