Condition not stated in the listing- Sold at judicial auction
See what needs doing and what each job costs
This is offered as a judicial auction (not a normal sale) which is a major legal/transactional risk. With an estimated renovation of €700/m² (€74,900) the effective price ≈ €88,745 (~€829/m²) versus regional baseline €380/m²; the ad also states the photos are only indicative and the listing omits condition and bathroom data.
More on the house and the area
Very low-priced villa with a separate plot a short drive from the sea, so it’s a clear bargain for someone after land and a home project. The exterior photos show a plain town building and the interior images are stock — the real property’s condition is unknown and will likely require renovation. Not a turnkey dream home, but attractive as an inexpensive project or investment if you’re prepared for auction paperwork and repairs.
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.
- Listing states the photos are indicative and not of the actual property
- Condition and number of bathrooms/utilities are not documented — actual state unknown
- This is an auction lot — buyer will face legal/auction costs and due-diligence requirements
- Likely needs renovation/updates rather than being move-in ready
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 52/100The cluster sits in the inland hills east of Palermo, in the valley system of the Eleuterio river. Monte Jato and the first relief of the Sicani-facing interior are within the wider local horizon rather than high mountains. The nearest large city is Palermo, which provides the full set of services, rail links, port and airport access. This part of the province is known for mixed agricultural hills with olive groves and arable land, and for small inland centres linked to Palermo by the road corridor toward Agrigento.
