€68,000 for 144 m² but the building is 'al grezzo' with missing systems and finishes; estimated completion ≈€700/m² (≈€100,800) gives an effective price ≈€169k or ≈€1,172/m², far above the regional median €446/m². The listing text contradicts the stated condition (marked Renovated).
More on the house and the area
A full corner building in central Avola with a large 70 m² garage and a wide rooftop terrace offering open views over the town and its monuments — great potential for a B&B or a single home. The interior is a true shell (no finishes, fittings or services), so this is a renovation project priced accordingly rather than a move‑in house.
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€28,000 – €51,000
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.
- Property is sold 'al grezzo' (raw shell): no floors, no finishes, no windows or internal systems — full renovation required.
- Currently classed in cadastral category F/4 and must be completed and re‑registered after works; technical/permit costs expected.
- Roof/terrace and garage look structurally present but waterproofing, drainage and stair/torrino access likely need work.
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 74/100The cluster is on the Ionian coast at Avola, with long low beaches and the mouth of the Cassibile river nearby. The limestone Hyblaean plateau rises immediately inland, and within this radius the Cavagrande del Cassibile reserve is the main landscape feature, with a deep canyon cut into the plateau. The Vendicari reserve and the baroque towns of the Val di Noto are important nearby destinations, but they lie beyond the immediate 15 km landscape. Syracuse is the nearest larger city, with full urban services and major archaeological remains. The area is known for Nero d’Avola wine and almonds.
