As advertised it's €80,000 for 180 m² but described as only in 'buono stato', so I estimate ~€200/m² of works (~€36k) making the effective price ≈€644/m² versus the local median €467/m². Good photo set (19) and a terrace are positives, but the renovation-adjusted price places this above typical regional values.
More on the house and the area
This is a very attractive, high‑ceilinged Sicilian town house with original mouldings, ceiling medallions, period floors and roomy reception rooms that feel instantly liveable. The terrace gives a pleasant rooftop town view; the property is largely usable but would benefit from cosmetic refreshing and some exterior/terrace upkeep.
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€12,000 – €20,000
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.
- Only one small bathroom.
- Some rooms show peeling plaster/damp and need cosmetic repair.
- Exterior/terrace needs maintenance and repainting.
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 51/100The cluster lies on the Plain of Catania, with broad low agricultural land around the town and the foothills rising inland toward the Iblei. The San Leonardo river runs near Lentini, and the Lentini plain has long been used for citrus cultivation. Lake Lentini is close to the town; it is one of the larger artificial lakes in Sicily and part of the immediate landscape. Catania is the nearest large city, with full city services, a major rail station and the airport. This area is known above all for oranges and other citrus from the plain.
