This is a 1/2 share being sold at judicial auction, creating legal/occupancy complexity and extra risk. €23,390 + estimated €200/m² renovation (€20,800) → effective ≈ €44,190 (≈€425/m²), above the regional baseline of €379/m².
More on the house and the area
Solid 1980s single‑storey villa with good, lived‑in interiors, a large practical roof/terrace and countryside views only 3 km from the sea. The setting and price are very attractive, but the exterior and terraces need clear maintenance and it’s an auctioned half‑share with current occupancy — plan for repairs and legal/possession work.
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€7,000 – €12,000
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.
- Exterior plaster and façades are in poor condition and need repair/repainting; terrace waterproofing likely required.
- Property is sold as a 1/2 share in an auction and is currently occupied — legal/possession steps required.
- Access is on secondary/interpoderale roads (rural location) which may be awkward for some buyers.
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 50/100The cluster sits on the low Mediterranean coastal plain at the head of the Gulf of Gela, with sandy beaches, a commercial port and coastal industrial areas on the south coast of Sicily. Archaeological remains of the ancient Greek colony of Gela are in and around the modern town (archaeological area and finds). A large petrochemical/refinery complex occupies part of the coastal zone close to the town. A coastal lagoon/wetland (the Biviere di Gela and associated marshes) lies nearby and is a local bird habitat. No significant mountains or named mountain range lie within about 15 km; inland beyond the plain there are low hills. The nearest larger provincial centres are tens of kilometres away to the north and east.
