- Sold at judicial auction
See what needs doing and what each job costs
This is a judicial auction listing (RGE 34/2023) which requires special procedures and is treated as a veto. With estimated renovation €700/m² the renovation ≈€138,600 makes the effective price ≈€155,211 (~€784/m²) versus the regional baseline €446/m², so the listing is scored as a trap.
More on the house and the area
Photos show bright, modern interiors and a pleasant view which make this feel like a liveable, attractive space. However the official listing states the property needs renovation and is being sold at auction, and the posted images may not be of the real unit — investigate real photos, floorplans and renovation needs before bidding.
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€39,000 – €69,000
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 55/100The area sits on the Hyblaean plateau in inland south-eastern Sicily, with low chalky and volcanic farmed hills rather than a mountain landscape. Within this radius the strongest natural feature is the agricultural plateau around Mazzarrone and nearby Caltagirone, used for vineyards and fruit growing; the area is known in particular for table grapes, including the Uva di Mazzarrone PGI. Caltagirone, the nearest substantial town, has a large historic centre and is known across Sicily for ceramics. The steppe and ravine landscapes of the Calatino are part of the wider setting, but there is no coast, major lake, or named mountain range within the immediate 15 km around the cluster.
