What it really costs
Can you move in?
Livable, but something basic is worn out
In the listingHabitable- Sold at judicial auction
See what needs doing and what each job costs
This is a judicial auction listing (“in asta”), which carries legal and occupancy risks. Estimated purchase+renovation ≈ €75,400 total (~€820/m²) versus regional median €384/m², so it is not an attractive buy at face value.
More on the house and the area
A plain, narrow-street Sardinian house that looks habitable but externally neglected; the listing claims garden and terraces but photos don’t confirm them. This is an affordable town option near the sea but not a ready-made dream home — expect inspection and renovation/administrative 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€6,000 – €10,000
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 a single street-level photo; no interior or garden images to confirm livability or the listed outdoor space.
- Exterior shows wear, graffiti and tight street access with limited parking.
- Property is listed as an auction lot — expect legal/possession complexities and possible additional costs.
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.
