See what needs doing and what each job costs
Historic 250 m² town house offered at €55,000 but needs mainly roof work; I estimate €200/m² (~€50k) so effective cost ≈ €105k or €420/m², slightly above the Sardegna median of €387/m². Central location and 28 photos support the condition, but after renovation the price is only a modest value relative to local market.
More on the house and the area
A very handsome early‑1900s stone padronale with carved stone surrounds, high rooms, original beam ceilings and a working fireplace — lots of period character and a rear garden. Not move‑in ready: the roof shows holes and interiors need significant renovation (bathroom, services, plastering), but the solid shell and beautiful features make it a realistic restoration bargain.
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€17,000 – €28,000
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.
- Tiled roof has visible holes and will need repair/replacement before full use.
- Interiors show damp/cracks and an old bathroom; wiring/plumbing likely need updating.
- Property will require a full interior renovation though the main structure appears sound.
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 39/100The cluster lies in the Campidano plain, with low cultivated ground around it and the hills of central-southern Sardinia farther off rather than inside the immediate area. The Flumini Mannu river system crosses this part of the plain. Cagliari is the nearest city of size, with the port, airport, major services and the main historic quarter around Castello. This area is known mainly for cereal farming, olive groves and the broad agricultural plain of the southern Campidano.
