See what needs doing and what each job costs
This is a judicial auction and the description states 'non ultimato', humidity issues and no agibilità while the listing also claims 'Renovated' — a clear contradiction. With an estimated €1,100/m² renovation the effective price is about €1,522/m² (€223,817 total) versus the regional median ~€416/m², making this a risky auction lot.
More on the house and the area
Photos show a bright, contemporary interior with high‑style finishes and an attractive modern bathroom/kitchen. However the actual listing states the house is unfinished, has damp problems and lacks agibilità/energy certification — a charming potential home but a real renovation/legal project before you can move in.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Our read of the photos, €1,100/m², falls in this band.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€58,000 – €86,000
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.
- Provided photos are indicative only (agency note) and may not be the actual rooms.
- Listing text says the unit is not finished and shows humidity issues.
- Property is sold without agibilità and no APE; there are documented difformities in the basement that need regularisation.
- Likely needs remediation/technical work before it’s legally habitable.
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 58/100The cluster sits on the Abbasanta plateau in central-west Sardinia, with basalt uplands, open farm country and low volcanic hills in the immediate area. Lake Omodeo lies nearby, the main inland water body of this part of Sardinia. The upper Tirso valley is the main landscape feature around Ghilarza, and the Nuraghe Losa archaeological site is close by. Abbasanta and Macomer are the nearest larger centres for everyday services, and Oristano is the nearest provincial capital with fuller shopping, rail links and administration. This part of Sardinia is known for pastoral farming, nuragic archaeology and the plateau landscape of central Sardinia.
