Large 186 m² two‑storey palazzo for €22,000 (€118/m²) but description implies full renovation; estimated €700/m² yields an effective cost ≈ €819/m² vs regional baseline €400/m², so total outlays exceed typical market value. Listing gives 6 photos but no condition or energy data.
More on the house and the area
A simple two‑storey terraced house with old wooden doors, shutters and a small balcony — it has some lived‑in historic character but no attractive view or outdoor space. The building appears standing but externally neglected; this is a renovation project rather than a move‑in home, suited to buyers after a very cheap fixer‑upper.
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€37,000 – €65,000
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 looks worn and the roof/guttering shows patch repairs — full renovation likely required
- No interior photos; condition and services (bathroom/kitchen/updates) are unknown
- No garden, view or private outdoor space; narrow town-street location
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 49/100This is inland south-central Sicily in the farmed hills between the Platani and Salso basins. The nearest town of size is Canicattì, which has the usual services and rail links; Licata on the coast is the nearest seaside town with a port. The wider area is known for cereal fields, vineyards and olive groves, and for the old sulphur-mining belt around the Agrigento-Caltanissetta interior.
