360 m² historic-center property in Scicli listed at €255k but described “da ristrutturare”; estimated renovation €700/m² → total ≈€507k (≈€1,408/m²) versus regional median €467/m², so the effective price is well above local norms.
More on the house and the area
Large, solid historic townhouse in Scicli with very photogenic interiors — marble stair, arched openings and original patterned floors — and multiple kitchens/bathrooms. Ready to live in with light refresh and a useful roof terrace, it works well as a family home or small B&B, though a ground-floor unit needs renovation and central location can limit parking.
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€71,000 – €126,000
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.
- Some rooms and finishes are dated — cosmetic updating likely.
- Ground-floor separate monovano needs renovation to be independently rentable.
- Town-centre location means narrow streets and limited parking / possible noise.
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

The Mediterranean coast is close, with the beaches and low cliffs of the Costa di Carro and Sampieri area within about 15 km, and the Irminio river mouth and coastal reserve to the west. Scicli itself has a large Baroque historic centre and is part of the Late Baroque Towns of the Val di Noto UNESCO site. Modica, another substantial town with a major historic centre and services, is nearby. The area is known for Val di Noto Baroque architecture, dry-stone walls, carob and olive countryside, and for Montalbano filming locations.
