What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €69,000 for 180 sqm, the asking price is just €383/sqm; assuming a habitable condition from 'subito abitabile', the effective cost is about €583/sqm including light works. That is still reasonable for a large character house near the Sardinian coast, though not a deep discount versus your low-stock baseline of €341/sqm, so this looks good mainly on absolute value and size.
More on the house and the area
This has genuine dream-home appeal: a beautiful church-and-rooftops view, old village stone character, vaulted spaces, and a private fruit-filled courtyard. Crucially, it looks like a real house rather than a shell—floors, stairs, windows and usable rooms are all in place—but it is tired and old-fashioned, so expect a solid refresh rather than instant magazine-ready living.
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€12,000 – €20,000
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.
- Interiors look very dated and need cosmetic updating.
- Only one bathroom is shown/listed for a large 180 sqm house.
- Some exterior/courtyard areas and terrace finishes feel rough and worn.
- No kitchen/bathroom quality is clearly proven in the photos.
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 72/100The Montiferru volcanic massif rises around Scano di Montiferro, with wooded slopes and upland terrain within the local area. The coast at Santa Caterina di Pittinuri and the Siniscola-facing stretch of the western Sardinian shore are about 10–15 km away, with limestone cliffs and small coves around Cuglieri and Sennariolo. The area is linked to the Montiferru and Planargia landscape of basalt plateaus, springs, olive groves and pasture. Bosa is the nearest notable town in the wider area, with a riverfront historic centre on the Temo. This part of Sardinia is known for Malvasia wine, olive oil and the Montiferru volcanic landscape.
