Hello

Here is a house designed to be autonomous in water, electricity and heating, in Sicily in the countryside 1.5km from the sea.

I can't afford to finish it, which is why I'm putting it up for sale.

This house is an old stable that was part of a 19th century farmhouse. The initial project is a demolition and reconstruction project. It is located at the end of a small 450m dead-end country road, which is connected to the regional road.

Direct surroundings:

Orchards, olive groves, farmland - a house on the other side of the courtyard with a couple inside - an empty house.

Features to date:

- anti-seismic (construction is even oversized)
- "dry" house with an air duct underneath and around the entire perimeter
- traditional stone cladding
- wall thickness with insulation and interior covering: 61cm
- 87m2 full-foot interior area, with ceiling at 2.70m high, with a double bedroom, 2 rooms for toilet/laundry/shower, a central island for the kitchen and open space for the living/dining room/library
- 87m2 of interior surface in the basement, with ceiling at 2.70m high. Large space to match according to your tastes: workshop, wine cellar, bedroom...
- roof terrace of 100m2, ideal to enjoy the view, but also it harvests rain and has a corner for thermal and photovoltaic panels.
- large windows and openings
- designed to be cool in summer and warm in winter
- already independent in water (despite the very dry climate) thanks to the connection to a 45m3 cistern and the harvesting of rainwater.
- 1.5km from the sea, south eastern coast of Sicily
- I had the house connected to the electricity grid while waiting for solar panels
- the house is already connected to a skeptical pit (to be transformed into phytoepuration)
- interior spaces to match according to taste or to leave as is (double room, toilet-laundry-shower, kitchen (with central island) open on the living room/dining room)

This house is already independent in water thanks to the collection of rainwater in a cistern of 45 cubic meters.

Expenses incurred to date: 265,000 euros

It remains to be done (according to my estimates):

- double-glazed window and floor-to-ceiling windows with interior shutters: 15,000 euros
- ground heating - hot water - solar thermal panels for water heating: 15,000 euros (once installed, heating and hot water will be free all year round for decades!)
- insulation and coating: 60m2 of wall insulation to be made according to taste
- full-foot interior floor: from €2,000 for tiling to €10,000 for traditional stone
- lighting of the exterior staircase - corten steel staircase/roof safety re-mbard: 10,000
- interior electricity: 4000
- photovoltaic panels (to be installed on the roof) - batteries: 10,000

Italy's advantage: residents do not pay property or local taxes on their home of residence.

Once finished, this house allows you to live without spending more.
