It's indeed Mediterranean climate.

That's a shame because my idea would just be to cover it with it and then apply waterproofing and paint it.
I don't know the details because it's not listed but I assume the house was fully functional at some point in time so it may have, albeit very old, some kind of functional septic tank, or maybe not.
Utilities is definitely a problem since you're required to be on the grid even if a fully solar system is installed but there's power lines close by so might be surprisingly easy to fix that.
I kinda want to buy it because since it's an old construction it would automatically grant me the permit to renovate and live there unlike buying other cheap land where construction might not be allowed. Zoned land where construction is allowed is obviously far more expensive and I'm priced out.

Please guys be honest, is buying this a really bad idea?
On the plus side it's a lovely part of the country, has a decent amount of land and plenty of water nearby if I decide to farm or homestead. And I've done construction work before.
