Assuming €200/m² renovation, effective price ≈ €109,650 or ~€831/m², which is about 50% above the Lazio baseline of €556/m². Listing claims the property is 'Habitable' and includes 33 photos, but the data lists 0 bathrooms — possible contradiction that reduces appeal.
More on the house and the area
A solid, single‑storey country villa with a roomy terrace, private grounds and olive trees — clearly habitable and structurally sound from the photos. The house is a genuine bargain for the area but the outdoor spaces need tidying and you should confirm internal finishes and bathroom availability before bidding.
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€9,000 – €15,000
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.
- No interior photos provided — finish level and number/condition of bathrooms not shown
- Garden and outdoor areas are overgrown and need work
- Rural access road and relative remoteness — check distance to services
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 55/100The cluster is in the built-up area of Viterbo, so the setting is an urban provincial city rather than open countryside. The Cimini Mountains rise nearby and Lake Vico lies within this area, inside the Regional Natural Reserve of Lake Vico. Montefiascone and the south-eastern shore of Lake Bolsena are also within reach of the wider Viterbo basin. Viterbo itself has a large medieval center and is known for the Papal Palace and the historic quarter of San Pellegrino. The city is known for thermal waters, with several spa and hot-spring sites around the Viterbo area.
