This is a judicial-auction property, so it is not a straightforward purchase despite the advertised €81,332 price. The listing also conflicts on size and layout: 97 m² and three rooms in the facts versus a two-room apartment and 322.10 m² gross area in the description, with indicative rather than real photos.
More on the house and the area
The images suggest a bright, renovated modern apartment with an urban mountain backdrop, but they cannot be credited because the listing says they are not real photos. The actual property appears to be a small two-room apartment with a balcony, while its condition and livability remain unverified.
The listing and its photos show a house you can move into. Anything you spend beyond the price is your choice, not a repair.
- The listing explicitly says the photos are indicative and not of the actual property.
- The real home is described as a modest bilocale with one bathroom and a balcony, not the spacious apartment shown.
- Auction purchase with an unfinished fourth-floor storage room; verify legal status, measurements, utilities, and actual condition.
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 67/100The Peloritani hills rise immediately inland of Rometta, with short steep valleys running down to the Tyrrhenian coast. The Tyrrhenian Sea is at the foot of the area, and this stretch of coast faces the Aeolian Islands on clear days. Rometta sits on the Messina side of the north Sicilian coast, with Milazzo the nearest larger town for everyday services and ferry links, and Messina reachable for the full range of city services and rail connections. This coast is known for citrus, olives and small seaside settlements backed by low mountains.
