At €254/m², this €31,218 apartment is 62% below the local €661/m² benchmark; even allowing roughly €200/m² for unspecified works, the effective cost is about €454/m². The listing confirms autonomous heating and a cellar, but does not say whether the home is habitable or detail the bathroom and interior condition.
More on the house and the area
This is a very large, bright apartment at an exceptionally low price, with new-looking flooring and at least one modern bathroom shown. However, the interiors are mostly plain and unfinished-looking, the kitchen may not yet exist in reality, and the exterior offers little visual appeal.
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€8,000 – €14,000
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.
- The kitchen appears to be a CGI/rendered proposal rather than a confirmed installed kitchen.
- The listing facts are inconsistent: 123 sqm but only one room and zero bathrooms recorded.
- Plain apartment-block setting with no notable view, garden, terrace, or historic character shown.
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 62/100The Lepini Mountains rise immediately east of Artena, with limestone ridges and foothill slopes shaping the area within a few kilometres. The Sacco valley lies alongside the town and forms the main lowland landscape here. The Monti Lepini are included in the Monti Lepini area protected by the regional park system of Lazio, with mountain roads and trail access on the eastern side of town. Valmontone is the nearest larger town and provides rail access, motorway connections and the main everyday services for the area. The wider zone is known for olive groves, hillside historic centres and the old route between Rome and the inland Ciociaria towns.
