Although priced at €25,000 (€510/m²), the listing explicitly describes a C/2 property, which is storage/non-residential use rather than a legally habitable dwelling. Confirming a lawful change of use could involve substantial costs and may not be possible.
More on the house and the area
This is a small, usable countryside home with a furnished living-kitchen area, bedroom, bathroom, and a generous garden for the price. It is not visually spectacular, but the greenery and €25,000 price create genuine appeal for someone seeking a simple Lazio retreat. The interiors appear habitable, while the roof detailing, damp, and exterior condition need attention.
Certified wiring, water and drainage, a heat source, a roof that keeps the water out, one working bathroom. Facade, insulation, a second bathroom and the floors wait.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Our read of the photos, €700/m², falls in this band.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€10,000 – €17,000
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 roof edges and exposed timber eaves look seriously weathered and may require repair.
- Exterior walls show damp staining, cracking, and general maintenance needs.
- The 49 sqm layout is compact, with only one bedroom and a narrow, somewhat rough access lane.
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 61/100The cluster is in the Lepini foothills, with the Monti Lepini rising immediately to the south and west. The Sacco valley lies below the town. The area is tied to the old hill town of Artena, which has a large historic centre on the slope, and to Valmontone nearby, which provides the main rail and motorway services in this part of inland south Rome province. Within this radius the landscape is a mix of steep limestone slopes, olive groves and valley-floor settlement along the Rome–Naples corridor. The area is known locally for hillside historic towns on the edge of the Lepini range.
