Veto: the listing is explicitly a judicial auction ("ASTA IMMOBILIARE"), which makes it unsuitable for this catalog despite a seemingly low €505/m² versus the €573/m² baseline. Condition appears habitable, so renovation is estimated around €200/m², but the auction status overrides pricing.
More on the house and the area
This is a real, usable home rather than a shell: furnished rooms, kitchen, stairs, terrace area and a garage/taverna are all visible. The outside has a bit of private greenery, but the architecture and setting are quite ordinary and there is little character or scenic appeal. Value for the size is strong, yet it looks more like a practical residence needing refreshment than a dream Italian home.
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€12,000 – €20,000
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.
- Interiors look dated and cluttered rather than attractive.
- Auction sale: due diligence on legal/occupancy status is essential.
- No bathroom photos shown, so finish level there is unproven.
- Terraced villa setting is suburban and offers no notable view.
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 68/100The area sits in the low Cimini-Sabatini volcanic countryside, with wooded tufa hills, cultivated land and ravines. Lake Bracciano lies within reach to the southeast, and the Treja valley with Monte Gelato waterfalls is nearby. The Parco Regionale dell’Antichissima Città di Sutri preserves the tufa amphitheatre, necropolis and archaeological area on the edge of the town. Viterbo is the nearest larger town, with a substantial medieval centre and services. Sutri is known for its Etruscan and Roman archaeological remains and for its position on the Via Cassia and Via Francigena.
