What it really costs
- Sold at judicial auction
See what needs doing and what each job costs
This is a judicial auction/pre-auction listing ('vendita giudiziaria', 'offerta minima'), which is an automatic veto for this catalog. The house is also stated to be in very poor condition ('pessimo stato di conservazione'), implying about €1,100/m2 renovation on top of the €59,500 price.
More on the house and the area
This is a functional townhouse volume with decent size and an external court, but the photos show no real view, no notable character, and only a very ordinary facade. It appears roofed and structurally like a real house rather than a shell, yet it is visibly cluttered, tired, and in poor condition, so it feels more like a heavy refresh/renovation project than a dream Italian home.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Our read of the photos, €1,100/m², falls in this band.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€53,000 – €78,000
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.
- Pessimo stato di conservazione stated in the listing/CTU.
- Overgrown external court/garden needs major cleanup.
- Auction sale at minimum bid price, with extra procedural risk.
- Bathrooms are not shown in photos, so usability is uncertain.
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 46/100The cluster is in the coastal plain south of Rome near the Tyrrhenian shore, with long low sandy coastline around Marina di Ardea and Tor San Lorenzo. The area is part of the Agro Romano, mostly flat and built up in strips between beach settlements, pine groves, fields and roads. The nearest larger urban centre is Rome to the north, and daily life here is tied more to the metropolitan fringe and coast road than to a distinct local landscape. Ardea is an ancient site with remains linked to the Volsci and a historic centre on a tufa rise, but the surroundings within about 15 km are mainly suburban coast and plain.
