This is explicitly an auction listing ("ASTA IMMOBILIARE"), which is a veto red flag for this catalog regardless of price. At €52,500 for 89 sqm (€590/sqm) it sits near the low Lazio villa baseline (€573/sqm), so the price alone is not enough to offset the auction risk.
More on the house and the area
This is a real, usable single-storey house with a sunny garden setting and a cheerful exterior, not a ruin or shell. The appeal comes more from privacy, greenery, and value than from architectural beauty or views. It feels habitable now, but it is a modest suburban villa that would benefit from cosmetic updating rather than a dream-level showstopper.
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€6,000 – €10,000
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.
- No real view or notable location is shown.
- Interior looks lived-in and usable but fairly ordinary, with some cosmetic refresh likely needed.
- Auction sale: check paperwork, occupancy status, and full tribunal documents.
- Bathroom/kitchen quality is not fully documented in the photos provided.
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 55/100This is within the built-up area of Rome, so the lived setting is urban fabric rather than a rural landscape. The Tiber runs through the city. Rome has first-rank historic monuments and UNESCO-listed historic areas, but for this cluster the surroundings are streets, dense neighbourhoods, main roads and city services.
