See what needs doing and what each job costs
Although the €52,500 asking price for 89 m² is close to the local €585/m² benchmark, this property is explicitly being sold by judicial auction, which carries a decisive legal and purchasing risk. The listing also reports zero bathrooms in the facts while describing two bathrooms, so the documentation must be checked carefully.
More on the house and the area
The visible setting is leafy and semi-rural, with mature trees and a large garden reportedly included, but the image offers no proof of an attractive house or view. On paper it is a habitable 89 sqm villa with heating, garage, terrace, and multiple rooms, making it potentially usable rather than a renovation shell. Its main appeal is practical value near Rome, not a clearly demonstrated dream-home character.
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.
- The supplied image does not show the villa itself, so its architecture, interiors, views, and actual condition cannot be visually verified.
- This is an auction property, requiring careful review of tribunal documents, occupancy status, debts, and access.
- The facts list zero bathrooms, while the description states there are two; this must be clarified.
- No energy rating is 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.
