Condition not stated in the listingSee what needs doing and what each job costs
At €43,000 (€453/m²), the asking price is 24% below the local €594/m² reference, with a private entrance, garden, parking and terrace. However, the listing does not state the condition or key technical details; allowing roughly €700/m² for renovation brings the effective cost to about €1,153/m², weakening the deal.
More on the house and the area
A genuinely usable 95 sqm townhouse with two bedrooms, a functioning kitchen and bathroom, a fireplace, private entrance, garden and terrace. The distant green hillside view adds appeal, while the €43,000 price is compelling, but the home is plain and dated rather than characterful or spectacular.
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€19,000 – €34,000
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 are dated and need cleaning, repainting, and cosmetic updating.
- The private garden is currently quite overgrown.
- Only one bathroom is shown, and the property appears to be in a fairly ordinary residential setting rather than a historic village.
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 Sabine hills are the immediate landscape here, with olive groves, low ridges and small valleys. The Tiber valley lies nearby to the west, and the Farfa stream and the Abbey of Farfa are within the area. Monti Lucretili are nearby to the south-west, with the regional park covering part of that range. The nearest town of size in daily use is Monterotondo toward Rome, while Rieti is farther up the inland valley; the local rail link also ties the area to Rome. This part of Sabina is known for olive oil and abbey villages.
