What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €60,000 (€690/m²), the asking price is already above the Lazio country-house baseline of €621/m²; allowing roughly €17,400 for likely updating brings the effective cost to about €890/m². The historic-center location and two bathrooms add value, but the unspecified condition and pending energy certificate limit confidence.
More on the house and the area
A genuinely characterful independent home in Montefiascone’s historic center, with beautiful exposed-stone architecture, a cobbled approach, timber beams, terracotta floors, and a fireplace. It is clearly a real, furnished, move-in-capable house with two bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a functioning kitchen, although the finishes are dated rather than turnkey-modern. At €60,000 for 87 sqm, the historic character and livability create a particularly compelling bargain.
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.
- Interiors and bathrooms are usable but visibly dated and may need cosmetic updating.
- No garden, terrace, or notable view is shown; the home is in a dense historic-center setting.
- Energy rating and exact technical condition are not yet 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.
