Why this price is what it is

The €515/m² asking price is 14% below the Lazio townhouse baseline of €600/m², but estimated habitable-property costs of €200/m² raise the effective price to about €715/m², above the baseline. The listing has only 1 photo, no energy class or building year, and the facts report 0 bathrooms despite the description mentioning a bathroom.

More on the house and the area
What the photos show

This is a reasonably sized, habitable three-level townhouse with a practical layout, heating, and an exclusive terrace. However, the available image shows only the surrounding area and provides no visual evidence of historic character, attractive views, or interior quality, so the home does not currently create a strong dream-home impression.

Updating, not renovation
€20,000 – €28,000

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€7,000 – €11,000

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.

What worries us about this house
  • Only one map/location image is provided, with no proof of the property's interior, exterior, views, or terrace.
  • The listing is described as habitable, but the facts show 0 bathrooms despite the description mentioning one; verify the actual layout and utilities.
  • A soffitta and terrace are included, but their condition and usability are unknown.

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.
