This listing is a judicial auction (ASTA), which carries legal and procedural risks—check tribunal documentation before bidding. All-in price with basic habitable renovation ≈ €130,500 (≈€363/m2) versus local median €585/m2, but the auction status makes this unsuitable for a normal purchase process.
More on the house and the area
Beautiful historic building with intact frescoed ceilings and carved doorways plus a photogenic stone façade; the bones and period features are real. Interior is cluttered and shows water damage and worn ceilings, so expect a moderate renovation but this is a strong bargain for a character-filled, livable project.
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€24,000 – €40,000
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.
- Property sold at auction — verify title/claims and consult an attorney.
- Interior needs clearing and renovation; visible water damage/peeling plaster and some ceilings require repair.
- Mixed/multi-unit layout (former pharmacy + deposits) — may need reconfiguration for single-family use.
- Narrow hillside street and limited parking/access.
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 62/100The cluster is on the southern Lepini hills, with limestone slopes and views over the Pontine plain. The Amaseno river valley lies nearby inland, and the Tyrrhenian coast around Terracina is about 15 km away. Circeo National Park begins farther west on the coastal side, outside the immediate radius. The nearest larger town is Terracina, which has a substantial seafront town, services, and the Roman Temple of Jupiter Anxur above the coast. The area is known for olive groves on the hills and for the transition from the Lepini uplands to the reclaimed Pontine plain.
