After adding a realistic finish (~€12.4k = €225/m²) the effective price is about €1,370/m² (€75,375 total), roughly 2.3× the regional baseline of €585/m²; the listing also contradicts itself (marked Renovated but described as "allo stato grezzo"). Proximity to the sea (≈800 m) supports value but does not justify this large premium.
More on the house and the area
A small independent 55 sqm villa with private yard and drive, structurally roofed but offered as a raw shell. Great buy if you want a near‑sea project to finish to your taste, but not move‑in ready as shown.
Decoration, tired fittings, a bathroom or a kitchen. The house is liveable as it stands.
Our read of the photos is €225/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€4,000 – €7,000
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 shown is sold 'allo stato grezzo' — internal blockwork, no finished floors, fixtures, kitchen or bathroom.
- Clear signs of neglect and building debris; a clean-up and finishing trades are required.
- Verify utilities, building permits and whether the vendor offers the completion option described in the listing.
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 48/100This is on the Tyrrhenian coast south of Rome, with sandy shoreline and the mouth area of the Fosso di Campo di Carne and other coastal watercourses nearby. The coast here is part of the low Agro Romano littoral, with flat ground, dunes in stretches, pine woods and reclaimed farmland behind the beaches. Tor Caldara Regional Nature Reserve is nearby along the coast toward Anzio. The Alban Hills rise inland to the northeast but are outside the immediate 15 km landscape. The nearest large urban centre is Rome, and the built-up coastal belt between Torvaianica, Ardea marina and Anzio is a continuous residential and holiday-settlement strip in parts. Ancient Ardea is known for its archaeological area linked to the Rutuli and early Latium.
