See what needs doing and what each job costs
€87,000 plus an estimated €700/m2 renovation (~€49,000) gives an effective price of ≈€136,000 (≈€1,943/m2), far above the Lazio sub‑100k baseline of €585/m2. The property is regularized as a dwelling with a large 1,500 m2 garden and 12 photos, but the high renovation burden makes this an overpriced renovation project.
More on the house and the area
A large, private 1,500 m² garden is the main attraction and gives real outdoor living potential. The house is a dated but habitable 1980 prefab — livable now with updates, better as a renovation project to modernize interiors and systems. Good value for land near Palestrina, though not a photogenic historic property.
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€14,000 – €25,000
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.
Bringing a house that has stood empty back into service: new water, sewer and electricity, plus the practices. The same sum on an 80 m² house and on a 300 m² one, which is why a €40,000 house is not a €40,000 project.

- Dated 1980 prefab construction that will need renovation and modernization (cosmetic and some systems work).
- Small footprint with only one bathroom and compact rooms.
- Not a historic or scenic villa — modest appearance, value is mainly the large private garden/land.
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 Lepini Mountains rise immediately east of Artena, with limestone ridges and foothill slopes shaping the area within a few kilometres. The Sacco valley lies alongside the town and forms the main lowland landscape here. The Monti Lepini are included in the Monti Lepini area protected by the regional park system of Lazio, with mountain roads and trail access on the eastern side of town. Valmontone is the nearest larger town and provides rail access, motorway connections and the main everyday services for the area. The wider zone is known for olive groves, hillside historic centres and the old route between Rome and the inland Ciociaria towns.
