Asking €75,000 (€395/m2) for 190 m2 but estimated renovation €700/m2 → effective cost ≈€208,000 or ≈€1,094/m2, well above the Lazio median of €583/m2. The listing has photos (9) and is only 2 days on market, so the high effective price rather than lack of info explains the weak score.
More on the house and the area
Attractive stone casale with a classic arched entrance and intact, photogenic exterior set in a private 700 m² plot — lots of character for the price. The building appears to be a solid shell with missing windows/doors and requires comprehensive renovation (roof checks, interiors and utilities) before it is liveable. Good bargain for someone wanting to restore an authentic Lazio farmhouse, but budget accordingly.
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€38,000 – €67,000
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.

- Clearly needs full internal renovation — photos show open window voids and no interiors.
- Possible roof and structural repairs required (vegetation on roof/tile displacement visible).
- Utilities, plumbing and heating appear unconfirmed — expect new systems to be installed.
- Small plot (≈700 m²) gives privacy but not extensive land or views.
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 61/100The area sits in the Sacco valley below the Ernici Mountains. The Sacco River runs through this part of the province. Monti Ernici and the Simbruini uplands are the nearest mountain landscape, with the main ski area at Campocatino above Guarcino reached in about 45 minutes by road. Frosinone is the nearest larger town, with the main rail, hospital and shopping services for the area. Ferentino itself is known for its substantial polygonal and Roman walls and for its hilltop historic centre with churches and gates.
