What it really costs

Condition not stated in the listingSee what needs doing and what each job costs
Asking €470,000 for 171 m² (~€2,749/m²); even with a modest €200/m² renovation the effective price is ≈€2,949/m², far above typical regional offers (~€593/m²). Well-photographed Rome townhouse in a quiet residential quarter, but the listing’s high per‑m² price and missing condition/energy info make it overpriced for this catalog.
More on the house and the area
Spacious, well-kept three-level townhouse with attractive parquet floors, a stone fireplace and a generous covered terrace opening onto a private garden. This is a real, move-in home that may only need light cosmetic updating to feel completely modern.
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€11,000 – €19,000
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.
- Urban/residential location with no panoramic views
- Lived-in décor and some dated finishes — likely minor cosmetic updates needed
- Lower level/semi-basement areas have limited natural light
- Price is well above the typical 'bargain' range for cheap-property hunters
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 55/100This is inside the built-up area of Rome, on the north-west side of the city, so the lived setting is urban streets rather than a rural landscape. The Tiber runs through Rome. Vatican City and St Peter’s are in the city, and central Rome has UNESCO World Heritage status for its historic core. Daily amenities are those of a major capital city, with full rail, road, hospital, university and airport infrastructure.
