A3

Green home · Class A

In the top band of the energy scale

It says so on the filed energy performance certificate, not on an estimate: class A3, with a non-renewable energy need of 46.29 kWh/m² a year.

The class compares the home with a reference building of the same shape in the same place, built to the 2019–2021 requirements with standard systems. In class A3 the home uses between 40% and 60% of that building's non-renewable energy; a class G home uses more than three and a half times as much.

What sets it apart

0

Steps from the road to the home, and inside.

You go down the ramp to the door, and inside everything is on one level: 175 m², with the sea-facing terrace level with the living room. Of the garden, the east side is at the same height as the house; in front, towards the gulf, the lawn is lower and six steps lead down to it.

  • Sea-facing terrace · 41.40 m²
  • Portico · 11.60 m²
  • Three parking spaces under the canopy

›The full description

In the Fontanella district, on the ridge looking out over the gulf: the ground floor of a semi-detached house completed in 2023. First occupancy, never lived in.

The point here is that everything is on one level. No stairs to reach it and none inside: you come in through the portico and you are already home. One hundred and seventy-five metres of ground floor, 2.55 m internal height throughout, arranged around a 71.70 sqm living space with kitchen. From there a continuous glazed wall opens to the outside.

And the outside is what surprises: 252 sqm of garden and grounds, all flat, with a 216-metre grill terrace facing the sea, a 41-metre sea-facing terrace and an 11-metre loggia. Provision for a swimming pool is in place.

Besides the living space there are two ancillary rooms of 26.00 and 21.70 metres, three service rooms, a hallway, an entrance lobby and a plant room.

Underfloor heating served by an air-to-water heat pump, cooling by an air-to-air heat pump, both installed in 2023. Energy class A3, performance index 46.29 kWh/sqm year. Triple-glazed PVC windows. Three covered parking spaces under a carport on 54 sqm of forecourt.

Weighted commercial area 222.40 sqm. Cadastral category A/2, class 4, cadastral income € 1,139: the property does not fall into the "luxury" bracket for tax purposes.

For anyone coming from a house full of stairs — or thinking about the next twenty years — that single level matters more than the square metres.

The upper unit, with its 106-metre panoramic terrace, sauna and a garage designed as a gym, is for sale separately at € 980,000. Taken together the two come to € 1,800,000.

total annual cost, fees included

A first estimate, made with the help of AI from official data: it is not a mortgage offer. The amount, rate and terms are decided by the bank after its own assessment.

TAN from the average of fixed-rate (over 10 years) mortgages signed in Italy in September 2026 (provisional): ECB, Bank of Italy data.

The guide: mortgages in Italy for non-residents

Italian banks usually lend non-residents 50-60% of the value: “I live abroad” redoes the maths.

How we do the maths

The rate

It is the average rate of fixed-rate (over 10 years) home loans signed in Italy in the month, collected from banks by the Bank of Italy and published by the ECB about five weeks later (harmonised MIR statistics). The TriesteVillas CRM downloads it every night: when a new month comes out, the figure here updates by itself. Fixed-rate loans use contracts fixed for the same term (up to 5 years, 5 to 10, over 10); variable-rate loans use variable-rate contracts. The published figure is a compound annual rate without fees: for the monthly payment it becomes the nominal rate, TAN = 12 × ((1 + rate)^(1/12) - 1). Latest data: September 2026, provisional.

Over a year this average moved from 3.31% (September 2025) to 3.65% (September 2026).

This month's offers may differ: the best ones are often below the average, with conditions (down payment, energy class, guarantees, insurance). That is why the rate above can be changed.

The payment

French amortisation, with a constant payment: R = C × i / (1 - (1 + i)^(-n)), where C is the capital, i the TAN divided by 12 and n the number of payments.

The APRC (TAEG)

The annual cost of the whole loan, computed with the cash flows of the EU directive: on top of interest, the costs usually paid to the bank and the State. Substitute tax 0.25% (€1,558), arrangement fee €1,000 (assumption), valuation €350, fire insurance €140 a year, payment collection €3 a month. The notary's fees stay out of the APRC, as the law provides (art. 120-quinquies of the Italian Banking Act): they are included in the cash needed at the deed. For comparison, the average APRC of home loans signed in Italy in September 2026 was 4.05%.

Cash at the deed

The down payment, the purchase taxes estimated for this home under the chosen regime, the agency fee with VAT, the loan costs paid at signing and the notary, for the purchase and for the mortgage. The notary is our estimate, given as a range, not a quote: since 2012 the fee is agreed with the notary, who, having seen the documents, gives a written estimate before being instructed. The bank lends on the value set by its own valuation: if the valuation comes in below the price, the loan goes down, not the price.

The income

The one-third rule comes from the Bank of Italy's consumer guide: a prudence measure for choosing an affordable payment, not the criterion a bank uses to decide. Every bank assesses income, expenses, age and guarantees on its own.

What it is not

It is not a credit offer or advice. TriesteVillas is not a bank, a credit broker or a credit agent, and not a mortgage comparison site. This calculator, built with the help of artificial intelligence, makes a first estimate from official data and the rules written here; the maths runs in the browser and nothing is saved.

Ground floor1 of 2

The plans include the cadastral floor plan, with personal data removed: it is the reference document. The others (from our 3D survey or design drawings) are for illustration only: they show where the rooms are, not their authorised use or habitability, and have no planning, cadastral or permit value.

What the documents say

In the land registry the home is a single main room with the living area; the two rooms of 26 and 21.7 m² are ancillary rooms, with a laundry, a storeroom and a bathroom. The design drawing shows them as bedrooms: a surveyor would say they are not bedrooms on paper, and for the names of the rooms the cadastral floor plan is what counts.

A preliminary reading of the documents, made with the help of artificial intelligence by comparing the cadastral floor plan with the listing. What counts is the check we carry out with you, documents in hand, before any commitment.
