What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €389/m², the asking price is slightly below the local €432/m² reference, with seismic work completed and a 22 m² garage. However, the 75 m² living area still needs internal finishing; allowing roughly €450/m² puts the estimated all-in cost near €76,000, so the discount is modest, and the listing does not say the energy class or construction year.
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.
Our read of the photos, €450/m², falls in this band.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€13,000 – €21,000
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.
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 72/100The cluster sits in the Peligna valley below the central Apennines, with the Morrone massif and the Majella range within this radius. The Sagittario valley begins nearby, and Sulmona is the nearest town of size, with a preserved historic centre, rail station and the main services for the area. The Majella National Park lies partly within this surrounding mountain area. The nearest ski slopes are at Passo San Leonardo on the Majella, roughly a 30 to 40 minute drive depending on road conditions. This part of Abruzzo is known for mountain villages, transhumance country and Sulmona’s confetti production.
