Condition not stated in the listing- Sold at judicial auction
See what needs doing and what each job costs
This is a judicial-auction property, so the very low €6,647 price is not a normal direct sale and carries significant legal and purchasing risk. The advertised 185 m² is only an estimate derived from similar homes, the listing does not state the condition, and the photos are explicitly indicative rather than real.
More on the house and the area
The described layout is a genuine two-level townhouse with a kitchen, living area, two bathrooms, bedroom, and small balconies, making it potentially usable rather than a bare shell. However, the polished interiors shown are generic reference images, not evidence of this home’s beauty or condition; the main appeal is the extraordinarily low auction price.
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€37,000 – €65,000
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.
- The listing explicitly says the photos are illustrative and not the actual property, so the attractive interiors cannot be credited.
- This is a court-auction purchase with legal, occupancy, and handover risks.
- The published 185 sqm is only an estimate based on similar properties, not the official measurement.
- Actual condition, utilities, heating performance, and renovation needs are unverified.
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 lies in the Peligna valley with the Morrone massif immediately to the east and the Maiella massif close to the south-east. The Sagittario and Aterno-Gizio river system shapes the wider valley around Sulmona. The Maiella National Park begins nearby on the mountain side above the valley. Sulmona is the nearest town of size and has a substantial historic centre, rail connections and services. The area is known for the enclosed intermontane basin of the Peligna and for access into the Maiella and the gorges toward the upper Sagittario valley.
