Condition not stated in the listing- Sold at judicial auction
See what needs doing and what each job costs
This is a judicial auction with a €31,267 minimum offer, so it is vetoed regardless of the attractive €158/m² price versus €550/m² for comparable local apartments. The listing does not state the property's condition, occupancy status, or total purchase costs; renovation is therefore conservatively estimated at about €700/m².
More on the house and the area
This is a substantial, clearly usable two-storey home with multiple rooms, a planted paved courtyard, balcony, veranda, and plenty of everyday living space. Its appeal is practical rather than scenic or historic: the interiors are modest and dated, and the surrounding urban/railway setting does not provide a strong Italian dream-home atmosphere.
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€39,000 – €69,000
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.
- Judicial auction: the €31,267 offer price may not reflect the full acquisition cost.
- The property appears lived-in and furnished, but legal occupancy and handover timing require verification.
- Urban setting with railway tracks nearby and limited private outdoor space; no standout panorama is shown.
- Bathrooms and overall technical condition are not clearly documented in the photos.
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 cluster is in the hills around Chieti, between the Maiella massif to the southwest and the Adriatic lowlands to the east. The Pescara river valley is nearby and shapes the built-up corridor toward the coast. The Maiella National Park begins within this wider inland area, with the mountain block clearly present in the local landscape, though the main high-altitude scenery is farther inland. Chieti is the nearest town of size, with a substantial historic centre, cathedral, Roman remains, museums, and the main services for the area. This part of Abruzzo is known for olive groves, vineyards, and hill farming on ridges facing both the mountains and the sea.
