In the listingHabitableSee what needs doing and what each job costs
At €79,000 (€675/m²), the home is habitable but its estimated effective cost is about €875/m² after allowing €23,400 for upkeep and updates, well above comparable local pricing around €431/m². The garage, heating, furnishings and panoramic view add appeal, but the premium is substantial.
More on the house and the area
A genuinely habitable, furnished Abruzzo townhouse with bright traditional interiors, terrazzo floors, a substantial fireplace, garage, heating, and attractive rolling-hill views. It is more comfortable and usable than spectacular, with a plain weathered exterior and limited apparent outdoor space, but €79,000 for 117 sqm makes it a compelling real-home bargain.
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€8,000 – €13,000
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 exterior plaster and some outbuildings look weathered and may need maintenance.
- Only one bathroom is shown for a five-room, two-bedroom home.
- The setting appears residential rather than a dramatic hilltop or historic village location.
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 58/100The area lies on the low hills between the Adriatic coastal plain and the Gran Sasso–Laga Apennines. The Salinello and Tordino river valleys shape this part of the Teramo countryside, with cultivated ridges, olive groves and scattered villages. The nearest stretch of coast is the Adriatic around Giulianova, with sandy beaches and a fishing port. To the west, the Gran Sasso and Monti della Laga massifs are the dominant mountain backdrop for the province, but they are outside the immediate 15 km landscape. Teramo is the nearest town of size, with a cathedral, Roman remains and the main services of the provincial capital. This part of northern Abruzzo is known for mixed hill farming, olive oil and access between coast and interior.
