See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €60,000 (€500/m²), the apartment is below the local €547/m² benchmark, but it is explicitly described as needing renovation and partly used as a dental studio. Allowing roughly €84,000 for works brings the effective cost to about €1,200/m², with the additional professional spaces not clearly valued or described in detail.
More on the house and the area
This is a substantial, sunny apartment with a generous covered terrace, usable rooms, two bathrooms, parking, and a small leafy outdoor area. However, it feels more like a renovation and conversion project than a beautiful ready home: the interiors are plain, the kitchen is unfinished, and the old attic roof is in poor condition.
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€24,000 – €42,000
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 property is explicitly described as needing renovation and currently lacks a finished kitchen.
- The attic has a visibly deteriorated roof structure and is not a ready-to-use living space.
- The building appears partly residential and partly former professional/commercial use, so conversion and compliance should be verified.
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 sits on the low hills between the Adriatic coast and the first rises toward the Maiella massif, with the mountain range visible in clear weather but outside the immediate 15 km landscape. The Foro river runs nearby and reaches the Adriatic at Francavilla al Mare. Within roughly 15 km are the coast at Francavilla al Mare and Ortona, with beaches and a working port. Chieti is the nearest larger town, with a substantial historic centre, services, a university presence and museums. The area is known for vineyards and olive groves in the coastal hills, including Montepulciano d’Abruzzo wine production.
