See what needs doing and what each job costs
The €69,000 price is only €286/m², but this is a reinforced-concrete shell requiring substantial completion; at an estimated €900/m², the effective cost is about €1,186/m², far above the local €389/m² reference. The listing does not state the current completion percentage, permits, utilities, or exact costs needed to make it habitable.
More on the house and the area
The open hillside panorama toward the Abruzzo countryside and distant sea is genuinely attractive, with a private garden and large planned terraces. However, the property is only a raw reinforced-concrete structure with unfinished columns, floors, stairs, and no usable living spaces, so it is a major villa project rather than a home you can live in now.
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, €900/m², falls in this band.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€48,000 – €85,000
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.
- This is a reinforced-concrete shell under construction, not a livable house.
- No finished interiors, kitchen, bathrooms, utilities, or visible finished roof/windows are shown.
- Completion costs, permits, structural compliance, and the feasibility of the approved project need careful verification.
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 is in the rolling inland hills between the lower Sangro valley and the Adriatic side of Abruzzo. The Sangro river system is the main named landscape feature nearby, with mixed farmland, olive groves and scattered hill settlements around Atessa. The Maiella massif rises to the west but it is outside the immediate 15 km landscape. The nearest larger centre is Lanciano, which has a substantial historic centre, services and rail access toward the coast. This part of the province is known for olive growing, vineyards and hilltop towns tied to the Sangro valley.
