What it really costs

Condition not stated in the listingSee what needs doing and what each job costs
The house appears habitable, but allowing about €200/m² for updates brings the effective cost to roughly €816/m², well above the €386/m² local benchmark. Its spacious layout, garden and proximity to Pescara and the sea add value, but not enough to justify the premium; the listing does not state the construction year or precise condition.
More on the house and the area
A genuinely livable, spacious country home with a warm traditional interior, complete kitchen, three bathrooms, bedrooms, balconies, and working-looking heating features. The garden, planted stone terrace, and hillside outlook add real lifestyle appeal, although the exterior setting is modest rather than spectacular and the house is more cozy and personal than polished.
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€11,000 – €18,000
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 house is semi-detached and sits directly beside a somewhat rough residential road, so privacy is limited.
- Energy class F suggests relatively high running costs or future efficiency upgrades.
- The exterior courtyard and garden areas look usable but would benefit from tidying and landscaping.
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.
