Why this price is what it is

At €447/m², the €85,000 asking price is already about 16% above the local benchmark before accounting for renovation. The 1810 three-level house has strong historic-center appeal and generous space, but its condition, energy performance, and renovation needs are not stated; allowing roughly €700/m² makes the effective cost unattractive.

More on the house and the area
What the photos show

A large 1810 town house with 190 m², five bedrooms and two bathrooms, offered at a notably low price for the space. The tiled stove, traditional furnishings and old-town setting provide some character, while the house appears roofed and broadly livable rather than a renovation shell. It lacks a proven panoramic view or standout exterior, and the dated condition keeps it below the dream-home tier.

Minimum to live in it€350–500/m²
€67,000 – €95,000

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.

€114,000 – €171,000

All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.

Our read of the photos, €700/m², falls in this band.

€228,000 – €285,000

Turnkey, facade and insulation included.

Materials only, work you may do yourself€38,000 – €67,000

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.

What worries us about this house
  • Interiors are fully furnished and usable but distinctly dated, with likely cosmetic modernization needed.
  • The exterior shows visible cracking, exposed wiring and aging shutters; roof and structural condition should be professionally checked.
  • The garden, utilities and actual maintenance status are not clearly documented in the photos.
  • The multi-level layout has several narrow, steep staircases.

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 72/100

The cluster sits in the upper Sangro-Aventino Apennines, with mountain country on all sides and the Abruzzo, Lazio e Molise National Park lying just to the west within the 15 km radius. The Sangro valley is the main local landform. The nearest ski area is Roccaraso-Aremogna, roughly 35–45 minutes by road depending on the lift base. The nearest town of size is Agnone, which has services, a preserved hill-town centre and is known for the Marinelli bell foundry. This border area between Molise and Abruzzo is known for high pasture, woods, and small mountain villages rather than for a single famous monument.
