See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €59,000 (€246/m²), the asking price is well below the local reference of €383/m², but the old 240 m² building needs substantial renovation. Adding an estimated €168,000 in works puts the effective cost near €946/m², with only one bathroom and an energy rating of G.
More on the house and the area
A distinctive historic palazzetto with decorative façades, balconies, a large terrace, private garden, and striking mountain scenery. The house is substantial and appears structurally usable, with furnished living areas, a fireplace, radiators, and finished floors, but it is an old, partly worn home needing meaningful renovation rather than a move-in-ready residence.
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€48,000 – €84,000
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 clearly needs renovation, including peeling exterior finishes and some rough interior spaces.
- Only one bathroom is listed for a large 240 sqm home.
- Energy class G and the condition of utilities/heating should be checked.
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 71/100The cluster sits in the upper Liri valley with the central Apennines close around it, and the Simbruini mountains rise immediately to the west on the Lazio border. The Liri river runs through this part of the valley. The western side of the 15 km area reaches the Abruzzo, Lazio e Molise National Park around Bisegna and the Cicerana reserve lies nearby above the valley. The nearest substantial town is Avezzano, which provides the main rail and road services, hospitals and larger shops for this part of inland Abruzzo. This stretch of Marsica is known for mountain villages above a river valley and for access into the protected Apennine interior.
