What it really costs
Can you move in?
Not before the basics are done
In the listingNeeds renovationSee what needs doing and what each job costs
At €75,000 for 94 sqm, the asking price is €798/m²; with a needs-renovation estimate of about €650/m², the effective cost is roughly €1,448/m² versus a low-stock baseline of €417/m² in Abruzzo townhouses, so this is expensive for the catalog. The listing is well documented and near services, but the text is contradictory: it says both 'da ristrutturare' and 'ready to be lived in immediately'.
More on the house and the area
This is a real, usable house rather than a shell: furnished, with bathrooms, kitchen area, flooring, stairs and a long balcony terrace. The best wow comes from the light, greenery and open hillside/borgo views, especially for €75k near the coast. Visually it is modest and dated, with exterior wear and old-fashioned interiors, so the dream factor is more 'solid base with a nice outlook' than instant beauty.
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, €650/m², falls in this band.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€18,000 – €33,000
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.
Bringing a house that has stood empty back into service: new water, sewer and electricity, plus the practices. The same sum on an 80 m² house and on a 300 m² one, which is why a €40,000 house is not a €40,000 project.

No mains drain: add €2,000–4,500 for a septic tank. Listings never say, so ask.
- Exterior shows visible damp/staining and wants facade refresh.
- Interiors are dated and likely need renovation despite being usable now.
- No truly striking historic or design character in the photos.
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 55/100This is in the built-up area of Pescara on the Adriatic coastal plain at the mouth of the Aterno-Pescara River. The coast and beach are within the urban fabric, and the city has a port, a long seafront and the main services of a provincial capital. The Maiella massif is visible inland on clear days but lies well beyond the 15 km landscape around the cluster.
