This is explicitly an auction listing ("ASTA IMMOBILIARE"), which is a veto red flag for this catalog. The ad also conflicts with the facts: it is marked Habitable, but the text says "in stato di abbandono"; even before auction risk, €78,205 plus heavy works would not read as a clean buy.
More on the house and the area
This is a pleasant, usable-looking single-storey villa with a tidy exterior, private plot and a nice mountain backdrop. It feels more suburban-practical than magical, and the lack of interior photos plus the stated abandonment keeps the score down. Good value for the size if the inside is still broadly serviceable, but it is not a clear dream-home wow listing.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Our read of the photos, €1,100/m², falls in this band.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€51,000 – €75,000
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.
- No interior photos, so actual livability and finish level are unproven.
- Description says 'stato di abbandono', suggesting neglect despite the structurally decent exterior.
- Auction sale adds legal/process complexity.
- Garden/court appears overgrown and likely needs cleanup and maintenance.
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 68/100The cluster sits in the Telesina valley below the Matese mountains, with Monte Taburno and the Taburno-Camposauro massif also close by. Lake Telese is in the town, and the Calore Irpino and Volturno river systems shape the wider valley around it. The Taburno-Camposauro Regional Park lies nearby. The nearest larger town is Benevento, which has rail connections, services, a Roman theatre and the Arch of Trajan. The area is known for mineral springs and vineyards, especially Falanghina del Sannio.
