The listing is explicitly an auction ("asta immobiliare"), which is a veto red flag for this catalog. It is also described as a "fabbricato rurale", so despite the low asking price of €301/m² versus a €573/m² baseline, this is not a standard straightforward dwelling purchase.
More on the house and the area
The stone facade and old arched openings have rustic character, and there are a few evocative historic details inside like the vaulted storage space. But this does not read as a ready home: the interiors look basic to derelict, with outdated finishes, clutter, and likely missing essential modern amenities. At this price it has bargain appeal, yet the dream is more renovation project than beautiful livable house.
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€30,000 – €54,000
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.
- Interiors look very neglected and likely need major renovation.
- No bathroom is shown and the listing states 0 baths.
- Property appears to sit directly on the road with no obvious private outdoor space.
- Auction sale: documentation and true condition should be checked carefully.
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 72/100The cluster lies in the upper Velino valley at the foot of Monte Terminillo and the Reatini Mountains. The Velino river system and the Santa Susanna springs are in this part of the plain, and the area is closely tied to the Piana Reatina landscape. The Monti della Laga and Gran Sasso are farther east on the Abruzzo side and form part of the wider mountain horizon, but they are beyond the immediate 15 km landscape. The nearest ski lifts are on Monte Terminillo, about 30-40 minutes by road depending on the exact hamlet. Rieti is the nearest town of size and provides the main services, rail and road links, and a substantial historic centre. The area is known for mountain valleys, karst springs, and the chain of small lakes around Cittaducale and the Rieti plain, with Lago di Piediluco farther away outside the immediate radius.
