What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €35,000 for 50 sqm, the ask is €700/sqm; with a likely renovation budget of about €700/sqm given the vague condition and very limited listing detail, the effective cost is roughly €1,400/sqm versus a low-stock baseline of €419/sqm. Historic-centre setting is a small positive, but only 1 photo and missing condition data make this look ordinary to weak rather than a standout deal.
More on the house and the area
This is a characterful little village house with a pleasing old-centre setting, arched openings and a photogenic facade. It looks like a real, usable home rather than a ruin, but the lack of interior photos keeps the wow limited and the livability unverified. At €35k it has some bargain appeal, though the beauty here is modest rather than dream-home level.
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€10,000 – €18,000
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.
- Only one exterior photo, so interior charm and condition are unproven
- No real view or outdoor living space beyond a small balcony
- Historic-centre access/stairs may be awkward
- Likely compact rooms at just 50 sqm
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 55/100The cluster is in the built-up area of L’Aquila, so the setting is an inland provincial city in the Aterno valley under the Gran Sasso group and the Sirente-Velino range. Gran Sasso e Monti della Laga National Park begins just east of the city, with Campo Imperatore and the higher Gran Sasso massif within the local mountain setting. The Aterno River runs through the basin. The nearest ski lifts are at Campo Felice and Campo Imperatore, both roughly 30–40 minutes by road depending on the access point and season. L’Aquila is the nearest town of size and has the regional institutions, university, major services, and a substantial historic centre under reconstruction after the 2009 earthquake. The area is known for its mountain basin setting and as the main urban centre of inland Abruzzo.
