What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €69,000 for 113 sqm, the ask is about €611/sqm; assuming habitable condition from the description, the effective cost is roughly €811/sqm including light works. That sits well above the low Abruzzo country-house baseline of €432/sqm, though the independent entrance, panoramic setting and included agricultural land support some value.
More on the house and the area
This is a real, usable home: clean, furnished, with kitchen, bathrooms, bedrooms and balconies already in place. The bright yellow exterior, leafy setting and open hillside outlook give it charm, even if the interiors are more simple than spectacular. At €69k for 113 sqm, it feels like a believable live-in Italian home rather than a restoration project.
Decoration, tired fittings, a bathroom or a kitchen. The house is liveable as it stands.
Our read of the photos is €200/m². There is no published price band below €350/m², so the range is that figure widened by the spread of the lightest band.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€8,000 – €12,000
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 are pleasant and ready to use, but fairly modern/plain rather than deeply characterful.
- The outlook is green and open rather than truly dramatic panoramic scenery.
- Agricultural land is mentioned, but the photos show only modest garden/outdoor areas.
- Three-level layout may not suit everyone.
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 Gran Sasso massif rises west of Basciano, with the highest Abruzzo peaks visible across the inland Teramo hills. The Vomano river valley runs through this part of the province. Gran Sasso e Monti della Laga National Park begins to the west, with the nearest access around the Montorio al Vomano side. The nearest larger town is Teramo, which has a cathedral, a Roman theatre and the usual provincial services. This area is known for mixed hill farming between the Adriatic side and the Gran Sasso foothills.
