What it really costs
Can you move in?
Livable, but something basic is worn out
In the listingHabitable- Sold at judicial auction
See what needs doing and what each job costs
This 108 m² villa is explicitly being sold through a judicial auction, which carries legal, financing, and occupancy risks despite the €90,001 asking price. The listing also conflicts with the facts on bathrooms, reporting two in the description but none in the property data.
More on the house and the area
This appears to be a usable independent villa with three bedrooms, terraces, balconies, a garage, and outdoor space in a pleasantly wooded setting. However, the only visible photo is a generic tree-lined road, so there is no demonstrated view, architectural character, or standout interior to create a strong dream-home effect.
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€7,000 – €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.
- The gallery image shows only a leafy access road, not the villa’s interior or exterior.
- Auction purchase requires careful legal, occupancy, and condition checks.
- The property is described as habitable, but the listing gives little visual proof of its current condition or appeal.
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 sits on the L'Aquila basin under the Gran Sasso group, with the higher mass of the range visible and close to the north-east. The Aterno valley runs through this part of the basin. The area is inside the Gran Sasso e Monti della Laga National Park margin and close to the Sirente-Velino Regional Park, so the immediate setting is a mountain basin with protected Apennine slopes nearby. The nearest ski area is Campo Imperatore on Gran Sasso, roughly an hour by road depending on the access point and season. L'Aquila is the nearest town of size and has a substantial historic centre, services, schools, hospitals and major monuments including the Basilica di Collemaggio and the Fontana delle 99 Cannelle. This part of inland Abruzzo is known for mountain pastures, saffron around Navelli, and stone villages damaged and rebuilt after the 2009 earthquake.
