What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €65,000 for 130 sqm, the ask is €500/sqm; assuming habitable-but-not-renovated condition from the description and photo count, the effective cost is about €700/sqm including ~€200/sqm light works. That is above the local baseline of €436/sqm, so this looks ordinary to somewhat expensive for this catalog despite the central location and terrace.
More on the house and the area
This is a real, usable home with generous space over three levels, two bathrooms, and a panoramic terrace with open green views. The wow comes mostly from the terrace and the very low price per square metre, while the interiors feel basic, dated, and only modestly attractive. It looks livable now, but more practical than dreamy unless refreshed.
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€9,000 – €14,000
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 dated and fairly plain rather than characterful.
- Some rooms appear unfinished or recently patched and may need cosmetic work.
- Bathrooms are old-style and likely due for modernization.
- Terrace/view is the main appeal; exterior character is not shown.
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 63/100The Gran Sasso massif stands inland to the west and north-west, with the eastern Abruzzo foothills beginning around this part of the Vestina hills. The Tavo river valley is part of the local landscape, and the Adriatic coast around Montesilvano and Pescara is outside the 15 km radius but part of daily logistics. Loreto Aprutino has a substantial historic centre with the Acerbo collections and a hilltop setting over olive country. The area is known for olive groves and olive oil, with mixed cultivated hills typical of inland Pescara province.
