This is a C6 agricultural stable, not a dwelling, and conversion to residential use is only described as a possibility rather than confirmed. At about €1,491/m² after estimated renovation and conversion costs, it is far above the local €340/m² benchmark; utilities are present, but legal conversion, building age and energy performance are not stated.
More on the house and the area
The spectacular Abruzzo mountain panorama is the clear attraction, with views extending across a dramatic green valley from and around the building. However, this is a roofed but unfinished farmhouse/stable with raw interiors, no bathroom or kitchen, and no evidence of current residential habitability, so it is a major conversion project rather than a ready-to-live-in dream home.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Our read of the photos, €1,100/m², falls in this band.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€71,000 – €105,000
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.
Bringing a house that has stood empty back into service: new water, sewer and electricity, plus the practices. The same sum on an 80 m² house and on a 300 m² one, which is why a €40,000 house is not a €40,000 project.

- This is currently a C6 agricultural building/stable, not a licensed home; residential change of use is only described as a possibility.
- There are no bathrooms, bedrooms, or finished living spaces shown, and substantial renovation is required.
- The overgrown access and exterior suggest practical work will be needed before renovation can begin.
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 85/100Mountain village in the Central Apennines. The cluster lies inside the Parco Nazionale d'Abruzzo, Lazio e Molise. Surrounding terrain is mountain valleys, beech and conifer woodland and high summer pastures. The park area is managed for nature and supports populations of Apennine chamois and the Marsican brown bear. The nearest town of size is Pescasseroli, which serves as a local service and park hub with visitor information, shops, accommodation and guided-activity providers. Hiking and wildlife-watching are the main local outdoor activities; the Roccaraso–Rivisondoli ski area is roughly 30–40 km away by road.
