Why this price is what it is

Although advertised as renovated, the description says the villa is still a raw shell requiring major completion. At €85,000 (€680/m²) plus an estimated €1100/m² renovation, the effective cost is about €1,360/m²—far above the local €356/m² benchmark.

More on the house and the area
What the photos show

The house has a pleasant elevated setting overlooking rolling green hills and comes with a substantial surrounding plot. However, despite the completed roof and structural frame, it is clearly an uninhabitable shell requiring a full fit-out rather than a move-in home.

Our read of the photos, €1,100/m², falls in this band.

Materials only, work you may do yourself€50,000 – €73,000

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.

What worries us about this house
  • The property is an unfinished shell: bare brick walls, concrete floors, no doors, fixtures, kitchen, or bathrooms visible.
  • Substantial completion work is required, including plastering, flooring, windows, utilities, heating, and interior finishes.
  • The 5,000+ sqm land and utility connections should be verified; the sloping terrain may add landscaping and access costs.

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 61/100

The cluster is in the hills around Chieti, between the Maiella massif to the southwest and the Adriatic lowlands to the east. The Pescara river valley is nearby and shapes the built-up corridor toward the coast. The Maiella National Park begins within this wider inland area, with the mountain block clearly present in the local landscape, though the main high-altitude scenery is farther inland. Chieti is the nearest town of size, with a substantial historic centre, cathedral, Roman remains, museums, and the main services for the area. This part of Abruzzo is known for olive groves, vineyards, and hill farming on ridges facing both the mountains and the sea.
