The €85,000 asking price becomes roughly €1,308/m² before completing this unfinished three-level villa; with about €1,100/m² of work, the effective cost is near €1,754/m² versus a local reference of €356/m². The large garden and 5,000 m² of adjoining agricultural land add appeal, but the property is currently only a raw shell.
More on the house and the area
A substantial three-level villa sits in a beautiful rolling Abruzzo landscape, with broad views over olive-covered hills and more than 5,000 sqm of surrounding land. However, the house is only a roofed masonry shell with bare concrete floors and no finished interiors, so it is a major project rather than a livable 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€51,000 – €76,000
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.
- Unfinished shell requiring extensive completion, including floors, plastering, windows, bathrooms, kitchen, utilities, and heating.
- Not currently habitable; construction and infrastructure costs could be substantial.
- Large agricultural land may involve planning or usage restrictions that should be verified.
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 61/100The 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.
