The €43,000 asking price is attractive at about €269/m², and the home is near Tollo's center and roughly 5 km from the sea. However, it is completely to renovate: after an estimated €176,000 renovation, the effective cost is about €1,369/m², far above comparable local offerings; construction age and energy performance are not stated.
More on the house and the area
This is a sizeable traditional two-level house with an intact roof, old shutters, tiled floors, and a small overgrown yard. However, the interiors are very tired and visibly affected by damp, with a complete renovation needed before it becomes a comfortable home. The industrial surroundings offer little scenic or lifestyle appeal.
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€63,000 – €94,000
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.
- Completely to be renovated, as stated in the listing.
- Visible damp, peeling finishes, stained ceilings, and neglected exterior areas.
- Industrial surroundings and roadside setting reduce the dream-home appeal; only one bathroom is listed.
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 62/100The area lies on the Adriatic side of the Chieti hills, with vineyards and olive groves between the coast and the first rises toward the Abruzzo interior. The Adriatic coast is close, with the beach resorts of the Ortona area within about 15 km, and the Costa dei Trabocchi begins just to the south around Ortona and San Vito Chietino. The Foro and Arielli valleys shape this stretch of countryside. Ortona is the nearest town of size, with a port, a historic center, and rail access. This part of Abruzzo is known for wine production, especially Montepulciano d'Abruzzo from the Tollo area.
