What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €144/m², the asking price is far below comparable country homes at about €454/m², but the 450 m² total includes a ground-floor structure whose condition and legal usability are not explained. The first-floor 7-room home is described as habitable, yet the unclear lower level could require substantial finishing or conversion work.
More on the house and the area
This is a spacious Abruzzo country house with genuinely appealing historic vaulted ceilings, exposed brick arches, tiled floors, and a fireplace. The main living level looks broadly habitable, but the lower floors are rustic and unfinished, so the property is a mixed-use home/project rather than a polished dream house.
Certified wiring, water and drainage, a heat source, a roof that keeps the water out, one working bathroom. Facade, insulation, a second bathroom and the floors wait.
Our read of the photos, €400/m², falls in this band.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€52,000 – €88,000
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.
- The attractive upper-floor living area appears usable, but finishes are basic and exposed wiring suggests updating is needed.
- Much of the ground floor is rough storage/workspace with unfinished surfaces, damp-looking walls, and substantial renovation potential.
- There is no convincing exterior, garden, or view shown, despite the very large stated floor area.
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 inland from the Adriatic coast around Ortona, with a mix of cultivated slopes and small valleys. The Adriatic is nearby, with the Costa dei Trabocchi south of Ortona and beaches and small harbours along this stretch of coast. The Moro River runs through the area south of Ortona. Ortona is the nearest town of size, with a port, a built historic centre, and the Aragonese Castle. The area is known for vineyards and olive groves, and for Montepulciano d’Abruzzo wine.
