What it really costs
Can you move in?
Livable, but something basic is worn out
In the listingHabitable- Sold at judicial auction
See what needs doing and what each job costs
This is explicitly an asta immobiliare (judicial auction), which is a veto red flag regardless of the €409/m² asking price. The effective habitable-property estimate would be about €609/m² including €200/m² renovation, but auction risk dominates.
More on the house and the area
This is a real, roofed rural home with a usable living room and some practical features, rather than an empty shell. However, it is visually ordinary, with dated interiors, a somewhat neglected exterior, and no clearly demonstrated view, historic character, or standout garden; the reported lack of bathrooms is a significant concern.
Decoration, tired fittings, a bathroom or a kitchen. The house is liveable as it stands.
Our read of the photos is €200/m². There is no published price band below €350/m², so the range is that figure widened by the spread of the lightest band.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€6,000 – €10,000
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.
- Auction purchase requires thorough legal and tribunal-document checks.
- The listing reports zero bathrooms, so essential facilities and permit status need verification.
- Interiors appear usable but dated and cluttered, while the exterior needs cosmetic upkeep.
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 63/100The area sits on the hills between the Maiella massif and the Adriatic, in a landscape of cultivated ridges, small valleys and scattered villages. The Foro and Alento river valleys are nearby, and the Adriatic coast around Francavilla al Mare and Ortona is within the local orbit. Maiella National Park begins inland, with the nearest access around Guardiagrele and the eastern foothills; the mountain is a constant presence from this part of Chieti province. The nearest larger town is Chieti, which has a substantial historic centre, services and Roman remains, and Pescara is the main city of the area for rail, airport and shopping. Bucchianico is known as the birthplace of San Camillo de Lellis.
