Why this price is what it is

At €398/m², the asking price is 13% below the Abruzzo baseline of €456/m², but the missing condition data warrants a modest €200/m² habitable-house allowance. Effective cost is approximately €598/m², above the baseline; the central location in Forme is a small positive.

More on the house and the area
What the photos show

A genuinely livable three-level country home with a warm rustic character: terracotta floors, a fireplace, wood staircase, arched details, and traditional furnishings. The house appears solid and ready to occupy, though it is more charming and practical than polished, with dated finishes and no standout view or exterior shown.

Updating, not renovation
€25,000 – €35,000

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€8,000 – €14,000

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.

Asking price + this range
€74,000 – €84,000
What worries us about this house
  • Interiors are fully furnished and usable but noticeably dated, especially the kitchen, bathrooms, and upstairs flooring.
  • Only one bathroom is shown for a five-bedroom layout.
  • No compelling exterior, garden, or panoramic view is visible in the gallery.

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 76/100

The Sirente-Velino range rises immediately above the area, with Monte Velino dominating the landscape. The cluster is on the edge of the Fucino basin, a large reclaimed plain under the mountains. Sirente Velino Regional Park lies in the surrounding area. The nearest substantial town is Avezzano, which provides the main rail links, supermarkets, hospital and everyday services for this part of Marsica. Alba Fucens, the Roman archaeological site below the village, is one of the main historic landmarks in the area. Ovindoli-Monte Magnola, the nearest significant ski lifts, is roughly a 30-minute drive depending on road conditions. The area is known for mountain pasture, the Fucino plain’s agriculture, and the Roman remains of Alba Fucens.
