What it really costs

Why this price is what it is

This is a judicial auction with a €30,691 minimum bid, which is an automatic trap under the scoring rules despite the low €224/m² asking figure. The 137 m² home also includes a rough attic and external works, while the facts list 0 baths despite the description claiming two, so legal and physical due diligence is essential.

More on the house and the area
What the photos show

A spacious independent house with a generous covered porch, garage, open surroundings and glimpses of wooded hills. The main 137 m² floor appears occupied and functional with three bedrooms and two bathrooms, but the attic is a raw shell and the exterior is unfinished, so this is a practical bargain rather than a polished dream home.

Minimum to live in it350500/m²
€48,000 – €69,000

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.

Materials only, work you may do yourself€27,000 – €48,000

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.

What worries us about this house
  • The ground floor appears usable, but the attic and some exterior areas are explicitly unfinished.
  • Rural access is via a short unpaved inter-farm road.
  • This is an auction property, and the listing warns that images and some details may require verification.

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 53/100

The area sits in the low hills between the Pescara River basin and the Adriatic side of Abruzzo, with a landscape of cultivated slopes, olive groves and scattered villages. The Pescara River runs to the north of Pianella, and the foothill mass of the Maiella is visible farther inland but not within the immediate 15 km landscape. Chieti and Pescara are the nearest larger centres, with full services, rail links, hospitals and retail areas. This part of Abruzzo is known for olive oil and wine production.
