What it really costs

Condition not stated in the listing
See what needs doing and what each job costs
Why this price is what it is

At €393/m², the asking price is below the Abruzzo country-house baseline of €456/m²; assuming habitable condition, effective cost is about €593/m² after €200/m² of work, making it ordinary rather than a bargain. The panoramic terrace and proximity to Lake Bomba add location appeal, but condition and building details are missing.

More on the house and the area
What the photos show

A substantial, furnished 150 sqm village house with two bathrooms, a fireplace, abundant storage, and a very large panoramic terrace overlooking the green hillside and dense Abruzzo landscape. The interiors are clean, complete, and clearly livable immediately, though dated rather than stylish; at €59,000, the combination of usable space, historic-borgo character, terrace, and setting creates strong dream-home appeal.

Updating, not renovation
€30,000 – €43,000

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€10,000 – €17,000

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 interiors are usable and furnished but dated, with likely cosmetic updating needed.
  • The large terrace appears highly valuable, but the gallery does not establish its privacy, structural condition, or exact panorama.
  • No information is shown for heating, utilities, energy class, or accessibility; the home is in a steep historic-borgo setting.

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 62/100

The area sits on the lower hills between the Adriatic coast and the inland Abruzzo uplands. The Sangro river valley is nearby, and the Costa dei Trabocchi on the Adriatic is about 10–15 km away, with trabocchi fishing structures and a cycle route along parts of the former railway line. The nearest larger centre is Chieti, while Lanciano itself has a substantial historic centre and is known for the Eucharistic Miracle shrine and for the Fiera di Sant’Egidio. The Maiella massif is visible farther inland but lies beyond the immediate 15 km landscape.
