At €328/m², the asking price is about 28% below the local comparison level, making it attractive if the home is genuinely habitable. However, the listing does not state the condition and describes 175 habitable m² versus 250 m² in the headline, so the effective value needs verification.
More on the house and the area
This is a genuinely livable, generously sized country house with multiple furnished rooms, two bathrooms, working kitchens, air conditioning, a fireplace, and a welcoming covered outdoor area. The expansive Abruzzo hill-and-coastal views, garden planting, and €82,000 price for 250 sqm create a strong dream-of-living-here appeal, even though the interiors are more practical and dated than stylish.
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€17,000 – €28,000
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.
- Interiors are fully usable but dated, with older kitchens, furnishings, and finishes.
- The property appears close to a road, so outdoor privacy and traffic noise should be checked.
- Roof, utilities, heating, and overall legal/technical condition are not confirmed in the listing facts.
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 54/100The area sits in the inland hills between the lower Trigno valley and the Sangro-Trigno uplands, with a landscape of cultivated ridges, small woods and scattered villages. The Trigno river valley is nearby to the south. The Adriatic coast around San Salvo and Vasto is reachable for daily services and beaches, but it is outside the immediate landscape and does not raise the score. The nearest larger town is Vasto, which has a full range of shops, hospitals and rail connections. This part of southern Chieti is known for olive groves, mixed farming and small hilltop settlements.
