What it really costs
Can you move in?
Not before the basics are done
Condition not stated in the listingSee what needs doing and what each job costs
At €80,000 for 250 m², the estimated renovation-adjusted cost is about €1,020/m², well above the €453/m² local comparison level. The 25,000 m² agricultural land may add value, but the house needs renovation and the listing provides only one photo and very few details.
More on the house and the area
The listing offers a large country house and an unusually substantial plot near Abruzzo’s coast, but there is no visible evidence of beauty, views, or historic character. It is explicitly a renovation property, and with only a placeholder image, its real livability cannot be established.
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.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Our read of the photos, €700/m², falls in this band.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€50,000 – €88,000
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.
- No usable property photos are available.
- The house is explicitly sold for renovation.
- Condition, utilities, roof, and legal status are unverified.
- The 25,000 m² agricultural land may have usage restrictions.
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 58/100The area sits on the lower slopes between the Maiella massif and the Adriatic side hills, with a landscape of vineyards, olive groves and cultivated ridges. The Foro river valley is nearby, and the coast around Ortona is within the wider surrounding area beyond the immediate inland hills. The Maiella National Park begins farther inland, and the mountain is a constant presence to the west, but the protected high mountain landscape is outside the immediate 15 km radius. Ortona is the nearest larger town, with a port, rail station and services. This part of Abruzzo is known for wine production, especially Montepulciano d'Abruzzo and olive oil.
