In the listingHabitableSee what needs doing and what each job costs
A habitable 81 m² townhouse at €59,000 is about €728/m² before allowance for modest upkeep, versus a local benchmark near €419/m²; its effective cost is roughly €928/m². Two levels, three bedrooms, heating, balcony, cellar and included furnishings add appeal, but the price is not discounted for this inland location.
More on the house and the area
A genuinely livable and characterful townhouse with warm terracotta floors, woodwork, a large brick fireplace, rustic kitchen, and an inviting open living-dining space. It is furnished and functional rather than a renovation shell, though the style is dated and there is no dramatic landscape view or private outdoor space shown. At €59,000, the combination of usable condition and strong traditional character is especially appealing.
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€5,000 – €9,000
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.
- One bathroom appears to have mechanical ventilation rather than a window.
- The third bedroom is small and appears to rely on a high-level window/lightwell.
- The home is attractive but dated, with older fixtures, appliances, and furnishings.
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 68/100The cluster is in the western Abruzzo Apennines, in the Marsica area between the Monte Simbruini and Carseolani mountain groups. Tagliacozzo has a substantial historic centre with medieval and Renaissance fabric and Piazza dell’Obelisco. The area is crossed by upper-valley landscapes and beech woods rather than open plain. The Simbruini Regional Park lies just to the west on the Lazio side. The nearest ski lifts are at Campo Staffi, roughly an hour by road depending on the exact starting point and winter conditions. Avezzano is the nearest larger town, with the main range of shops, services and rail connections in the area. The wider area is known for mountain walking, summer stays in the uplands, and the 1268 Battle of Tagliacozzo.
