Price 75,000€ for 152 m2 (493€/m2) but the listing does not state the condition; assuming modest works at 200€/m2 (~30,400€) yields an effective price ≈105,400€ or ≈693€/m2, well above the Abruzzo median of 436€/m2. Nice town-centre location and many photos are positives, but the high implied renovation-adjusted cost makes this an overpriced offering.
More on the house and the area
Solid, full house in the centre of Raiano with a private courtyard and some characterful features (fireplace, shutters, original tiles). The layout looks liveable but the interior is dated and shows damp/plaster issues and needs updating; excellent value for the size and location.
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.
- Dated interiors and finishes — will need modernization (kitchen/bathrooms).
- Visible damp/peeling plaster around the fireplace and on some walls.
- Only a small private courtyard — no large garden or notable views.
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 71/100The cluster sits in the Peligna valley under the Central Apennines, with the Morrone massif close by and the Maiella rising to the east within the wider area. The Aterno river runs through this part of the valley. The Maiella National Park begins nearby on the mountain side east of the valley. Sulmona is the nearest town of size, with a substantial historic centre, rail connections and services. This area is known for vineyards and olive groves in the valley and for access to the mountain villages and hermitages on the Maiella and Morrone slopes.
