Condition not stated in the listingSee what needs doing and what each job costs
The listing does not state the property's condition, so assuming 'needs renovation' (~€700/m²) gives renovation ≈€64,400 and a total ≈€89,400 (≈€972/m²). That effective price is well above the regional median of €423/m², so this looks overpriced for a renovation project.
More on the house and the area
Solid, roofed three-storey townhome in a quiet central street with an excellent mountain view and some nearby land/trees. Interiors are lived-in and dated but usable — a real, affordable village home that needs mainly cosmetic work and decluttering to become a charming full-time residence.
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€18,000 – €32,000
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 interior that needs cosmetic updating (kitchen/bathrooms, finishes).
- Ground-floor garage/storage areas cluttered and will need clearing/repurposing.
- Narrow village street with limited on-street parking; check heating/plumbing systems (wood stove shown).
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 72/100The cluster is on the eastern side of the Maiella massif, with the Maiella mountains and the slopes above the Aventino valley within the local landscape. The Aventino river valley is the main nearby geographic feature. The Maiella National Park lies close by on this side of inland Chieti province. The nearest ski area is Passolanciano-Maielletta on the Maiella, roughly an hour's drive depending on road conditions. The nearest town of some size is Casoli, which has everyday services and a castle in its historic centre; Lanciano is the larger town for hospitals, schools and rail connections. This area is known for mountain villages, forested slopes, shepherding country and views across the inland Abruzzo hills toward the Adriatic side.
