See what needs doing and what each job costs
This property is offered via a judicial auction (the ad repeatedly advertises 'asta'), so it cannot be purchased as a normal sale. Listed at EUR 42,697 (EUR 221/m2) and described as habitable — I estimate modest works ~EUR 200/m2 — but the ad says images are not the real photos and key data (energy class, year) are missing.
More on the house and the area
The photos show bright, contemporary, move‑in‑ready interiors and a stylish bathroom that feel like a comfortable family home. However the real listing is an occupied auction property and the exterior/setting is unremarkable, so verify actual photos, access and possession before getting excited.
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€13,000 – €21,000
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.
- Photos in the ad are stated as indicative/stock and may not show the real property.
- Property is listed in an auction and is currently occupied — expect legal/possession complications.
- No private garden or notable views shown; exterior is an ordinary multi‑unit building.
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 in the Marsica uplands on the edge of the Sirente-Velino area, with the Velino and Sirente groups forming the main mountain backdrop within this part of inland Abruzzo. The Fucino plain lies immediately below, a large reclaimed basin that shapes the local landscape around Aielli and the neighbouring hill towns. The area falls within the Sirente Velino Regional Park. The nearest town of size is Avezzano, which has the main services, shops and rail connections of the Marsica. Celano is nearby and is known for the Piccolomini Castle above the plain. This part of Abruzzo is known for hill towns looking over the former Lake Fucino basin and for vegetable farming on the reclaimed plain.
