This is a judicial auction (Tribunale RGE 63/2022), which adds legal complexity and purchase risk despite the low price €35,715 (208 €/m2 vs regional median 417 €/m2). The ad also states the images are not the real photos, so definitive pictures and planimetry are missing—only buy with auction-specialist assistance.
More on the house and the area
The flat looks freshly renovated with modern floors, lighting and a clean layout so it could be lived in with little work. It’s a very large, inexpensive town property but located in a plain urban block and sold at auction — verify the real photos, bathrooms and legal/title status before bidding.
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€11,000 – €19,000
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.
- Some listing images appear generic/indicative and may not be photos of the actual unit — confirm real photos and planimetries.
- Urban courtyard/street-facing location with no scenic views and potential street noise.
- Property is an auction lot — expect legal checks, possible delays or occupancy/possession issues.
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 area sits at the western edge of the Marsica, between the Monti Simbruini and the higher Abruzzo Apennines, with enclosed valleys and wooded slopes around the town. The Liri has its source territory nearby at Cappadocia and flows through this part of the upper Liri valley. The Monti Simbruini Regional Park begins a short distance to the west on the Lazio side, and the Sirente Velino Regional Park lies to the east beyond Avezzano. The nearest ski lifts are at Campo Staffi above Filettino, roughly an hour by road in winter conditions. Avezzano is the nearest larger town, with hospitals, rail links and the main services of the Marsica plain. This part of Abruzzo is known for the former Fucino basin and for mountain pastoral country on the edge of the central Apennines.
