See what needs doing and what each job costs
This is a judicial auction (Tribunale di Cassino RGE 15/2024) — auction purchases carry legal and execution risks and the ad warns that images are not the real photos. Price EUR 37,440 for 154 m2 (EUR 243/m2); with estimated renovation ~EUR 200/m2 the effective price is ~EUR 443/m2 vs regional baseline EUR 583/m2, but auction status makes this unsuitable for a standard purchase.
More on the house and the area
Some bright, recently‑refurbished interiors and a tidy bathroom suggest parts of the home are habitable, but other rooms look run‑down and the exterior context is utilitarian rather than picturesque. It's a clear bargain if you accept mixed condition and likely renovation/permission work — verify which photos match the actual unit.
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.
- Gallery appears to mix modern, fully‑refreshed rooms with at least one very dilapidated bedroom — condition is inconsistent.
- Exterior photo shows high‑rise/urban blocks, not a scenic historic hilltown view.
- Listing notes images may be indicative and not the actual photos of the unit — verify real photos and floorplans before bidding.
- Property is in a protected "Centro Storico" area (vincoli DM85) — renovation works may be restricted and need approvals.
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 eastern Ciociaria hills at the edge of the central Apennines. The Monti Ernici rise immediately around Pescosolido, with the higher group of Monte del Passeggio and Monte Cornacchia close by. The upper Liri valley is the main valley landscape in this part of the province. The Parco Nazionale d'Abruzzo, Lazio e Molise begins a short distance to the east, and the Forca d'Acero pass is one of the usual access points from this side. The nearest town of size is Sora, which has a substantial built-up centre, services and rail connections, and Isola del Liri is nearby with its well-known waterfall in the town centre. This area is known for mountain villages, chestnut and olive country on the lower slopes, and access from Lazio into the Abruzzo national-park mountains.
