At €80,000 (1,000€/m²) the description says 'da completare' despite the listed condition 'Renovated'; I applied a 200€/m² finishing estimate giving an effective ~1,200€/m² versus the regional median ~390€/m². The property has been listed 300 days (stale), so this looks overpriced despite the low headline price.
More on the house and the area
A simple modern townhouse in a residential row with pleasant valley/mountain views and small front/rear gardens. Structurally complete but the interiors are a raw, uncompleted shell — a real project rather than a move‑in home, though the price makes it an affordable renovation opportunity.
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€5,000 – €9,000
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.
- Interior is an unfinished shell with bare blockwork and no flooring or finishes.
- Windows/doors are missing or boarded and balcony edges lack railings — not weatherproof or safe as shown.
- Full electrical, plumbing, heating and sanitary fit‑out required before it can be lived in.
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 70/100The Mainarde, the southwestern sector of the Apennines on the Molise-Lazio-Abruzzo border, rise within this area. The Volturno river valley is the immediate landscape here, with low wooded slopes and cultivated valley floor around the villages between Colli a Volturno, Rocchetta a Volturno and Cerro al Volturno. The Parco Nazionale d'Abruzzo, Lazio e Molise begins nearby around Pizzone and the Mainarde, partly within about 15 km of the cluster. Rocchetta a Volturno has the abbey of San Vincenzo al Volturno, one of the main medieval monastic sites in inland southern Italy. The nearest town of size is Isernia, which has the normal range of services and a preserved historic centre. This area is known for mountain pastures, woodland and the upper Volturno valley villages.
