What it really costs

Condition not stated in the listingSee what needs doing and what each job costs
Listing price €178,000 for 247 m2 plus an assumed €200/m2 of work (€49,400) gives an effective cost of ≈€227,400 or ≈€920/m2, well above the Abruzzo median of €433/m2. Generous photos and land/olive-grove are positives, but at more than double the regional baseline this is overpriced for a renovation/buyer seeking a bargain.
More on the house and the area
Move-in-ready, characterful country house with terracotta floors, brick arches and a large fireplace, plus a private courtyard and BBQ area. Set among olive groves with wide panoramic hill views (sea visible in the distance) — a very liveable, photogenic family home.
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€16,000 – €28,000
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.
- Price is above €100k (not in the ultra-cheap bracket)
- Check exact heating/energy details (not listed)
- Rural access — confirm road/parking and distances to services
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 56/100This is low hill country between the Foro and Moro valleys, with vineyards and olive groves typical of the inland Chieti area. The Adriatic coast around Francavilla al Mare and Ortona is within about 15 km in a straight line, but Ari itself sits inland on ridges rather than on the shore. The nearest substantial town is Chieti, which has a historic centre, services and university functions; Pescara is the main city of the area for rail, airport and retail, but it lies beyond the immediate landscape. The Majella massif is a dominant presence on clear days to the west, though the mountain parks and ski lifts are outside the 15 km radius. This part of Abruzzo is known for wine and olive oil production.
