Condition not stated in the listingSee what needs doing and what each job costs
Townhouse listed at €149,000 (€993/m²); assuming modest works (€200/m² → €30,000) yields an effective €1,193/m², far above the regional baseline of €417/m². The listing has many photos and central L'Aquila location, but the price is high for the local market.
More on the house and the area
Clean, move-in-ready terraced house with a private rear garden, garage and bright, well‑kept interiors. The block is modern and practical rather than romantic, so this is a sensible, good-value family home rather than a dream-of-Italy picture postcard.
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.
- Plain, 1970s-style exterior and shared external corridor — not a scenic or historic setting
- Urban lot with no sea/mountain view visible in photos
- Verify condo rules/expenses and energy/heating details before buying
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 55/100The cluster is in the built-up area of L’Aquila, so daily surroundings are the city basin rather than open countryside. The Gran Sasso massif rises immediately to the north-east, and the Sirente-Velino range is close to the south-east. The Aterno valley runs through the area. Gran Sasso e Monti della Laga National Park begins close to the city, and the Sirente-Velino Regional Park is nearby. The nearest ski lifts are at Campo Imperatore on Gran Sasso, roughly a 30 to 40 minute drive depending on the access road and season. L’Aquila is the nearest town of size and has the regional institutions, a university, major churches and palazzi, and a substantial historic centre under long reconstruction after the 2009 earthquake. The area is known for its position between major Apennine massifs and for access to the Gran Sasso high plateau.
