What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
Asking price plus an estimated 200 €/m² renovation gives ~565,600 EUR total (≈1,477 €/m²) vs the regional median of 471 €/m² — more than 3× the typical stock, so the price looks high.
More on the house and the area
Big, bright, well-maintained family villa with a very attractive covered timber terrace and generous living spaces — genuinely liveable as-is. Rooms and layouts are solid but a few cosmetic updates and finishing on the terrace would make this an even more convincing dream 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€25,000 – €43,000
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 dated finishes and furnishings — cosmetic updating likely needed.
- Property sits close to a road (privacy/traffic/noise may be an issue).
- Large covered terrace area looks partly unfinished (concrete floor).
- No clear sea view visible in photos despite being in a seaside town.
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 on the Adriatic coast at Francavilla al Mare, with a long urban beach frontage on the Gulf of Pescara. The Foro river reaches the sea here. The built-up strip continues north into the Pescara conurbation, with the full services of Pescara close by, including a station, hospitals, major retail and Abruzzo Airport. Inland, the Maiella massif rises within this stretch of Abruzzo and dominates the wider backdrop, but it is outside the immediate coastal setting. This part of the coast is known for beach tourism and as the urban seaside belt south of Pescara.
