What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
This is a 200 sqm country house at €35,000 (€175/sqm), but the description clearly says da ristrutturare, so I estimate about €1,100/sqm renovation, bringing effective cost to roughly €1,275/sqm. That is far above the local low-end baseline of €379/sqm, but the very low entry price, 5,000 sqm of land, and explicit residential potential keep it attractive as a major renovation project rather than a bargain on all-in cost.
More on the house and the area
The mountain backdrop and 5,000 sqm of flat land give this farmhouse a striking rural setting, especially for the price. But the house itself looks like a bare renovation project rather than a usable home today, with worn exterior fabric and no interior evidence of livable spaces. Dreamy setting, yes; dream home yet, no.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Our read of the photos, €1,100/m², falls in this band.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€79,000 – €117,000
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.
- Full renovation project; exterior shows neglected, likely non-livable condition
- No interior photos, so kitchen/bath/services are unproven
- Roadside position on the SS Tiburtina may mean traffic/noise
- Openings and fabric look weathered, so structural and roof checks are important
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 55/100Avezzano sits on the Fucino plain beneath the Abruzzo Apennines, with Monte Velino and the Velino-Sirente chain close by. The former Lake Fucino basin shapes the area: it is now a broad reclaimed agricultural plain ringed by mountains. The Sirente-Velino Regional Park begins nearby in the surrounding massif. Ovindoli-Monte Magnola, the nearest significant ski area, is about 25 km away and roughly a 35-40 minute drive. L'Aquila is the nearest larger provincial city, while Avezzano itself is the main service centre for Marsica with rail links, hospitals and shops. The wider Marsica area is known for produce from the Fucino plain, especially potatoes and vegetables.
