How long to drive from Rome?
Great question! Thanks! It’s about a 3 hour drive from Rome. It’s a drive I’ll never get tired of. The views are incredible!
How far is it from your home.
Thank for watching! It was about a 90 minute wonderful drive! So great to see so much on the journey!😀
I love Sulmona! Those arches are part of a Roman aqueduct. Unbelievable that they are still there, but that's Italy for you.
Thank you for watching and the feedback. Sulmona is a wonderful place. The Roman aqueducts are a marvel!
Had the best time!!
The BEST! 😃
What a great and mysterious way to explore Abruzo 🤩
Thank you! We can’t wait to find some more spots and share!

We are looking at a home here and are so excited. Does the agent take care of Geometra, Notary and all things with the paperwork including our offer? Thank you
Good morning! Thank you for watching! Everyone’s experience is a little different. Because we bought it from the US, our agent worked with a notaio she uses for paperwork and closing. We had to give her the power the buy on our behalf. If you need work and require a geometra, your agent may be able to make a recommendation. We are looking forward to hearing about your purchase! This video may help: th-cam.com/video/2CrVZkqt920/w-d-xo.htmlsi=mJaRC8MtBwjMOPIq
I now see how us Canadians are deprived by the cost here Oil olive 4 euros! We are being exhorted 17 bucks up to 56 dollars. Also much much more choices and varieties. !! Of pasta. We have a very limited amount of pasta! I guess Italy doesn’t want to export any pasta to Canada 🇨🇦. How sad how we are so controlled in Canada even for Alcohol is a government monopoly 😮
So sorry to hear that. Hopefully things will improve.
Love you videos and trips ❤ have you guys been at Costa Trabocchi in Abruzzo? Hope you can pay a visit one day!
Thank you! Yes we have actually been to Costa Trabocchi with family. Beautiful! We had an incredible meal 😀
So, I’m new to your channel. This is the 2nd video of yours that I’ve watched. Can I ask, did you buy one home to live in and one home to renovate to move into later? Because the last video I watched, you’d just had the steps and back foundation fixed and you had no windows. But this house has windows.
Thank you for watching. We only bought one house. We know it looks different even with minor repairs. The front of the house is at street level with no exposed stone. It is a beautiful place that always amazes us.
Thanks for such a great info. I am planning on buying a house in Umbria!
Glad it was helpful! Thank you for watching!
Been missing your videos. What happend?
Thank you. We are happy to find a little time to post. Unfortunately, work has kept us busy. Only a few more years to retirement 😃
@@cerchiamo we enjoy your house videos so... much!
🏆
Grazie mille!
you guys are doing a good job, no doubt
Thank you so much. We can’t wait to see the final results and share!
nicely done! I enjoyed your humor. I have an IKEA adventure in my near future so thanks for the inspiration.
Thank you for the feedback! I think IKEA adventures of the same in any country 😀
Nice job 😊
Thank you so much! We really appreciate your feedback!
For the basement, if haven't already, I would rough in an area for plumbing for an bathroom. Looks great!
Thank you so much for the feedback. Yeah we have plans to put a bathroom down there and have a living space for guests. We are probably gonna have to do septic because it’s below street level that will be a little bit further down the road as they say an Italian piano piano.
@@cerchiamo Gotcha...can't wait to do our recon trip. Maybe late October. Ciao!
@purpletoo12 🤞
Excited for you guys!
Thank you!
He did a really nice job clearing the yard!
Thank you! We’ve been really really happy with him helping us out keeping the yard clear. When we can’t be there, he even cuts the grass. Then we settle up with him next time we see him. It’s a really great community.
Beutiful! Thanks!
Thank you!. I was back there not too long ago. I was able to walk back there. I’ll have to post another video. It’s a beautiful hidden spot that you could just drive by without even knowing it’s there.
Helpful.. thank you.
Glad it was helpful! Thank you we’re happy to help. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to ask.
Just...WOW!
Thank you! Abruzzo has many spectacular places to visit
What do you do with the debris? Can you burn it or can it be picked up? Thanks! Planning to relocate to Abruzzo soon too!
Thank you for the feedback. We’re not sure what kind of debris you can burn. I see farmers burning on their land the old crops. In this case when the construction is finished, we’re gonna have it professionally removed.
A WEALTH OF INFORMATION! Grazie Mile!
Our pleasure! Thank you for the feedback. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to ask!
We live in Saint Pete! We are in the process of retiring and moving to the Abruzzo region as well! I thoroughly, thoroughly enjoy your videos! Not only are you American, but you’re even in the same state in the US! is there any chance that I can speak with you about housing costs? I’ve been told that lately as soon as sellers hear that there’s an American interested in a house they jack up the price. I’ve also heard that there are no appraisals there so the prices are all over the place. How close are you to retiring? I’m 62 and my boyfriend is 63…. We hope to be there within the next two years. When that happens, I would love to connect with you guys!
That sounds fantastic. You’re gonna love it there. Our experience was pretty straightforward. We actually negotiated the price lower when we bought our house. It’s a little different as far as the houses are listed over there. They’re not just listed with one real estate agent. So if you make an offer, you don’t know if somebody else is making an offer at the same time.there are so many great values out there. We really recommend going to visit this website.: www.abruzzoruralproperty.com Monia is wonderful and helped with everything and speaks English!
This is your neighbor on 2 continents; I had to laugh; we had the same pink tiles in our bathroom as well with the same set up, those tiles are from early 70's from the boxes I found. Be sure to get cabinets incorporated into the design and I would suggest a free- standing tub, it will make the room look bigger. If this is not your master bath, leave the tub out and go for a bigger shower with some water features. Don't forget the water heaters are not like what we have in FL and to fill the tub it will be working overtime; you may consider not placing one? Enjoy the project!
Thank you for the feedback! Great to hear from you. We are considering a free standing tub 🛀. We really want to enjoy the view 🏔️
Love the design! super modern...even though you have more room without the bidet, consider what it would look like with it in there. It was a hard choice for us, but we added it. Perhaps with the washing machine out, it might work. Can't wait to see what you do with the room!
Thank you. It is still just a rough draft. There will definitely be some changes that we can’t wait to see!
Great job! The room looks comfortable. Any consideration of using the metal bed frame that came with the old bed (if it did) and just buying the mattress? That's what we did in all of our bedrooms. Hope to have you guys over one of these days fr a glass of wine (or beer). : )
Thank you for the feedback! We did end up using the old bedframe in the master bedroom. The one in the guest bedroom wasn’t in the best condition. Also, we wanted a longer bed. The regular beds in Italy are a little bit shorter so we got the new bed frame. A glass of wine or a beer sounds great! We look forward to it!
Great that you’re doing this. Renovated the kids bathroom a couple years ago. (Almost exactly the same square meters as yours). Gutted everything and made it more modern. Tip…Wall mounted toilet (space saver! ) Keep up the great work guys. Shout if you need anything
Thank you! We really appreciate it! I saw the have the tank mounted up in the wall. May go that route.
Watched you since Covid times...feel you have way too few subscribers ...considering how many houses are being renovated...needs to be renovated...was wondering if Cherchiamo is not telling enough...maybe casa.... Abruzzo...more informativ title would help ...I'm sure you can think of something...you deserve more followers...👍
Thank you for the feedback and sticking with us! This is going to be a long journey!
Looking forward to seeing it come together!
Thank you for the feedback! We are excited to keep moving forward. Little by little… Piano Piano
@@cerchiamo Have you looked into Resin finishes for the shower stall? I don't know anything about them, but I've seen them installed in Italy and was curious. Also, this is just a personal preference, but I'd install a glass shower wall install of something solid.
We haven’t gotten to type of choices yet. We are eating for a few more drafts . We’ll keep you updated. Thanks!
the waterheater and washingmachine i would put in the basement, but dont loose the bidet ,in case you one day wanna sell the house italians want a bidet in their bathrooms :)
Thank you for the feedback. It is a first draft so we still have to get all necessities sorted out.
Senza bidet non è una casa che si venderà facilmente. Senza bidet è un bagno ridicolo.
Grazie per il feedback. È una prima bozza, quindi dobbiamo risolvere tutte le necessità.
The new design looks super cool. Good luck with the project!
Thank you so much! It is a first draft so we have to get all necessities sorted out.

Thank you to our friend Floor Eshuis for providing a special musical score for this video “Itlaiaia”!
14:37 I do this too 😁
We totally understand!😋
The video was very good
Thank you so much! We are very grateful for the feedback!😀
Can you please slow the camera a little bit love your videos
Understood. Thank you for watching. Thank you for the feedback!
the way you edit your videos, is really cool
Thank you so much! We really appreciate that! It’s funny because so many times the wife just filming without me knowing that she wants me to make a video. If find myself filling in gaps throughout the day which makes editing a little challenging for us. That being said, Italy is wonderful and so of our best days are the ones that just happen. Thank you for the feedback 🙏
Loved seeing the guest room taking shape. I would be happy to stay in there.
Thank so much!!! It was just a temporary set. We actually bigger plans down the road for that room and the whole floor plan in general 😀
It's great to see you enjoying your house and preparing for guests!
Thank you so much. We weee finally excited to host. Even though it was a temporary set up, we do have better plans for that room. Thank you for watching!😃
What a nice bright guest room.
Thank you so much! We would have liked to do much more but we were limited on time and actually have bigger plans for that room on the future 😀
Why not give the room a lick of paint while it is empty?
Thank you for watching. That is a great idea. We actually did think about painting but due to time constraints and bigger plans for that room we decided to put that off. 😀
Bravo!
Grazie mille!!!!
Love the cactus! I must say those tiles look fabulous!! Such a great idea to use the pool grade non-slip. Your home is looking beautiful.
Thank you so much! We have been blessed. Our expectations have always been exceeded! Our architect recommended the tiles and uses them as well. Our local builder went above and beyond by tiling our front porch as well!
