A bargain property in a beautiful location inside this town where busses and a train station can be found. Raiano (Abruzzo, Italy) has become a popular spot for investors and this property is a special one, especially considering the price. Nearby towns include Sulmona, Popoli and Pratola.
There is work to be done but the structure is excellent and the features inside are wonderful. You can see a past property with similar features that have been restored on the video at the bottom of this description.
The property has had a new roof and exterior and could be used now and updated later. Fantastic property!

Looks to me the 3rd floor is a new addition. I like the covered terrace. Good idea to knock down the first floor arch wall to make 1 great room and repartiition the second floor. Lots of potential here. Thanks David.
I really like it when you do show a bit of the towns where the feature property is. It gives a feel of the place. And I must say, that your the best with the camera. Other channels showing properties, don't film everything, or as well as you do. You really do have a nack for it. And I also enjoy your comments and ideas of what a person could do with the place! Fantastic 😊
Love that house
Wow Dave. This one is really special! The only downside I see is: I come in with big groceries and I need to unload my car..how close can I get to the house? Also agree with you 100% with your ideas of what to do. Living and kitchen downstairs then corridors to make the rooms a bit more private. Good, good one this one.
Someone at some point: Omg, too expensive, too small, needs too much work, not done to my exact specifications, too far from Rome, no parking, no garage, the buildings are way too old and not enough windows damn it!" It's 40k ffs. You're not going to get a larger house done to your exact specifications in a better area for less money, lol. Or even quadruple the price.
Coming from America, people want spacious living even in smaller spaces. Cutting a room in half, putting up a wall to make a corridor is nonsense to them. Every renovation I've done has been about getting rid of walls and letting light in. Open planning. They want to see their kitchen, they want big bathrooms, big closets.This house would be great for a retired couple with the occasional guest.
I can see putting in a corridor there. And then I'd move the door to the room to the side with the corridor closing off that side but maybe putting in a bath room there as well if possible
I A UTTERLY AGREE, EVEN I AM ITALIAN... I LOVE ENLIGHTED ROOMS, I NO CORRIDORS, CHITCHEN IN OPEN SPACE TO SEE AND ENJOY THE SPACE ITSELF...
@@lucianogardino9339. Surely you don’t want Italy to become totally Americanised 😮. They already think that the greatest in the world.
Great house with wonderful potential. And by American standards, they're giving it away. I'd think another 100,000 would put it in very good order.
Lounge downstairs under that wonderful vaulted ceiling for sure. That ceiling would be wasted on a kitchen. Kitchen in that ugly room next door. I'd beam the ceiling in there for rustic detail.
The room has to be redone anyway.
Master up on the second floor under that wood ceiling. with a large deluxe on suite bath in the smaller room. I can see it all now. I shouldn't even look at this stuff. It's torture. Only down side for me is there's no celler room i could use for a work shop.
😂 I know!!!!!
Same 😕
I'm totally on board with your suggestions for reconfiguration. It is great that the property is at the end of the street, so you have the best of both worlds - historical centre, and quiet street to live in. The rooms are exceptionally spacious. I love this one too!
Love the challenge. Yes, move the kitchen (and create a utility area) to the left room and see where you can fit a WC room. Make the suggested corridor and create a bedroom with an en-suite bath-/shower room towards the bathroom. Then from the corridor, open up to the rear bedroom with the bathroom en-suite. Make a bedroom with an en-suite shower room and a dressing/storage room on the second floor or a TV room/study with guest sofa beds...
Wow! What a find. Quaint community with easy access to public transportation. Can't beat this price. 🙋♀💜
Yea, I love this one too. Lots of room wow!
It's a Wonderful Property with Huge Potential. This won't last long...❤
Here is my thoughts. Kitchen and dining stay in the same room. But get upgraded. The side room becomes a studio. The pantry just off the kitchen becomes a power room. The first floor landing. Becomes the lounge. with the guest bedroom behind with bath. second floor is the master suite. Bedroom in the main. closet bathroom and space for a small office in the back. Terrace set up to enjoy. I Love it.
Thanks for another good video. I really like the first walking part too because it shows you in what kind of neighberhood the house is. Without it one just has to guess about the surroundings.
really nice house, alot of possibilities. Upstairs i'll put a little bar and a snooker table next to the bar...lol..
Really lots of potential, and yes great price! Star-vaulted ceiling room ground floor: leave as kitchen-dining (that's MY living room) make it super beautiful, comfortable, restore rather than renovate (NO Ikea garbage), polish up original floor, find old sideboard, etc. Other ground floor room: workshop, project room; first floor: den/library/TV, cozy bedroom w/ ensuite; second floor: art studio (enlarge/add skylight(s)). This is a plan for one person artist occupancy...close family or friend guest could sleep in den---2-3 night max!---all others get a B+B! Thanks, Dave.
I like your remodel suggestions. I would definitely keep the room with a fireplace as the lounge and turn the adjacent room into a kitchen/dining area. This flat has some inherent compromises, but the balcony/porch area makes it stand out.
I love seeing all the plazas all the time! I wish you'd go into a bar and talk to locals! Or film during an event. Seeing comments about remodeling. We bought a fixer in retirement. Not a thing all should do. A strange artist built house. We thought we may be doing more gutting but in the end we only gutted the not to code bathroom. Rest was a bit of adding. As we lived with it we learned more tricks, furniture placement. Paint is a miracle!
Mind?? Nope - I love the strolls thru the historical parts! And yes, indeed - reveal the vaults - move the kitchen as you stated. And - not nuts at all - I'd already "built" the corridor on the second level - and pulled the small room and bathroom into a totally amazing suite! And repeat upstairs for the main with that wunnemrus terrace for morning coffee. Would there be a spot for a single elevator? I would worry about aging in place.... I love this spot. Have I said that for too many of your videos?? Mary (aka StampsnLingers)
Yep, Dave, you're nuts, 😂 c you are my kinda nuts. I love when you share your ideas, most of which I agree. Keep sharing. I watched some videos by 4 or 5 others and they just fell flat for me. And the part that broke my heart most
was how little regard they had for all the things that brought character to the place. They wanted to modernize everything and destroy the soul of the place. I had to rush back over here to your soothing voice and special style that no one can replicate. So what if some are upset by you sharing your thoughts on what would make the place even better, it's what makes your channel different and more interesting IMHO. ❤❤
Word "STONNING" is my personal reminder to put a thumbs up
I like the price, I like the size but the layout is horrible and does not leave much room for reconfiguration.
You do not have to make a video longer, many of us love shorter, quick watch videos we do not have to make time for. Love your idea of the downstairs as living/guest space and upstairs as 2 en suite bedrooms with baths. I, personally, do not like to enter into a kitchen as a main entrance. I like an entry to hang your coat, kick off your shoes/boots.
I would make that top floor a master suite with that side room a large bath and walk in closet/dressing area and I would put a clawfoot tub on that outside area with the doors from the bath. The sightline from that terrace is all roofs. There didn’t appear to be any windows that would be able to see into that terrace so it wouldn’t be scandalous to have a tub there. You could always put up some gauze curtains there if you were concerned about the privacy. It would be really cool!!
I'd leave kitchen where it is. The room adjacent to the kitchen, I'd convert into a bedroom with an en suite. It is the only room with sufficient space for a full bathroom sans separate bidet but big shower, and room for a king-sized bed and wardrobe. I'd add insulated glass doors to the room so I could open the wooden doors. I'm not sure yet about the second and third floors.
What a fabulous place you found. Love your opinion, great idea for the room placement..I want a place with that ceiling for sure... Love love love.
12 trains per day go to Sulmona in 12 minutes for EUR2,10. Hard to beat that.
Wow! I am packing my bags. This is an incredible property for the price. I absolutely love it. I am surprised it is still available. Is there an expat presence in this adorable town? Thank you for this one.
I'd love a followup on this if the new owners are doing renovations. I share your thoughts for main floor but also add a half bath. Also, enclose part of third floor terrace to house the new bathroom
These homes are fabulous but are these towns too remote and quiet for a retired person?
Why no answer?
Because it’s all a personal preference. If you want city life and buzz, then no, a small town is not for you.
The stunning, arched ceilings are to be enjoyed as one main area, Where ever you like to pass time, the terrace is inviting a dining/sitting room for fresh air/guests, entertainment area, I would install an extra 1/2 bath/toilet on ground floor... I wouldn't put a wall in for the "corridor" but maybe an ornate high banister. I adore the open, airy feeling of it, and the style... a third bathroom on top like you said, if affordable...
I love it. I got US $$ but the town looks dead. I have no idea what I would need to do to get it fixed up. No parking near so how to even bring building materials?
I would probably start with a country that speaks English if you want to do a renovation abroad.
@@thehungrygoldfish what does that even mean!!!!? I speak 4 languages.
What is the situation when you have a car? Is there specific residential parking areas???? Not sure how that works in italy.... lovely town and house😊
That ground floor kitchen is GORGEOUS!
What would the taxes be on this property? Sometimes these homes seem cheap but total purchase cost may be high?
Amazing 😮 an absolute bargain ✅ It really could be something so special, as you say. Such a charming and most affordable piece of Italy! I’m equally excited for whoever is fortunate enough to acquire the property! Alice 🇦🇺
I would use the top floor as a lounge and have a sleeper couch for guests. The room next door I would turn into a big bathroom with storage cupboards. Downstairs I would open the arch up and make it a kitchen dining lounge area. Middle floor will become 2 bedrooms and bathroom, will need some configuration!
I loved Raiano, it’s a beautiful town , very walkable and a train station. This townhouse is a beauty. Thanks David.
What direction does the terrace face? East? West?
Your Idea on the first floor for moving the kitchen is a good idea making the vaulted room the living area. the second floor I’d make two bedrooms so you walk through one my Grammy’s house is that way. Third floor bedroom and office. That’s my story and I’m sticking to it.
Unbeatable for the price.
You could put quite a bit into it and modernize it and I'd think you could get your money out of it.
I'd make a powderroom in that little room off the kitchen under the stairs.
The karge room off the kitchen should be the lounge.
Expand the bath on the first floor and add a builtin wardrobe.
Same with the 2nd floor.
Maybe 5 to 10,000 euros.
Ciao Dave.
Have a good weekend.
The kitchen should be on the left when entering, ceilings in what is now the kitchen should have the beautiful brick work exposed and this room should become a formal dining room with a crystal chandelier to die for. Up the first flight of stairs should be a lounge and through the doors a bathroom and bedroom, and up the next flight should be a master bedroom with another bath and a walk-in closet. That's what I would do.
Love it and lots of potential. Is flooding an issue in the area? Looks like water is coming in?
3 bathrooms and bedrooms stacked on the left side, 3 living spaces on the right. You have to pass through all rooms on the right regardless, and adding corridors removes usable space.
I would reorientate the current bathroom though, to use as the main family one, and give the bedroom room privacy.
If you have that corridor on the first floor, you might as well shift the door to the second room, so that it is accessed via the corridor. With good ventilation it is possible to move the bathroom away from the windows to that new corridor. That way you‘d get two independent bedrooms and a small bathroom on that floor.
With the new corridor and the door to the far bedroom at the end of it, you would use the existing doorway that is linking the two rooms to make another ensuite bathroom since the plumbing is along that outside wall.
The already dark bedroom would get even darker... but that's the most straightforward plan I think.
I'd also make a half-bath under the stairs where all the pots and pans were.
i love this place!! I wonder how much it would cost to fix it?
Dave, this is still available? Thank you, Chris
nice house, good price, please, dont talk so much
¿ Sono il solo bambino che guarda questa ?
and the attic? who lives on the roof? there's a window there!
Great potential for the right person/couple…just not for me.
A friend sends emails to you, wants to go on a tour...that recently doubled in price!
You never respond. Is this a scam?
They probably sent them to the wrong person.
Fantastic property, I would open the ground floor with arch as you say and bedroom first floor, with large bathroom dressing room sofa bed.
art studio/office top floor with all that gorgeous outside space 😊 when you say “don’t you think” or ask questions I always answer 😂 that’s how good your videos are, I actually feel like I’m there, lol happy 2024, I look forward to more fb videos - I’m like this town, it’s hard to choose for sure ♥️
Thank you do u have more apartments ..
Personally, I would do the hallway in the first bedroom. Upstairs bedroom in the outside right corner put in a full Bath.
At and that up second bedroom. I wouldn't be concerned about built-in closets. And most Italian homes they use wardrobes and Night stands. Plenty of room for clothes. I definitely would switch the kithrough that narrow door and degree. If an archway could be built, that would be absolutely fantastic, especially if it was outlined. In brick.
In older buildings arches are not decorative. They are support like Roman aquaducts. That includes ceilings but could be some ways around it. Build new arches if doors and windows moved. I like idea of very top floor being a master with bathroom. Big closet, maybe corner office area. Id totally live on that balcony so Id need my coffee bar too! 2nd floor with bedrooms could be shifted to be two kids bedrooms or any use. Just separate that bathroom as independent. I like your corridor idea too! In old days they used a lot of transom windows above doors or through windows to create more light in the interior. Ground floor could have through windows with or without glass, maybe glass doors? if not able to widen door.
I love your suggestions for this one, even to having the courtyard table for impromptu gatherings with neighbours. Great little house, at a great price.
I love this place. Keep bigger kitchen where it is. Lounge in other room and I would not change a thing upstairs except do bathroom
A planta é estranha, mas nada que desmereça a qualidade da construção que é enorme, e o preço é inacreditável. Onde você apontou que se pode construir um corredor criando outro quarto, não sendo passagem para aquela suíte, eu vejo que pode ser feita a nova porta ao lado da escada, que ficaria no fundo do corredor, ficaria bem mais aproveitável, um 3° dormitório, mas acredito que uma parede com essa espessura dificulte essa configuracão. Aliás, como se faz para cortar uma parede tão larga na espessura?
I wondered about splitting it down the middle into two separate units, it’s almost too confusing having a pair of adjoining rooms in each floor. So two sets of spiral stairs on the left to connect the three floors. There’s two entrances and both kitchens downstairs where they kind of already are - it works assuming you can make holes through the floors🤔
Yes I’d have the second floor as a bedroom and wardrobe/dressing room. Great idea! It’s a big place.
There are two things I don’t like about this place are lack of parking garage and the views.
Estranho as casas começarem com a cozinha. E abrir essas paredes deve ser impossível porque são larguissimas. Portas de vidro? São casas antigas, deve gaver regras de restauro
I would remove the walls in the bathroom and make it all glass frosted glass so you get light pulled into that one room. I do like the idea of leaving of the kitchen in that one room and then making what is now the kitchen into a living room.
Like your idea of lounge and kitchen downstairs with open arch between them.
i am interested on this one
Living room "
Are these property freehold,or does that not happen in Italy?
All freehold. Leasehold doesn't exist in italy!
Love for you to start your video in a bar having a drink.’!!!
At that price, absolutely AMAZING!
Thanks for the video. It feels quite dark. Any suggestions if offering additional light in the space? Ambient? Thanks!
The cheapest, easiest and fastest would be lamps. Anything else would be extra time and cost.
Do you know anything in Piemonte ? THX !!!!
Que les pasa a esas casas que tienen tantas sujeciones en sus muros ?.
Thanks for the tour, beautiful Home.
I am sure this is sold by now😢
Yes sorry it is sold
I love this property! Near perfect ❤
Awesome house❤
I can totally see the potential. Love that the town is flat and has a train station. Love the star vaulted ceilings and the wood ceiling upstairs! However....Im hooked on the homes that have an open terrace with far reaching country views!
❤❤❤
Jodi WA State
Love it!…❤
Amazing.
It's a mistake to say that you aren't going to show the town in this video while assuming that viewers have seen and remember some specific videos that you had previously posted in the same locale.
There are two simple solutions to remedy this: one is to say for the viewer to see a couple of links you could post in the description containing previous narrated walks about the village; another would be to show chapters in the video and insert a walk chapter while telling regular viewers that the walk chapter can be skipped if they are sufficiently familiar with that location.
I did show more of the town than expected BUT I will look into your chapter idea, thankyou for your input. I don't claim to be a youtube expert and ideas like this are a big help 😊
@@AhomeinItaly Yes, after I posted my suggestions, I continued watching and saw that you did some walking around anyway.
I appreciate your nice response to my comment. And like countless others, I appreciate your informative and enjoyable videos.
Love the idea of turning the cantina into a kitchen and the current kitchen into a living room. This one will be snatched up quickly!
Yes, and get rid of the long black pipe that crosses the wall.
@kathleentrinity7367 that's done on purpose to take advantage of secondary radiant heat rather than it going up the chimney. Yes a bit ugly but practical.....
😍🥰
Omg How Stunning I agree with your idea 💡 Beautiful 😍
Get real! You can't knock down anything there. Its not your private home as this is just an apartment! Every friggin knockdown needs a lot of paperwork, additional expenses and years of waiting in Italy! And may be ended up with the absolute nonsense.
Roof beams sit of 18 inch thick stone wall that sits on another 18 inch thick stone wall which is all being held up by the wall I want to cut open...? Probably needs steel beam and Italy gets earthquakes...Anything is possible if you're willing to pay for it.
You don't want to make a huge wide opening at lowest level. Fill in the existing narrow offset opening with stone salvaged from a wider opening with stone arch centered on the ceiling vault arch. Beauty in symmetry and no need for lintel when you rebuild with a stone arch.
Might be a crazy idea, but can you not carve out half of the wall's thickness under the star vault to put in another stone archway or a steel i-beam, then after weeks of curing you do the same from the other side?
Surely half of that monstrously thick wall and the vaulted ceiling above are enough to hold it.
People renovate and run away! Why?
@@g.e.o.r.g.e... that large an opening won't be allowed. This house was built with random stones long before any design codes were implemented and making such a large change would have to be designed per current codes which include seismic loading. If you found an engineer who would be willing to tackle it, you would likely find that the reinforced concrete frame that would be needed would not be financially feasible and/or take up much more space of rooms on either side. Since this is at lowest level where seismic loads accumulate down the height of building, better to leave as is since it has stood the test of time or look to make only small marginal changes such as widening existing door slightly.
@@angelomasciantonio You're more than likely correct. The doorway downstairs isn't the top priority, I'd probably just do the corridor idea and add 2.5 more bathrooms.
These old houses may have charm and some interesting details but let's be honest, the layout of the rooms is just stupid and awkward.
Let's be honest how many houses did you build ...? What do you expect for 40 K ? There are stunning old houses all over Italy all you need is to add extra 0.
😂😂
Could do without the chapel of rest background music.
What a beautiful home! Can a small car come all the way to the house?
Yes with a little practice, unless they've closed off with signage but didn't see any.
Or use a scooter.
❤
Your continual subjective superlative dialogue turns me off. Is the video meant to display the property or your opinions?
I like your ideas. Might you have the room dimensions? Size of property overall? I have sent you a few messages, 1 regarding the upcoming tour in April as well as 1 dealing specifically regarding this property. Gracias, Chris
Beautiful home, such potential. I bet for another $50k, it would be perfect
Love this. Would contentedly live out my days here…..
