I have a suggestion: gut the inside (remove floor completely), connect cantina to main house. Place kitchen dining in cantina, 1st room place living & toilet/bathroom, have built loft style flooring with stairs over 2 levels (open mezzanine) for sleeping & bathroom😊.
Another home that was probably divided between two descendants, the give away are all of the blocked doors. A total strip out, new roof, new doors and windows and wiring for the whole home. If there is a way to install a spiral stair to the cantina below where as mentioned a nice bathroom could be installed. Sandblast all of the cantina to bring into the open the vaults and brickwork and a nice terracotta floor would be in order down there. Finish off with replacing the whole front entryway with a fitted exposed natural stone walls and a travertine steps and landing.
Ciao Fiorella and Aden, I think what I would do, is first find out if an inside staircase could go into the cantina to the first floor. Then I would have the Kitchen and dining in the cantina, the first floor, a nice bathroom and a tv room, the top floor with maybe a small bathroom and the bedroom. There is potential there, I love the area, the houses form a courtyard. I think if someone puts a little imagination and the TLC into this house they could make a nice home. Thanks for reshowing it at the reduced price. Amore da N.Y.
I just recently discovered your videos they are very enjoyable. I've only been to Italy once but I absolutely adored it. I felt so comfortable there, I had always kind of hoped I might live there someday.
I have become very attached to this house, what it needs is a good hug❤i would have a partial glass floor looking down into the cantina and maybe open the floor to let light in and incude a bathroom.
First of all, You look really good with your hair cut...What a change;, you look like a different young women. Congratulations Fiorella on this new look. Hello from Belgium.
It seems that it needs a new roof. Plastering inside an out. Redoing the floors. Installing a bathroom, new door, and electrics and drainage. And a new staircase. I think it would require more than 30K. And with prices rising of materials and the time for permits, I think it would be too much for such a little space.
This property needs a bathroom with a shower or bathtub. It's going to need new flowing probably all the way around. The walls will need to be sandblasted including the ceilings to bring back that brick, which looks great. It's going to need a kitchen. It's going to need at least €20,000 to get the place livable.
In my opinion it’s going to take at least $60k to renovate this property, roof plumbing electrical structural kitchen bathroom doors windows tiles ac heating ext…
Another enticing selection and showing. I have a question. In a little public courtyard like the one this apartment faces, is it considered acceptable for people to put out seating and a table, and planters, to make an inviting, homey space in front of their residence? This video shows someone that has done that. And I wonder how such a thing would be received by someone newly moved in (like, is it so common that no one would notice?). Or is it a much more appropriate approach to familiarize oneself with the neighbors, and after friendships grow, ask how they feel about it?
Most likely both things would happen at the same time. Neighbours would feel happy you're taking initiative. At least that has been our personal experience
The tiles on the first floor are gorgeous, but the house would not be big enough for our needs. Still, for such a low price, this would make a great project for a holiday hideaway.
In the 1980s & 90s, properties even in Tuscany, still had a range of facilities/plumbing--some detached from house, some attached to building, but required going outside to get inside; and, yes, a facility often was a pit toilet--a hole in the dirt was not rare, especially in work or industrial setting. Common laundry--wash tubs in a common area were still shared, as was spring water. Animals were slaughtered & food prepared in very pragmatic designated areas. Coming from Puritan USA to Europe, I had to get used to people just asking for 'the toilet'. Say what? But, also conversely true?? In Italy, availability of 'scrap' marble or granite often meant my perception of lavish: Interior bathrooms: the combos of toilet/bidets/marble everything & towel warmers---was fully Hollywood deluxe, but in a very everyday family home. Impacts of WWII & fluctuating economies everywhere. The floor & wall tiles, color & patterns, have always been my weakness. I hope some Italians are also returning to rehab these spaces. As a stranieri, I love them, but it's so important to hear Italian voices & learn the Italian ways to be, to keep those places true to the culture.
This house has a lot of potential to turn into a lovely home. The neighborhood is very quite, nice & well kept. The view of the courtyard is a big bonus. Also, a bonus is nice neighbors!! I am wondering what the planning board allows for renovation. Are you allowed to add more windows to the home? Or are you required to just keep the existing amount of windows in the home? Basically what are you allowed to change on these old historic homes?
This should be one of those $1 homes. It’s super old and needs everything

Put in 2 more windows to front house.

What a great location to invest 30K and have a cozy base for a vacation getaway home.

Can the cantina and the rest of the house be joined by a doorway?

Do you only show houses in Molise? Do you have other contacts in other areas?
so beautiful house and location

I love your curls!
Io voglio una come faccio
Can that porch area be enclosed to add to the living space?
Would need to ask the ufficio tecnico of the comune, a geometra or architetto
I like your hair🙏
Be good to put a spiral staircase in down to the basement
Do you know how much wouldbe payment per year for tax, communications, rubbish?
What’s the arched shape in the basement?
Is there another house behind that can be bought to be extended into?
Yes but currently is not for sale
Not such a large project that would be reasonable to restore. 😊
Not sure about the neighbour lol I hope she can teach me how to cook Italian food,
Preciso ver isso de camarote, preço bem baixo, vamos ao vídeo 😅
Too small space, too much work.
