INCREDIBLE ITALIAN PROPERTY at a bargain price in stunning Abruzzo close to both the sea and ski.

I love your channel……would it be possible to list the average weather temps and average rainfall ?

Now this one I like and the price is amazing! Def put a living room down stairs with a small bathroom on the right side and a staircase on the left. Glass patio doors out to the garden with a tiled space for a table and chairs, bbq etc. and then the caves can be used for storing plant pots and other outdoor things with nice lattice type doors.

What a stunning base to work with. Me personally. It would be one home. Downstairs living area with a beautiful garden. Put in a private staircase to the second floor and Wow. What a living space you would have. Beautiful on the outside. Gorgeous on the inside. Great home.

omg never

Is this an earthquake area?

Dreaming of a full staircase with bookshelves underneath and a larger bath downstairs - and oh the possibilities of that garden! Lovely views - would need more work to get it to my dream status but it’s priced accordingly for some lucky buyer. A good vibes place heart❤

What a beauty!!!! Private stairs to the upstairs bedrooms and it would be an absolute beautiful home. Clean up the garden area and wow, what a place. Gorgeous home. Great video and excellent find.

That storage under the stairs would be a coat closet & luggage & even a vacuum would fit in there. I'd love it!

I pick option 2. I'd want it all for myself, especially the garden for me two little pups. I agree where the stairs would go, especially since it doesn't have a balcony. I'd love to have the bedroom with a view as my bedtoom!! I love this house!! Maybe a half bath could go in under the stairs to the 2nd floor so you don't have to run up the stairs when hanging out downstairs.

👍

I absolutely must know more about the grottos. For those who visited on a tour, please report back!

Personally, I would want this to be one household and so would need private access to the 2nd floor.
I would however seriously consider installing an elevator rather than an internal staircase. Not only would that require minimum lost space on both levels, but even if it were a more expensive option in Italy than in North America, the cost would certainly be offset by the incredibly modest price of the property itself.
I've noticed elevators becoming more frequently seen in private homes lately, perhaps partially due to an ageing population, who like myself develop issues with stairs but would like to live in a 2 or 3 story home.
Some elevators require little more space than a large coat closet which would certainly make it feasible in this instance.

Stunning! Lots of great ideas for this beautiful place! Someone will be lucky to own this one!

Nine garden🎉🎉🎉🎉

Thats horrible!

For space saving you could tuck a spiral staircase in the corner of that small bedroom, and build a wall and make that bedroom a little shorter.

A funny aside on this one. I believe I already told the story regarding my quest for a place in Italy involving my special needs granddaughters. As fate would have it, the younger one came up as I was watching this video, and she has "some concerns" regarding this unit, especially where the bathroom is concerned. Highly suspicious of the bidet (of course) and also the fact that there is only one bathroom (how American). Well, I told you this might happen. Hahahaha Still enjoy your videos immensely, regardless of the 'supervision'.

BTW, she does approve of the views, so I thought that might make you feel better 😂

Those "caves" look a little too geometric. They are probably ancient catacombs. In many parts of Italy you can't build or dig bc of historical sights. Some have been well preserved, but some are in ruins.

I always hate the idea of having the kitchen dining room right in the front.
I'd make that front room a lounge guest reception or sitting room.
I'd then put a kitchen in the back room with dining and family room.
You might squeeze a wc into that closet under the stairway.
I'd want a spiral staircase or a dogleg one up from the back room.
I couldn't imagine trapsing up to bed on a communal stairway.
That back garden needs some serious work.

Could you do stairs outside

Love love love this. I would do two apartments: on the ground level a bath and bedroom in the back, kitchen/dining/living in front. The garden would stay a garden with fabulous romantic grottos, lush flowers, outdoor dining and grill. Upstairs I might do the kitchen/sitting room in the front and leave the two rooms in back as the bedrooms. Live on the ground floor and rent the upstairs unit to pay the bills. That's me sorted 😀

Hi All, I'm an australian with no Italian heritage. I realise I cant purchase property due to the countries reciprication policy with Australian residence. Is there any way of purchasing a property in Italy by becoming a resident of anither country. Thank you for you insight and advice.

Nice property Dave, that back room I would knock through the back wall to the garden and fit by fold doors all the way across.

CUTE! I'd leave it as 2 apts. adding a bathroom downstairs. I would open the wall between 2 bedrooms upstairs and create a large kitchen, dining and living room. Also paver part of the garden for a BBQ/al fresco dining area and a wine cellar in the other grotto with plants going up the rock. Thank you for another great video!

Looks stunning

This one really fills your mind thinking about what's possible.

This one's a beauty, David. I'd consider buying it now it if I were ready to move. Vittorito seems perfect for me and my family. I'd make this place one home, with interior stairs. Downstairs I'd have a MB, small lounge, a dining area, and a kitchen. In the end, this place would have 3 bedrooms in total, 2 full baths, a kitchen, a dining room, a downstairs lounge area, and an upstairs lounge/office area.

I'd make the currently undone room a master bedroom (MB). To accomplish that, I would put a second wall about 3 ft deep straight ahead into the currently undone room with an new door leading to the MB. This second wall to the MB would also create a new hallway space as you enter the currently undone room. In that new hallway space, I would add interior stairs to the upper floor room in left corner of the hallway space, and I would add a new ground floor bathroom on the right side of the hallway space.

I would put a table and L couch in the entry room near the open kitchen, and I would convert the unused fireplace to a cabinet for storing dishes.

The kitchen table would go in the corner close to the front window. The TV and L couch would be in the area by the wall where the phone is currently hanging. I would cut into the wall with the phone to create wall storage cabinets leading to that narrow storage area beneath the communal stairs.

The door in the kitchen beneath the communal stairs would lead to a food pantry.

Under the new stairs leading to the top floor in the currently undone area, inside the MB, I would add a storage closet.

In the upstairs room where the stairs would emerge, I would have a metal railing that separates the stairs from the rest of the room as opposed to a full new wall.

I would eventually make the caves outside into storage rooms and add stairs above them that lead to the street from the garden as the neighbor's did with their place.

I am impressed. Great job brining the light!!

There must be a story behind this one ! They've done 75% of the refurb then stopped? It's definitely one property. A job for the geometra to place a new staircase😂

I've watched a lot of your video's and aside from the occasional barking dog or cat, I see no life in these towns. They are almost devoid of any people. Where is everyone?

Great home🎉

This is the first time the outside has been more attractive than the inside.

Hi ! I think you could write a guide before starting the video , so you don’t get lost while showing the property . 25 minutes to see a property is way too much . Imagine me wanting ( I want) to buy a property and urbe to spend 25 minutes in each one .

I loved that house but one of the things that put me off was the street light, right out side the house which spoiled the view.

This is an amazing property! Lots of potential. Vittorito is just too small for me. I wish this property was in a more lively town.

Lindo! Muitas possibilidades e ainda tem um jardim. 🇧🇷

Dave, it’s a ski closet under the stairs! 😂

I laughed. I lived. I cried. And then I cried some more. The blockbuster hit of the summer. Both a tour de force and a tour de farce. This film clearly shows Dave's maturation as a filmmaker. I mean, he finally learned to bring a torch into a dark space. This is progress. 🙂

I’d have all the public areas on the front of the house where road noise wouldn’t pose a problem, I.e. Kitchen/lounge top and bottom. I would split the back room on the ground floor with one exterior door to each of a bathroom/laundry on the right while facing the back, and a decent sized bedroom on the left. Upstairs, the same, but with two bedrooms which I would lease out for income while I stayed cozy with my lovely garden on the ground floor.

I like it! Nice interior design, beautiful exterior, really nice view from every window, especially from upstairs, I love the street in front and love me some street lights illuminating my house, but I think it is spooked and that is why they did not finish renovating. Caves or whatever are creepy. With the sun shining in, it looked fine, but we need to see what is inside. Every time a house comes with such caves, they are not shown. For a creepy reason. 😂 I always imagine them to be a nice hiding place for confused zombies. I guess I watched too many horror movies. Well, the owner needs to tell you why they stopped renovating.

Great video - love your passion and ideas! As a US citizen dreaming of a life in Italy - cannot tell you how much I appreciate your videos! Thank you!

Thank you for all these great videos ❤I love that you discuss about the town and all.around..plus ur funny..looking to maybe buy a small home I also love Abruzzo my mom is from Corfinio. I've been many times ..thank you all these great videos..have you and ur family been there for a long time

Why is it so hard to get Italian cities spelled correctly

I love it. How well is the internet in these villages? Also what about the crazy Bureaucracy, I heard it can take years to close on a home in Italy ?

Nice! Rather than stairs, I would try to fit in a small one person elevator

I’m always looking for 3 bedrooms. I’d leave it like it is upstairs. Add a nice full bathroom downstairs and make the big room a nice living room. No need to add stairs, the stairs there are fine. Communal yes but oh well.

Just put in a small spiral staircase and you don't have to lose the bedroom. You still have the communal staircase for moving larger items. The small spiral staircase with just be for people going up and down.

I'd use the back bedroom on the right side for the staircase, with a space under the stairs for a half-bath (or whole bath?) on the first floor, since the plumbing from the kitchen and upstairs bathroom are right there.

I would make it into one space with a staircase. I wouldnt want to use a communal staircase.
