I will have two comments on this video. I just needed to say I woke up this morning, came out to my kitchen to make breakfast and I started this video. I set my phone down to get something from my fridge and 18 seconds in we already have a “Stunner”. I literally said out loud, “oh no I’m not ready to start counting yet!”

Another amazing apartment in the middle of a lovely town. This is not an empty town, it has a great train station and everything you could ask for.

This will knock someone's socks off. The wall in the kitchen needs to be gone, expose some stone and bricks and you will have a piece of Italy with all the goodies in this town.. Great find Dave.

Let's call this one the Stairway to Heaven😂

A flat town with a train station... excellent! And big rooms, with lots of light on the main floor. Nice one!

David, my wife and I are planning on buying a vacation property in Italy and your coverage of the available properties is wonderful and very helpful for us. Thank you! We plan on using your services once we are ready.

Oh what a delight indeed, to have this at my fingertips. I had no idea, I just stumbled across this site.....Oh how beautiful, the birthplace of my precious and beautiful mother...I miss her so much...God is taking care of her now....

Dave seriously - best home ever! I would do our two offices in the rooms along the stairs. I would take out or arch the wall between the kitchen and living room. I’m soooo ready. Have to get me husband on board then we move! 7% flat tax town is important so Raiano meets the requirements. Grazie da Texas come sempre ❤

This place is a bit quirky but in a good way. Our only concern would be all the stairs. But then, that's part of the secret of staying healthy, right? This home could be moved into straight away and renovated over time. Agree with opening the kitchen to the dining room, modernizing the kitchen layout. Wonder if 1/2 bath off main bedroom could be enlarged a bit to accommodate a full bathroom? Second bedroom off stairs would be ideal for study/office. Top floor would make 2 nice guest rooms, bathroom, sitting area. Oh! The possibilities. You can't beat the location either. Another intriguing property, Dave.

Definitely going to need to do something about the stairs that hallway cover the door in the “tiny room” which is kind of creepy! 😳

The beauty of this place is that you could do some changes but also you can leave it as it is. I love this place. Location,location,location ❤

I love the location, and how beautiful it is on the inside. Just needs more bathrooms. Then finish the top floor. . It is stunning. 😃

Love the sound of church bells. It is very Italy.

Those beautiful church bells ❤

I would do one side of top floor bath and master closet, other side bedroom. Center sitting area.

I would leave the wall between the kitchen and dining room as is or maybe open up the doorway a tad with a narrow arch. I've ways been a fan of separate dining rooms because I don't like looking at he kitchen while entertaining guests.

It's a great property with some unique spaces. Thanks for sharing ❤

Another great one David! I would open that wall between the kitchen and dinning but I would close off the kitchen just past the fireplace and put another bathroom in with a bigger shower. The current full bath I'd change into a laundry room possibly leaving the commode and bidet in there. With a larger bathroom on the main floor I'd leave the little bathroom off the main bedroom just as it is. I'm not sure what I'd do with the top floor but there are so many options. Great start to the new year!

Now, if only I could see my cousin Daniele walk by...I'm throwing him a kiss just the same....God bless this amazing man and his precious and beautiful family...God take good care of them...I will see them soon.

A flat town with everything needed. Perfect!

I just loved everything about it. ❤

Loads of space at a very good price, great condition!---but very awkward layout (mitigated somewhat by the wee en suite in main bedroom). Underwhelming floor tile replacement, very odd little jump down from stairwell room, lovely attic space, could be super!

Charming & well maintained. Love the historic character. Tons of potential upstairs. Great location! 🙋‍♀💜

My brain is racing 🤯 ! That one is interesting, in a good way. Its stunning but the potential is GREAT! LOVE IT and LOVE Raiano. Thank you

The small room on the staircase near the second bedroom, if you notice, has hooks hanging from the ceiling. This means it was used for keeping hams, sausages and other food stuffs. Very old houses in England often had these hooks too in kitchens or adjacent rooms. A very nice place I wouldn’t do much more than re-decorate not everyone wants their kitchen in their dining room.

Thank you for this exquisite and most peaceful photo of the most beautiful place on earth.

In Italy they drive on the same side of the road as we do in America. Totally cool.

Thank you, Dave….great property. Happy New Year!

Thanks for the videos, they are fun to watch.

Love it

Well, the trailer was definitely spot on! Great spot - really starting to love Raino! Upstairs for sure master suite. Is there the possibility to put in air conditioning? Someone (Dave) mentioned in a video that that’s NOT always possible! This one is just fun!

Great place David for sure.... and for the money... You got the great atmosphere in the film as well. You could put 2 more bedrooms up top + a small bathroom. Teh staircase rooms are a bit too strange for me. Negotiating them in the middle of the night might be tough for me. But wow, good value and what they have refurbished they did well. Good luck to whoever buys this. Brotherly love from Australia.

Happy new year David..

I like this property and is far larger than I imagined.

I would make the whole upstairs the master bedroom and bathroom and widen the windows and put in skylights

Stunning property in a fantastic location. I would turn the attic into a master suite. Bathroom on one side and giant walk in closet on other side. Also remove wall between kitchen and living room and have a giant arch installed.

The possibilities!!! Love it!

Fabulous

Yes remove kitchen wall. Absolutely beautiful.

Beautiful apartment!:)

Very cool property. Thank you for this and keep up the great work!!

Nice 1 Dave, what a way to get 2024 started, it's a beaut!

Stunning count (I’m going to include stunner in here): 4 I think there is sooo much potential with the kitchen and the upstairs area. I’m assuming the camera’s wide angle is distorting the view of the space, but it seems pretty tight quarters in a few areas.

Would be great & helpful to include a look at the train station, the grocery store, a restaurant, a bar etc. That’s so key 🔑

This is a super bright apartment, spaces are nice and big. Overall, beautiful! I agree with you, that the kitchen wall should come down. I'd take down the plaster on the exterior walls, to reveal stone if there is any to see, and the floors would be replaced with large terracotta tiles in a diagonal pattern- 15x15" tiles maybe? Then outlined in a smaller tile- possibly patterned. The main level is a bit plain right now for us, hence the small reno ideas, but that attic space... WOW! That would be the master suite for sure. One side bedroom with added windows. The center space would be an office to keep that beautiful light flowing as it is, perhaps add a window if the city allows it. The other room would be the master bath. The angled area would be a closet with built in drawers and hanging space. OMG, so many ideas... the lower staircase would need to be re-jigged a bit to allow for a larger landing for the bottom bedroom and that smaller weird space. Then the doorway to the smaller space would have to be made bigger, to allow for a proper entry into the room. If there was stone to expose in the stairwell, that would be done too, and I would definitely expose the ceiling in the entrance bedroom. Lots of potential to create a really unique home. Rental potential too with that lower bedroom if you turned the smaller space into a bathroom..hmmmmm. Another great property !

I change out those metal kitchen cabinets and that’s about all I do in the kitchen maybe new appliances. Up in the attic rooms I would not put in a skylight window. I open up the windows a little bit bigger and just clean up the walls and put up banister around the stairwell looks kind of dangerous that’s it. Life’s good.

I can see the potential 💚

Great price for a pristine house... definitely move in ready, you can get rid of that kitchen wall and finish off the attic when time allows. 👍🏼

I wouldn't take out the wall, what would you do with the frig?

This is every cleaners absolute nightmare.

I love this home. I’ll be in a position to purchase a home in Italy soon. Preferably this one. However, I’m afraid this house will sell fast.

This place is so beautiful. I love this apartment❤ I also love in Italy the homes don’t have carpet. Here the US a lot of homes have carpet and I have allergies so it’s bad for people like me who have allergies.

Stunning ❤! I was wondering, what was the building before it was converted into housing?

Excellent review and a very quirky place but nice. I agree Dave I'd ditch the wall between kitchen and dining. renovate the kitchen with an island counter and seating, as well as a revised dining in the new enlarged and brighter space. Really cool. or should I say stunning?

It’s querky and wonderful. The spaces could be fun. If I had the 98euro Id consider it. Always fun to see.

I would make that upper area a master bedroom with a large bathroom on one side & nice closet area on the other. I may move a washer & dryer into that closet & expand the shower in that original bathroom. I would knock out that wall between the kitchen & dining room like you suggested. I only need one dining table!

No shower needed at main bedroom. Just enough to not walk up stairs in the middle of the night

It’s really good of you to go to the trouble of explaining a good solution and doing it so politely. Sorry if I sounded harsh and thanks again!

Very nice this one. I'd knock out the kitchen wall as you mentioned and given the upstairs' fantastic space I'll turn the weird bedroom into an office space. We'll be trying to visit beautiful Abruzzo in August (I know it's hot but my niece from abroad can only come in that timeframe): any suggestions on where to book a place? I mean as a town to move around easily by car without splurging money for accomodations. Your area (Chieti province) or Sulmona area? Also happy new year to you and you family ❤

Love!

I bet it's "stunning" !!!!!!

Fab location with wonderful outlook and views.

Interesting for sure. I thought is was rather ordinary until you went up to the attic AND the lower bedroom.

Cool space. But you are living on top of a giant parking lot 🅿️ 😮

дом прекрасный! много лабиринтов! :)) что плохо-под окнами парковка, площадь, много машин и дышать выхлопами машин задержавшимся между домами ......

Love the idea of Italy, but these towns are so empty it's a bit scary to invest in such a place.

You were looking for a color to call that building. I would call it a peach.

You are 100% spot on! Take down the wall between the kitchen and the dining room”room” you will make the apartment look twice the size. That will probably wreck those floors though 🤷‍♂️

I'm stunned by how stunning this stunningly stunning apartment is. Love a lot of the features, but then again there are some odd spaces that leave me questioning what to do with them. Stairs to a second bedroom that cuts into the stairs with more stairs? That odd claustrophobic room along the stairway? Interesting to say the least. I just found out that as a Canadian, I can't buy property in Italy. I will have to look into getting my Italian passport in that case. Thanks for sharing this stunning property, David.

I still didn’t get reply to my previous message and I’m bit reluctant to make any comments for this property, :(

Very nice, Stunning property and 10 point location. And Happy new year from cold Finland.

Like 2 know if this propperty is still on the market. 😏 also just "perfetto" !! ❤

My only concern would be the noisiness living off the square?

Looks promising. Gr8 location tho! Top - floor : ensuite with a walk-in closet and a terrace....if geomatra ok'd😊 😊😊 I always look fwd to yr house wknd reveal. Thank you for a lovely wknd.

Lots of potential!

I was wondering where one would park and why you didn" t mention whether or not one could park on the street when suddenly I was able to read the sign in front of the corner of the house. Parking for residents only. So, if I am correct, it' s guaranteed you could park just outside.

Hello all! I keep hearing references to bars. Are Italian bars more like places to gather rather than places to drink alcohol...or are they like American bars where you go for your alcoholic beverages? Which brings up another question... With so many bars, do people have to deal with a lot of drunkenness in the streets?

Lovely flat.

Hello which airport do you go to for this area. Is there a high school and do they speak any English .. Is there a market , what is the name of the ski area and how far to the ski and beach .I love your videos , Is it just abruzzo area you cover .

I am wanting a house that I can grow my fruit and veg but still close enough to travel to the city . Can you advise me the area, I love mountains , lakes and beaches,

Is this house sold? I dont see it listed anywhere anymore? thank you

Parking spot??

Bella casa, ma le scale sono strane, e un po' pericolose,

Are the other two mini garages downstairs part of the property?

There is no shower??

Has anybody tried to get a hold of David by email? I have tried to write 3 times with no responce for over 2 months now. If you see this post David, I would love to get a hold of you since I am interested in buying a flat though you :)

David, Happy New Year to you and your lovely family! It's a great place that could be two apartments. I didn't see the cost of the place at all unless, I had missed it. Is it possible to find something for single retired senior citizen living alone on a fixed income people. Great job!

Furnished?

Sorry this one is not worth the money and I don't like how it's laid out. I want a move in.

Dave you gotta use a different word to compliment things. I am either desensitized or irritated. I avoid your video even though the rest of the production is good. C’ mon please
