Sticker price €84,376 for 285 m² = €296/m², but adding an estimated €100/m² for minor works gives an effective ≈ €396/m² which is above the regional median €350/m². The property appears habitable with many modern features and 33 photos, but the listing data oddly shows 0 bathrooms, which is a contradiction to investigate.
More on the house and the area
Large, functional suburban villa that is clearly habitable but very dated. Good footprint, garage and private outdoor space make it a realistic, affordable home — but expect cosmetic renovation and repair to the exterior lean‑tos before it feels like a dream Italian house.
Decoration, tired fittings, a bathroom or a kitchen. The house is liveable as it stands.
Our read of the photos is €100/m². There is no published price band below €350/m², so the range is that figure widened by the spread of the lightest band.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€10,000 – €16,000
Wiring, water and sanitary work of any kind, heating, air conditioning and gas go to a registered firm by law, and so do flues and the air openings for gas appliances. That labour stays in the bill. Yours is the stripping out, plaster, paint, floors, tiling and carpentry.
Labour is 61% of a renovation price on average and 67% at the median, across 191 items of the Emilia-Romagna 2025 public price list. Materials are the rest. An averaged price list, not a quote.
Materials you buy yourself carry 22% VAT; supplied by the firm doing the work they go at the 10% renovation rate. On a €30,000 materials bill that is €3,600 of extra tax.
Household wiring installed before 13 March 1990 counts as compliant if it has a main breaker with overcurrent protection, protection against direct contact and a 30 mA RCD. Having a firm bring the existing wiring up to that and certify it is the cheapest lawful route.
- Interior and furnishings are dated and cluttered — needs declutter and cosmetic updating
- Outbuildings/covered lean‑to look poor and need repair or removal
- Suburban location with no notable views or historic features
Estimate from the listing and its photos, not a survey. Treat it as the starting point for your own quotes. An Italian builder's quote is normally written without VAT and without design fees, so add about a quarter to any figure a firm gives you.
The area around
Location score 34/100This is flat lowland around the Livenza River, with drainage canals, fields and scattered settlements typical of the eastern Veneto plain. The nearest larger town is Portogruaro, which has a historic centre, services and rail connections. Caorle and the north Adriatic coast are outside the immediate 15 km landscape and do not change the character of the area. The area is known mainly for agriculture and for being on the plain between Portogruaro and the coast.
