Price €95,000 for 320 m² but listed as “Needs renovation”; estimating €700/m² renovation (~€224,000) gives an effective price ≈€319,000 (~€997/m²), about 2.4× the Veneto median of €409/m², so it looks overpriced as a full renovation project. Listing omits energy class and year and shows 0 baths, so key data are missing.
More on the house and the area
A large, traditional rural farmhouse with old plaster, shutters and an attached open barn set beside vineyards — plenty of rustic character. The main building appears roofed but the barn is partially open and the whole property needs substantial renovation before it becomes a comfortable home.
Certified wiring, water and drainage, a heat source, a roof that keeps the water out, one working bathroom. Facade, insulation, a second bathroom and the floors wait.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Our read of the photos, €700/m², falls in this band.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€63,000 – €112,000
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.
Bringing a house that has stood empty back into service: new water, sewer and electricity, plus the practices. The same sum on an 80 m² house and on a 300 m² one, which is why a €40,000 house is not a €40,000 project.

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 38/100The area is the flat alluvial plain east of Verona, with the Adige running nearby and intensively farmed land around the settlements. Verona is the nearest city of size and has the full range of services, rail connections, a major historic centre and UNESCO status. The Lessini Mountains are north of the plain but outside the immediate landscape of the cluster.
