Asking €59k for 400 m2 (raw €148/m2) looks very cheap, but a modest renovation estimate of €200/m2 adds €80k giving an effective €139k (≈€348/m2), essentially in line with the regional baseline of €350/m2. Solid signals: 30 photos, autonomous heating, garage and cellar, so the property reads as habitable rather than a ruin.
More on the house and the area
Large, intact town villa with a private garden, garage and cellar — solid, liveable bones and generously sized rooms. Interiors are dated and show damp-related damage and cosmetic wear, so plan for refurbishment. At €59k for ~400 m² this is a strong bargain if you want space in Veneto.
Decoration, tired fittings, a bathroom or a kitchen. The house is liveable as it stands.
Our read of the photos is €200/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€26,000 – €44,000
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.
- Visible rising damp / peeling plaster in several rooms — remedial work required
- Cosmetic renovation needed (floors, skirtings, finishes and façade cleaning/repair)
- Plain town location with no special views
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 38/100This is the southern Veronese plain between Verona and the lower Adige, with flat agricultural land and a dense network of drainage canals and minor roads. The Adige runs to the north of the area, and the Po plain landscape dominates daily life here. Nogara is the nearest town of some size with everyday services and a railway station, and Verona is the main city for higher-order services and monuments.
