Price EUR 27,000 plus estimated renovation EUR 200/m² (EUR 19,800) gives an effective cost of ~EUR 46,800 or EUR 473/m². That is ~35% above the Veneto baseline of EUR 350/m²; the house is habitable with many photos but not a clear bargain at this effective price.
More on the house and the area
A modest, habitable Veneto villa with a private fenced courtyard, garage and cellar — you could move in but it needs decluttering and updating. Not photogenic or historic, but the low price and usable layout make it a realistic, affordable home to renovate.
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€7,000 – €11,000
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.
- Clearly lived-in and cluttered — needs thorough cleaning and cosmetic renovation
- Old boiler and exposed utility area suggest heating/plumbing upgrades likely needed
- Attached to neighbouring houses and no scenic view; small paved court rather than a large garden
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.
