At €60,001 (€108/m²), this 557 m² villa is unusually inexpensive; even allowing about €200/m² for a habitable property, the effective cost is roughly €308/m² versus a €347/m² local benchmark. The detailed amenity list and 33 photos support a credible, livable offer, though the listing does not state the number of bathrooms or energy class.
More on the house and the area
This is a very large, functioning house with kitchens, bathrooms, heating, garage space, and some appealing exposed-beam ceilings. However, the exterior is plain and urban, while the interiors are cluttered, dated, and only modestly characterful, so it feels more like a practical bargain than a dream Italian home.
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€37,000 – €62,000
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.
- Interiors are habitable but heavily cluttered and dated, with visible cosmetic repairs needed.
- The property is exceptionally large at 557 sqm; verify the exact layout, legal status, and which areas are fully usable.
- No attractive landscape, village, or scenic view is shown in the gallery.
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, a flat agricultural area crossed by irrigation canals and minor roads between the Adige plain and the lower Veronese countryside. The Adige runs a few kilometres to the west. Legnago is the nearest town of size, with shops, services and a hospital. Verona is farther north and matters for work, rail links and the airport, but it is outside the immediate landscape. The area is known for arable farming and rice-growing on the plain.
