The €22,500 asking price is exceptionally low at €108/m², but allowing roughly €700/m² for likely renovation brings the effective cost to about €803/m², above comparable local pricing. The listing is sparse and does not state the condition or bathrooms, so the true renovation burden is unclear.
More on the house and the area
This is a substantial traditional townhouse with shutters, tiled floors, a brick arch, a private garden, and a usable-looking bathroom and living space. It appears roofed and inhabitable rather than a ruin, but significant cleaning, repairs, and modernization would be needed before it feels like a comfortable dream 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€41,000 – €73,000
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.
- The property is heavily overgrown outside and appears neglected.
- Interior photos show damp staining, clutter, and unfinished or damaged areas, especially around the kitchen.
- No scenic views or distinctive Italian setting are visible; the house is on a plain roadside.
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 34/100The area is the lower Po plain, with flat agricultural land and drainage canals around the Po di Venezia branch of the river. Adria is the nearest larger town, with everyday services and rail connections, and Rovigo is the main provincial centre for wider services. This part of Polesine is known for reclaimed land, irrigated farming and levees along the Po.
