See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €45,000 for 80 m², estimated renovation adds about €56,000, bringing the effective cost to roughly €1,262/m² versus a local reference of €347/m². The home needs renovation, has only one photo, and the listing gives little detail on the building condition or technical status.
More on the house and the area
A charming, weathered village house with rustic shutters, exposed stone, and genuine historic character in the Euganean Hills. It appears to be a real two-level home rather than a ruin, but the facade and description indicate meaningful renovation is needed, while the garden and annex could add appeal.
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€16,000 – €28,000
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 72/100The Euganean Hills rise immediately around Este, a compact group of volcanic hills that give this part of the plain a distinct relief. The Frassine and Bisatto waterways run through the area, and the wider setting is the southern edge of the Euganean plain. Much of the surrounding hill country falls within the Parco Regionale dei Colli Euganei. The nearest larger city is Padova, which provides the full range of urban services and rail connections. Arquà Petrarca, within the Euganean Hills, is listed among I Borghi più belli d'Italia. The area is known for vineyards, olive groves, and historic walled hill and plain settlements linked to the Colli Euganei.
