See what needs doing and what each job costs
The €50,000 asking price looks low at €250/m², but the 200 m² house requires substantial renovation, bringing the estimated all-in cost to about €230,000 (€1,150/m²), well above comparable local pricing around €403/m². The 7,600 m² of agricultural land and an additional ruined building add space but do not offset the major renovation burden.
More on the house and the area
A generous Veneto farmhouse with a photogenic fruit-tree courtyard, open countryside, and more than 7,600 square metres of land. It is a genuine, roofed and furnished house with a kitchen, bathroom, bedrooms, and attractive old wooden floors—not an empty shell—but the damp, cracked finishes and obsolete interiors make renovation unavoidable.
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, €900/m², falls in this band.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€40,000 – €70,000
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 house needs substantial renovation, including damp/plaster repairs, repainting, and likely electrical and plumbing updates.
- Only one dated bathroom is shown, and the kitchen and heating systems appear basic or old.
- The property includes a large rural plot and an additional derelict outbuilding, which may require maintenance or demolition.
- Flat countryside surroundings are peaceful but offer no dramatic sea, mountain, or village view.
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 58/100This is the southern Padovano plain near the Adige, in a flat agricultural landscape of fields, drainage canals and scattered villages. The Colli Euganei rise to the north at roughly 15 km and are the nearest distinct relief; they form a regional park with volcanic hills, woods, vineyards and spa towns around the margins. Monselice is the nearest larger town in the area, with a walled hill, a castle complex and rail links; Este is also nearby and has a historic centre and the Carraresi castle. The area is known for irrigated agriculture on the plain, with the Euganean hills marking the main landscape feature of daily life nearby.
