At €1,523/m², or roughly €1,723/m² including an estimated €13,000 of works, this is far above the €618/m² local benchmark despite the private garden, garage, and energy class D. The apartment is currently rented for €600/month until 31 July 2027, and the listing does not say whether it is immediately available or recently renovated.
More on the house and the area
A bright, polished ground-floor apartment with a fully equipped kitchen, comfortable interiors, and a genuine private garden for outdoor dining or relaxing. It looks immediately livable and includes a garage, making it a practical home rather than a renovation project, though its appeal is mainly its condition and garden rather than spectacular scenery or architectural character.
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€4,000 – €7,000
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 apartment is currently rented until July 31, 2027, so it is not immediately available for personal use.
- The home is attractive and turnkey but lacks distinctive historic character or a remarkable view.
- The garage appears functional but utilitarian.
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 57/100The area is in the southern Veneto plain between the Euganean Hills to the northeast and the first low rises toward the Berici and Lessini farther west, but the immediate surroundings are flat farmland crossed by minor canals and roads. The Frassine river runs by Montagnana. Montagnana itself is known for its complete medieval walled circuit with gates and towers, and it is listed among I Borghi più belli d'Italia. The nearest larger centres are Este and Monselice to the northeast, with services, rail links and historic town centres.
