At €76,000, the effective cost is roughly €1,817/m² after allowing €1,100/m² for the substantial restoration, versus a local reference level of €317/m². The description claims about 150 m² while the listing facts state 106 m², and much of the building is currently cellar space requiring conversion into living areas.
More on the house and the area
This rustic farmhouse has genuine historic character, a private garden, and a striking mountain-and-village view with a picturesque church tower. However, it is currently a renovation project rather than a livable home: the interiors are not presented as finished, and the description says the habitation still needs to be created.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Our read of the photos, €1,100/m², falls in this band.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€42,000 – €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.
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.

- Major renovation required; the upper floors are described as spaces to be converted into living accommodation.
- No usable interior, kitchen, or finished bathroom is shown in the gallery.
- Roof and exterior fabric appear aged and will need careful structural and weatherproofing assessment.
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 71/100The area is in the upper Val d'Astico, with the southern edge of the Vicentine Prealps around it and steep wooded slopes closing the valley. The Astico river runs through the valley floor. The Altopiano dei Sette Comuni lies nearby to the east, and the Pasubio and Piccole Dolomiti group are within the surrounding mountain system. The nearest ski area is Folgaria-Fiorentini, reached in about 35–45 minutes by road depending on the hamlet. Arsiero is the nearest small service town in the valley; Thiene and Schio are the larger towns used for broader services and rail connections. The area is known for its prealpine valley landscape and mountain access rather than for a major protected status or a single monument site within the immediate radius.
