More on the house and the area
The old brick floors, exposed timber roof structure, and weathered masonry offer genuine historic character. However, this is explicitly a 100 sqm warehouse completely to be restored, with no documented living spaces or bathrooms, so it is a substantial project rather than a usable Italian home.
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€40,000 – €59,000
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.
- Advertised as a warehouse, not a residential home, and completely to be restored.
- No bathrooms, bedrooms, or kitchen are documented; residential conversion may require approvals and major utility work.
- Interiors show extensive deterioration, dated services, storage clutter, and likely structural/restoration needs despite the roof appearing intact.
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 82/100The canalized Brenta river runs through the area and the Riviera del Brenta — a continuous line of historic villas and gardens built by Venetian nobles — lies within the local landscape; notable nearby villas include Villa Foscari (La Malcontenta, in the locality of Malcontenta) and Villa Pisani (Stra). Several Palladian villas in the immediate area belong to the group of Andrea Palladio's villas in the Veneto that are included in the UNESCO World Heritage listing. The terrain is low-lying Venetian plain crossed by canals, agricultural land and stretches of suburban/ribbon development along the river. The Venetian Lagoon lies to the east and the area is part of the mainland corridor between Padua and Venice within the wider Venice metropolitan zone. Nearby towns inside the ~15 km radius include Dolo and Stra; Stra has Villa Pisani and associated visitor facilities. There are no mountains or ski lifts within the local 15 km radius; the Dolomites are well beyond daily reach. Road and public-transport links provide direct connections toward Venice and Padua.
