Condition not stated in the listingSee what needs doing and what each job costs
At €270/m², the asking price is about 31% below the local comparable baseline. However, the listing does not state the condition; energy class G and the emphasis on “great potential” suggest substantial work, bringing the estimated effective cost to about €970/m².
More on the house and the area
A substantial, characterful Veneto farmhouse with exposed timber ceilings, traditional shutters, a working kitchen, four bedrooms, and a generous private garden. It appears genuinely livable rather than a ruin, though the décor and bathroom are dated and the exterior needs patching; the large barn/storage spaces add potential but also maintenance obligations.
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€62,000 – €111,000
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.
- Interiors are fully usable but visibly dated and would benefit from cosmetic modernization.
- The property has only one bathroom for four bedrooms.
- Large attached storage/barn areas may need substantial maintenance or renovation.
- Energy class G implies potentially high heating and upgrade costs.
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 38/100The area is in the southern Padova plain near the Adige, with flat farmland, drainage canals and scattered villages. Monselice and Este are the nearest historic towns of note, both with walled and castle areas, but they are outside the immediate 15 km landscape. The Euganean Hills also lie beyond that radius and matter more for occasional outings than for the setting around the houses. This part of the lower Veneto plain is known for agriculture.
