At €57,000 (€261/m²), the 218 m² townhouse is a deep upfront discount to comparable local listings, but it explicitly needs renovation. Using an estimated €700/m² renovation budget, the effective cost is about €962/m², well above the €417/m² local benchmark; the 120 m² private outdoor area and spacious layout add some appeal.
More on the house and the area
This is a large traditional Veneto farmhouse-style home with characterful shutters, exposed brick, old beams, a cellar, and around 120 sqm of private outdoor space. It is a real house with floors, kitchen, bathrooms, and intact roofing, but it needs substantial modernization and cosmetic repair rather than being a lightly refreshable home.
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€43,000 – €76,000
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.
- Substantial renovation is needed, including deteriorated plaster and masonry, outdated finishes, and likely electrical/heating upgrades.
- The property is spacious and has kitchens and bathrooms, but the overall interior is dated rather than move-in ready.
- No notable panoramic view; the setting is a quiet, ordinary residential/rural area.
- Verify the condition of the roof, structural elements, utilities, and the legal status of the accessory spaces.
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 39/100This is the flat mainland between Mestre and Treviso in the Venetian plain, with a landscape of fields, drainage canals, roads and scattered built-up areas. The Marzenego river runs through Salzano. Venice and the lagoon are outside the 15 km radius, so they matter for access and daily services but not as part of the immediate landscape. The nearest larger town is Mestre, which has the full range of urban services and rail connections.
