What it really costs

Not before the basics are done
Condition not stated in the listingSee what needs doing and what each job costs
At €32,000 (€18/m² including approximately 1,800 m² of land), the headline price is low, but the seven-room rustico is completely to renovate and its actual building area is not stated. One photo and unclear separation between agricultural and buildable land make the true redevelopment cost and value difficult to verify.
More on the house and the area
The main appeal is the generous 1,800 sqm of private green land and the quiet, independent setting near Cavarzere. The farmhouse itself is a substantial but fully renovation-dependent rustico, with no demonstrated livable interior, so this is a redevelopment project rather than a ready 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€713,000 – €1,053,000
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.
- Completely to renovate, with no confirmed bathroom, kitchen, utilities, or habitable interior.
- The single photo is heavily obscured by trees, so the home's architectural character and actual condition are difficult to verify.
- The property includes agricultural land; the claimed buildable portion and expansion potential require legal and planning confirmation.
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 44/100This is the lower Po plain around the Adige and the network of reclaimed fields, canals and drainage works that shape the southern edge of the Venice province. The Po Delta Regional Park lies partly within this radius on the Veneto side, with lagoon and wetland landscapes toward the mouth of the Adige and Po di Levante. The nearest coast is the Adriatic at Rosolina Mare and the barrier-lagoon area around the delta. Chioggia is the nearest town of size, with a historic centre, fishing port and full services. The area is known for flat agricultural land, market gardening, fishing and wetland landscapes linked to the Po Delta.
