This is a 600 m² land lot with an outbuilding, not a legally habitable 130 m² home; the advertised 130 m² refers to possible replacement/new-build volume. At €70,000 before demolition, permits and construction, the effective cost is highly uncertain and unsuitable for buyers seeking a livable house.
More on the house and the area
The old brick farmhouse has appealing Veneto character, with terracotta roofs, timber cladding, and a 600 sqm plot near open fields. However, it is currently a bare, overgrown agricultural structure rather than a livable home, with renovation or demolition explicitly contemplated in the listing.
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€51,000 – €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.
- This is an uninhabitable farmhouse annex requiring major renovation or demolition and reconstruction.
- No finished interior, kitchen, bathroom, or clearly usable living space is shown.
- The roof and masonry appear aged; verify structural condition, planning permissions, utilities, and reconstruction rights.
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 52/100The cluster lies in the southern Venetian plain between the Brenta-Adige lowlands and the Lagoon of Venice, with flat reclaimed farmland, canals and embankments as the immediate landscape. The southern lagoon and the channels around Chioggia are within about 15 km, and the beaches and seafront at Sottomarina are also in that range. Chioggia is the nearest town of size, with a working historic centre, fishing port and daily services. This part of the area is known for market gardening, fishing and lagoon environments tied to the wider Venetian lagoon system.
