What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
The listing says habitable, so estimated renovation is about €200/m²; that makes the effective cost roughly €1,025/m² (€99k + ~€24k on 120 m²), far above the local baseline of €402/m². Large courtyard and double garage help, but it is in a rural peripheral location and the baseline sample is strong, so this looks expensive for this stock.
More on the house and the area
The listing text suggests a practical, immediately habitable country house with decent space, private yard and a double garage at a low €/m² price. But with only a placeholder image, there is no evidence of views, charm, historic character or photogenic interiors, so the wow factor stays low despite likely usability.
Decoration, tired fittings, a bathroom or a kitchen. The house is liveable as it stands.
Our read of the photos is €200/m². There is no published price band below €350/m², so the range is that figure widened by the spread of the lightest band.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€8,000 – €13,000
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.
- Only a placeholder image is shown, so there is no visual proof of beauty or character
- Condition is stated as habitable, but photos do not confirm interiors or exterior quality
- Countryside peripheral location may be peaceful but appears unremarkable from available evidence
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 39/100The area is on the flat lower Adige plain, with the Adige river running nearby and a landscape of fields, drainage channels and small settlements. Within this radius the nearest town of size is Legnago, which has the main services, shops and rail connections for the area. Verona is farther away and matters more for work and transport than for the immediate landscape. This part of southern Verona province is known for irrigated agriculture on the plain.
