What it really costs
Can you move in?
Not before the basics are done
In the listingNeeds renovationSee what needs doing and what each job costs
At €50,000 for 115 sqm, the ask is €435/sqm; with a typical needs-renovation budget of about €700/sqm, effective cost is roughly €1,135/sqm versus a low-stock baseline of €403/sqm in Veneto townhouses. Solid structure and concrete floors help, but 1950s finishes, only 1 photo, and no garage/garden make this an ordinary-to-weak renovation deal rather than a bargain.
More on the house and the area
This is a solid, full-size townhouse at a very low price, but the visible wow is limited. The facade looks tired rather than charming, and with no garden, no view, and no interior photos, it reads as a practical renovation project more than a dream Italian home. The description suggests a usable structure, so it is not a ruin, but it lacks proven beauty.
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€23,000 – €41,000
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.
Bringing a house that has stood empty back into service: new water, sewer and electricity, plus the practices. The same sum on an 80 m² house and on a 300 m² one, which is why a €40,000 house is not a €40,000 project.

No mains drain: add €2,000–4,500 for a septic tank. Listings never say, so ask.
- Facade is quite worn and needs renovation
- No garden or garage
- Only one exterior photo, so interior character/view are unproven
- Main-road setting looks functional rather than romantic
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 34/100This is the southern Veronese plain in the Valli Grandi Veronesi, with flat reclaimed farmland, canals and embankments around the Tartaro-Tione system. The area lies between Verona and Legnago; Legnago is the nearest larger town and has the usual rail, shops and services. The Po plain landscape dominates here, with fields, drainage works and scattered hamlets rather than a named hill or mountain setting. Verona is farther away and matters for access, not for the immediate landscape. The area is known for agriculture and for the historic wetland-reclamation landscape of the lower Veronese plain.
