What it really costs

In the listingNeeds renovationSee what needs doing and what each job costs
The facts say 300 sqm at €80,000 (€267/sqm) needing renovation, but the description is clearly for a development project of 5 separate units (42.75–80.85 sqm each), not a single livable townhouse, so the core data do not match the listing. Because price, size, and sale object are contradictory, the apparent discount versus the €403/sqm baseline is not reliable.
More on the house and the area
The setting in Pieve di Cadore suggests strong Dolomite appeal, and the project drawings hint at a pleasant alpine-style result. But this gallery shows only technical plans, not an actual beautiful home you could fall in love with today. As presented, it reads as a renovation/development project rather than a proven, usable house.
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€59,000 – €105,000
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.
- Only plans/render-style documents are shown, not real photos of the existing property or views
- At €80k this appears to be a redevelopment/project opportunity, not a finished livable home
- Condition is effectively unproven from the gallery despite the renovation proposal
- Price may refer to one unit or project stage rather than a complete ready-to-live house
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 88/100The Dolomites are the landscape here, with the Monte Antelao group above the Cadore basin and the Marmarole and Sorapiss groups within the surrounding valleys. The Piave runs through Cadore, and Centro Cadore lake lies nearby. The Dolomiti Bellunesi National Park is not in the immediate basin, but the area is within the wider Cadore mountain system. The nearest ski lifts are at San Vito di Cadore and Cortina d’Ampezzo, roughly 20–35 minutes by road depending on the lift. Belluno is the nearest provincial town of size, while Cortina is the main nearby mountain centre with services and tourism infrastructure. Pieve di Cadore is known as the birthplace of Titian, and Cadore is known for alpine valleys, conifer forests and historic links to timber and mountain crafts.
