What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €55,000 for 154 sqm, the ask is €357/sqm; assuming a renovation project at about €700/sqm, the effective cost is roughly €1,057/sqm, well above the Veneto farmhouse baseline of €295/sqm. Still, this is a full 155 sqm rural house portion with private garden and adjacent land, and the text presents it as a residential property rather than storage or agricultural annex.
More on the house and the area
There is some appeal in the rustic rural setting, private garden and the very low price per square metre. But this looks like a tired farmhouse portion needing substantial work before it feels beautiful or comfortably livable. It reads more as a renovation project than an immediate dream-home scroll stopper.
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€30,000 – €54,000
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.
- Needs major renovation and updating throughout
- Exterior shows cracking, damp staining and worn render
- Interiors shown are very basic with no clear finished bathroom/livable setup
- Rural roadside setting is green but not especially scenic or private
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 76/100Monte Grappa rises immediately north of Mussolente, with the first slopes starting at the edge of the settlement and the summit area about 10 km away. The Brenta runs across the plain just to the south-west, and the area sits where the foothills meet the upper Venetian plain. The Monte Grappa massif is protected as a biosphere reserve and is known for its war memorial zone and panoramic high meadows. Bassano del Grappa is the nearest town of size, with a substantial historic centre, services, rail links and the Ponte Vecchio over the Brenta. The area is known for grappa production and for cycling and paragliding on Monte Grappa.
