What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €100,000 for 138 sqm, the ask is €725/sqm; the description clearly says renovation works are needed, so I estimate about €700/sqm renovation, bringing the effective cost to roughly €1,425/sqm. That is far above this catalog baseline of €406/sqm for Veneto townhouses, so despite the decent size and 3 bathrooms, this looks weak on price rather than a bargain.
More on the house and the area
This is a real, usable house rather than a shell: tiled floors, bathrooms, staircase, terrace and multiple finished rooms are all in place. The stone exterior wall and leafy setting add some charm, but the interiors are plain and need furnishing and refreshing to feel special. At 138 sqm for €100k, it has solid live-in potential more than true dream-home wow.
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€27,000 – €48,000
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.
- Interiors are basic and somewhat stark, with limited character as shown.
- Needs finishing/personalization and likely some updating despite being usable.
- No proven panoramic view from the photos, only leafy surroundings.
- Outdoor space looks modest and a bit enclosed rather than spectacular.
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 71/100The cluster sits in the Euganean Hills, a volcanic hill group that rises abruptly from the plain south-west of Padova. The closest named high points in the group include Monte Rua and Monte Venda, and the roads around Galzignano run between wooded slopes, vineyards and cultivated valley bottoms. This area is part of the Parco Regionale dei Colli Euganei. The nearest town of size is Padova, with a large historic centre, rail links, hospitals and full city services. Arquà Petrarca, within the Euganean Hills, is listed among I Borghi più belli d’Italia. The area is known for thermal spa activity linked to the Euganean basin, olive oil and wine from the Colli Euganei.
