What it really costs
- Registered as agricultural or storage, not as a dwelling
See what needs doing and what each job costs
The listing is explicitly a magazzino C/2 in an agricultural zone with storage/barn uses only, so it is not legally a dwelling under the stated facts. At €50,000 for 150 sqm (€333/sqm) it looks cheap, but the legal-use veto overrides price and renovation potential.
More on the house and the area
The big brick arches and old beams give it rustic farmhouse character, and the attached garden adds some appeal. But this is clearly a former agricultural storage building, not a usable home: the interiors are bare, unfinished and not currently livable. It feels like a conversion project rather than a cheap Italian house you could actually move into.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Our read of the photos, €1,100/m², falls in this band.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€59,000 – €88,000
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.
- It is a non-residential warehouse/agricultural outbuilding (C/2), not shown as a legal home.
- Full renovation is needed; interiors are raw, empty and barn-like rather than habitable.
- No bathroom, kitchen or finished living spaces are visible.
- Structure appears aged with cracked plaster and weathered timber, so costs could escalate.
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 58/100The area sits on the central Venetian plain between Treviso, Bassano del Grappa and Vicenza, with flat farmland, irrigation channels and scattered villas. Castelfranco Veneto itself has a complete medieval walled centre with the civic tower and cathedral, and it is known as the birthplace of Giorgione. Within about 15 km there are other plain towns such as Cittadella, whose ring of medieval walls is intact and walkable. The nearest substantial city is Treviso, which provides the larger range of services, rail links and airport access farther away. The Dolomites and the Adriatic are not part of the immediate landscape here.
