What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
This 80 sqm townhouse is explicitly da ristrutturare in Chioggia historic center, so I estimate about €1,100/m² renovation; effective cost is roughly €2,038/m² (€75k + works), far above the very low Veneto townhouse baseline of €403/m². The location is a plus (historic center, 2 km from the sea, 25 photos), but the price only looks fair once full restoration costs are included.
More on the house and the area
The dream here is Chioggia’s historic center and the classic narrow townhouse layout, with some modest character in the beams and old proportions. But the actual property is currently very worn, with visible moisture damage and failing finishes, so it is a serious renovation project rather than a home you could soon live in. At €75k in central Chioggia it has appeal, but the wow comes more from potential than present reality.
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€32,000 – €47,000
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.
- Full renovation required; photos show heavy damp, cracked plaster and damaged ceilings.
- Some upper rooms look close to shell condition rather than lightly refreshable.
- No view, terrace or outdoor space shown.
- Listing images include staged after-renovation renders, not the current livable condition.
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 64/100The cluster is in the lagoon landscape at the southern end of the Venetian Lagoon, with canals, saltmarsh edges and fishing infrastructure around Chioggia and Sottomarina. The Adriatic coast is close, with the long beach at Sottomarina on the barrier strip. The Brenta and Adige mouths are in the wider delta plain nearby, and the Po Delta regional park system begins to the south in daily driving range but not inside the immediate landscape. Chioggia itself is a historic canal town with a fish market, working port and regular boat links across the lagoon toward Venice. The area is known for fishing, lagoon produce and beach tourism.
