Edificio
In pieno centro storico a San Vito di Leguzzano, proponiamo un compendio immobiliare storico suddiviso catastalmente in cinque unità indipendenti — due abitazioni, due locali commerciali fronte strada e un magazzino — per circa 537 mq catastali complessivi. L'immobile necessita di un intervento di recupero integrale:…
What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €98,000 for 600 sqm the asking price is just €163/sqm versus a €262/sqm local baseline, but the building needs integral restoration with compromised floors/structures and all systems redone, so I estimate about €1,100/sqm renovation. That pushes the effective cost to roughly €1,263/sqm, which is far above the baseline despite the attractive historic-center setting and multi-unit potential.
More on the house and the area
There is real historic charm here: a handsome arched façade, big internal courtyard/garden, old beams and a fireplace, all in the town center. But this is fundamentally a major restoration project, not a livable home today, with damaged structures and stripped, decayed interiors. The beauty is potential rather than present-day usability.
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€238,000 – €351,000
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 integral restoration is needed; compromised floors and horizontal structures are explicitly stated.
- Not a move-in home: no visible usable bathrooms or finished kitchen/living spaces.
- Some sections look partially open/unstable, so structural works will likely be significant.
- Mixed-use multi-unit complex may involve more complex planning and permissions.
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 52/100The cluster sits on the northwestern Vicenza plain at the foot of the Vicentine Prealps, with Monte Pasubio and the upper Leogra-Astico mountain belt forming the nearby horizon. The nearest substantial town is Schio, which has full everyday services and rail links, and Vicenza is the main city for higher-level services. This part of the province is known for a mix of small industry and farming on the plain, with the prealpine valleys beginning a short drive to the north.
