What it really costs
Can you move in?
Not before the basics are done

At €78,000 for 80 sqm, the ask is €975/sqm; with a full restoration estimate of about €1,100/sqm, the effective cost is roughly €2,075/sqm. That is far above this catalog baseline of €408/sqm for Veneto townhouses, so despite being near Chioggia and about 5 km from the sea, the pricing looks weak for a complete renovation project.
More on the house and the area
This is a real little house with a garage and some outdoor space, but it shows as a plain renovation project rather than a dreamy Italian home. The interiors are roofed, floored and have a bathroom, so it is not a ruin, yet it needs substantial updating before it feels comfortable or attractive. At the price, it has practical potential more than wow appeal.
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.
Bringing a house that has stood empty back into service: new water, sewer and electricity, plus the practices. The same sum on an 80 m² house and on a 300 m² one, which is why a €40,000 house is not a €40,000 project.

- Complete renovation needed
- Interiors are basic/partly stripped and not ready to live in

- No proven view despite being near Chioggia/sea
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 62/100This is in the southern Venetian lagoon landscape, with flat reclaimed land, canals and fishing valleys close to the Adriatic. The Po Delta Regional Park is the main protected area in this part of the province, with wetlands, embankments, reed beds and lagoon water landscapes within the wider 15 km setting. Chioggia is the nearest substantial town, with a historic centre on canals, a fishing port and daily services. The area is known for lagoon fishing, aquaculture and market gardening on the coastal plain.
