See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €19,500 (€89/m²), the price is far below the local comparison level, but this is an executive-procedure auction and the building is described as severely dilapidated. The advertised photos may not show the actual property, and substantial restoration costs and legal due diligence are required.
More on the house and the area
The setting is appealing: a large rural plot beside the Brenta waterway, with greenery, fields, and traditional tiled roofs. However, the house looks severely neglected, and the listing describes it as fatiscente rather than move-in ready; this is a major restoration project, not yet a dream home.
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€87,000 – €128,000
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.

- The property is explicitly described as being in a precarious, dilapidated condition and needing substantial renovation.
- No interior photos are provided, so livability, utilities, layout, and structural condition cannot be confirmed.
- This is an executory/procedure property, requiring careful legal and technical due diligence.
- The listing warns that some images may be indicative of the area rather than the actual property. There may also be significant road and traffic exposure.
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 43/100The cluster lies on the southern Venetian plain between the Bacchiglione and Brenta water systems, in flat reclaimed farmland with drainage canals and lagoon-edge wetlands. The Venetian Lagoon is nearby, and the southern lagoon landscape around Chioggia and the mouths of the Brenta and Adige shapes the area more than any hill or mountain. The nearest town of size is Chioggia, which has a historic centre, fishing port and daily services; Padova is the main larger city for higher-order services. The area is known for market gardening, reclaimed agricultural land and the lagoon-fishing environment.
