What it really costs

In the listingNeeds renovationSee what needs doing and what each job costs
At €30,000 (€67/m²), the headline price is low, but renovating 450 m² at about €700/m² brings the effective cost to roughly €767/m², well above the €403/m² local benchmark. The listing has only one photo, gives no energy information, and inconsistently describes the layout, so the renovation scope and actual feasibility are uncertain.
More on the house and the area
A striking old multi-storey townhouse with faded historic character, generous proportions, and an appealing €30,000 price for 450 sqm. The roof and main structure appear present, but the badly weathered facade and renovation status mean this is a substantial project rather than a move-in home.
Certified wiring, water and drainage, a heat source, a roof that keeps the water out, one working bathroom. Facade, insulation, a second bathroom and the floors wait.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Our read of the photos, €700/m², falls in this band.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€89,000 – €158,000
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.

No mains drain: add €2,000–4,500 for a septic tank. Listings never say, so ask.
- The property needs renovation, with visibly deteriorated plaster and an unverified interior condition.
- At 450 sqm and only one bathroom, renovation and ongoing maintenance could be substantial.
- No garden, terrace, or actual mountain view is shown; the house fronts directly onto a road.
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 75/100The cluster is in the Piave valley at the foot of the Dolomites, with steep mountain slopes close around Longarone. The Vajont gorge and dam are within about 10 km, and the southern edge of the Dolomiti Bellunesi National Park is within this radius around the valley side above Longarone. The nearest substantial town is Belluno, which has the full range of services and a historic centre. The nearest ski lifts are in the Zoldo area, roughly a 30–40 minute drive depending on the base station. This part of Belluno province is known for the 1963 Vajont disaster and for being one of the access valleys toward the Dolomite ranges.
