What it really costs
Can you move in?
Livable, but something basic is worn out
In the listingHabitableSee what needs doing and what each job costs
At €75,000 for 112 sqm, the ask is €670/sqm; with a habitable-home allowance of about €200/sqm, the effective cost is roughly €870/sqm versus a low-stock baseline of €408/sqm, so it does not screen as cheap. Positives are the habitable condition, 23 photos, fireplace/garage/terrace, but the mountain hamlet setting and no sea/tourism premium keep this only fair at this price.
More on the house and the area
This is a real, usable mountain townhouse in sunny green surroundings, with open hill views from the upper room and terrace areas. The house looks solid and habitable now, with finished floors, kitchen, heating and furnished bedrooms, but much of the interior is dated rather than beautiful. At €75k for 112 sqm, it has genuine lifestyle value and second-home appeal more than knockout wow.
Decoration, tired fittings, a bathroom or a kitchen. The house is liveable as it stands.
Our read of the photos is €200/m². There is no published price band below €350/m², so the range is that figure widened by the spread of the lightest band.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€7,000 – €12,000
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.
- Exterior is plain rather than especially photogenic or historic.
- Interiors are fully usable but quite dated and niche in style.
- Only one bathroom for a 112 sqm two-bedroom house.
- Terrace/outdoor areas look practical more than landscaped or romantic.
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 72/100The Piccole Dolomiti and the Pasubio massif rise directly above the area, with Monte Pasubio and the Sengio Alto group within the local mountain ring. The Leogra valley runs through the comune, and the upper valley is tied to the road and military landscape of the Strada delle 52 Gallerie on Monte Pasubio. Part of the local mountain area falls within the Parco Naturale Regionale della Lessinia to the south-western side of the wider zone. The nearest substantial town is Schio, which has the main services, rail access and a larger historic and industrial centre in the valley. The area is known for First World War mountain sites and for hiking in the Pasubio group.
