See what needs doing and what each job costs
Although marketed as renovated at €365/m², the property currently lacks agibilità, one apartment has no boiler or utility connections, and further insulation and municipal work are required. Estimated completion costs bring the effective price to roughly €765/m², well above the €353/m² local benchmark.
More on the house and the area
This is a large, structurally complete two-apartment house with tiled floors, intact bathrooms, heating upstairs, and garage space. However, it has little visible charm or setting appeal, and the ground floor still lacks key utilities while the property is burdened by habitability and bureaucratic issues. It feels more like a practical renovation project than a dream Italian 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.
Our read of the photos, €400/m², falls in this band.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€25,000 – €43,000
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.
- Ground-floor unit lacks a boiler and connections to electricity and gas, with costs transferred to the buyer.
- No certificate of habitability; approval depends on exterior insulation work and completion of municipal procedures.
- Located directly on a fairly busy road with little private outdoor space.
- Interiors are functional but plain, cluttered, and not presented as move-in ready.
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 38/100The area is in the southern Padova plain near the Adige, with flat farmland, drainage canals and scattered villages. Monselice and Este are the nearest historic towns of note, both with walled and castle areas, but they are outside the immediate 15 km landscape. The Euganean Hills also lie beyond that radius and matter more for occasional outings than for the setting around the houses. This part of the lower Veneto plain is known for agriculture.
