At €30,000, estimated renovation brings the effective cost to about €65,000, or €1,300/m²—over four times the €310/m² local comparison level. The description repeatedly presents it as a deposito or service space and does not clearly confirm residential eligibility, while the property is also a substantial renovation project.
More on the house and the area
The old shutters, farmhouse form, tiled kitchen wall, and terrazzo floors give it some authentic rural character. However, the interiors are damp-stained, unfinished, and cluttered, with a very basic bathroom and no convincing evidence of current livability. The renovated roof is a useful starting point, but this is better understood as a low-cost restoration or storage project than a dream 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€10,000 – €18,000
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.

- This is a substantial renovation project rather than a move-in home, despite having a roof and existing floors.
- Gas and sewer connections still need to be completed; the bathroom and interior finishes appear poor and potentially non-compliant.
- No notable view, garden, or distinctive setting is shown.
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 68/100The cluster sits on the southern edge of the Venetian Prealps foothills where low wooded and cultivated hills (the Asolo/Asolane hill area) meet the Treviso plain. The hill town of Asolo and its historic centre and villas lie within the local hills. The nearest town of size is Montebelluna, which provides a regional rail station, commercial services and a local concentration of sports-footwear and outdoor-equipment manufacturers. Vineyards and wine production (the wider Conegliano‑Valdobbiadene Prosecco area lies in this part of the province) are an important land use in the surrounding hills. There are no major lakes or coastal shoreline within a 15 km radius and no ski lifts in the immediate area; ski areas in the higher Prealps and Dolomites lie beyond the local hill zone. The landscape within 15 km is a mix of agricultural plain, small industrial/commercial towns and low hills with vineyards and woodland patches.
