See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €95,000 (€413/m²), the completely renovation-dependent 230 m² farmhouse likely needs about €230,000 in works, bringing the effective cost near €1,413/m² versus €310/m² for comparable local stock. The private garden and redevelopment flexibility add value, but the listing does not say how many bathrooms are possible or provide energy and construction details.
More on the house and the area
This Veneto farmhouse has genuine historic appeal, with old stone walls, terracotta roofs and a substantial private garden. However, it is explicitly a complete renovation project, with roof damage and no bathrooms or usable interiors shown, so it is a promising conversion rather than a home someone could realistically live in today.
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, €1,000/m², falls in this band.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€46,000 – €81,000
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.

- Complete renovation required; the photos show overgrown areas, damaged roof sections and partially collapsed structures.
- No bathrooms or usable interior spaces are shown, so it is not currently a livable home.
- Renovation, structural, utility and permitting costs could be substantial despite the low price per square metre.
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.
