See what needs doing and what each job costs
The €40,000 asking price looks low at €167/m², but a 240 m² early-1900s house needing renovation implies roughly €168,000 in works, bringing the effective cost to about €867/m² versus a local reference of €403/m². Its proximity to Lake Corlo is a modest positive, but the listing has remained on the market for 454 days.
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€48,000 – €84,000
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.

The area around
Location score 76/100The cluster is in the eastern foothills of the Lagorai and near the first ridges of the Belluno Dolomites, with a basin of wooded slopes and narrow valleys around Arsiè. Lake Corlo lies at Arsiè itself, formed by the Cismon, and the Cismon valley is the main landscape axis here. The Belluno Dolomites National Park begins a short distance to the east around the Feltre side of the mountains, while the area also sits close to the edge of the Tesino and Valsugana uplands. The nearest larger town is Feltre, which has a walled historic centre, services and rail connections. The area is known for its lake-and-mountain setting on the old route between Feltre and Trento.
