What it really costs
Can you move in?
Not before the basics are done
In the listingNeeds renovationSee what needs doing and what each job costs
Although €64,000 equals just €267/m², the property is currently C/2 and requires a not-yet-approved change of use plus major renovation. At an estimated €700/m² renovation cost, effective cost is about €967/m² versus the Veneto farmhouse baseline of €310/m², making it weak despite the large garden.
More on the house and the area
The old brick farmhouse has strong historic character, a largely intact tiled roof, attractive rustic details and a generous enclosed garden. However, the interior is an empty agricultural shell rather than a usable house, so the €64,000 price buys substantial conversion and renovation potential—not a home that can be lived in soon.
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.

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 flat Venetian plain in the province of Padova; land use around it is predominantly arable agriculture with irrigation canals and scattered light-industrial/commercial areas. The Brenta river runs through nearby communes and Piazzola sul Brenta (about 14 km) contains Villa Contarini. Cittadella (about 10 km) is a nearby fortified medieval town with largely intact city walls and is the closest notable historic centre. Other small towns within 15 km include Camposampiero, San Martino di Lupari and Galliera Veneta, which provide local shops and services. Padova lies roughly 18 km to the south and is the nearest city with major rail links, a university and hospital facilities.
