What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €42,000 (€210/m²), this 200 m² farmhouse is completely to restore; estimated renovation brings the effective cost to about €262,000 (€1,310/m²), far above the Veneto baseline of €310/m². The independent setting, views, garden and partly buildable land add value, but not enough to offset the very heavy renovation burden.
More on the house and the area
This independent stone farmhouse has strong visual appeal: traditional rural character, lush land, and an attractive view toward the Little Dolomites. However, it is clearly an agricultural-style shell rather than a livable home, with deteriorated outbuildings and no evidence of finished interiors. At €42,000 it is an appealing restoration opportunity, but not yet a dream home you could realistically move into.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Our read of the photos, €1,100/m², falls in this band.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€79,000 – €117,000
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.
- Full renovation project, explicitly described as a rustico da ristrutturare.
- Photos show no finished living interiors, kitchen, or usable bathrooms; structural and roof condition need professional checking.
- Rural access and availability of utilities are unclear.
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 74/100The Piccole Dolomiti rise immediately above Recoaro, with the Carega group and the ridge of the Tre Croci and Campogrosso within the local mountain basin. The Agno valley runs through the area. The Parco Naturale Regionale della Lessinia begins just to the south-west on the high plateau side. The nearest ski area is Recoaro Mille, reached in about 15 minutes by road, with larger lifts at San Giorgio in Lessinia farther away. Valdagno is the nearest town of size, with the main services and industry of the valley. The area is known for mountain walking and for the historic spa of Recoaro.
