Asking €99,500 for 60 m² plus an estimated €700/m² renovation gives an effective price of €141,500 (~€2,358/m²), well above the regional median of €312/m², so the property is overpriced. The listing does not state the building condition or year (it only says “spazi da personalizzare”), so I used a €700/m² renovation estimate; photos are present (21).
More on the house and the area
Authentic stone farmhouse bones with a new-looking roof, a small terrace and expansive mountain/valley views — very photogenic setting. However the interior is a rough, partially-built shell so this is a renovation project rather than a move-in home. With investment it could become a lovely, compact mountain retreat.
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€12,000 – €21,000
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.
- Interior is largely unfinished (raw brick walls, screed floors, no kitchen or bathroom fitted).
- Property sits directly onto a narrow road so privacy and access are limited; on-site parking is minimal.
- Will require a full internal fit‑out and possible permits for new windows/doors and finishes.
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 is in the Adige valley with the Monte Baldo range close to the east and the Lessinia hills to the south-east. The Adige river runs through this stretch of valley. The area is part of the Valdadige between Verona and Trento, with vineyards and terraced slopes around the settlements. Rivoli Veronese and Caprino Veronese nearby have small historic centres and everyday services, while Verona is the nearest major city with full rail, hospital and airport services. Lake Garda is just outside the 15 km radius and matters for access patterns, but not for the immediate landscape. The area is known for wine production, especially the Valpolicella and Terra dei Forti zone on the Veronese side of the valley.
