See what needs doing and what each job costs
The property is described as 'magazzino' (storage) so it may not be legally habitable without a formal change of use. At €25,000 plus an estimated €700/m² renovation (~€165,200) the effective cost is ≈€190,200 (≈€806/m²), well above the regional baseline of €312/m², so this is treated as a storage/conversion risk.
More on the house and the area
Solid, three‑storey rustico with attractive exposed stone walls, a high tiled roof and a photogenic internal volume — good bones and strong potential. Reality check: it’s a storage shell that needs full renovation and municipal approvals before it can be lived in.
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€47,000 – €83,000
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 63/100The area sits in the Belluno Prealps, with low mountain ridges and narrow valleys around the lower Piave basin. The Piave river runs nearby and shapes the settled valley floor. This is the edge of the Prosecco hills around Valdobbiadene and Quero, a landscape of vineyard slopes and small villages. Feltre is the nearest larger town, with a walled historic centre and rail and road services; Belluno and Montebelluna are also practical service centres. The nearest ski areas are on Monte Avena above Feltre, roughly half an hour by road, with larger Dolomite resorts much farther away and not part of the immediate landscape. The area is known for foothill farming, vineyards and the Piave valley routes between the plain and the mountains.
