Asking €230,000 (1,278€/m²) in Padova vs local median ~403€/m² — well above market; the description doesn’t claim a recent renovation while photos exist (25), so the high price looks unsupported.
More on the house and the area
Well-preserved, solid 1960s townhouse interior (terrazzo floors, original banister and textured glass panels) that feels immediately usable but stylistically dated. Independent entrance and private outdoor space make it a practical family home that rewards modernization rather than full structural renovation.
Decoration, tired fittings, a bathroom or a kitchen. The house is liveable as it stands.
Our read of the photos is €200/m². There is no published price band below €350/m², so the range is that figure widened by the spread of the lightest band.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€12,000 – €20,000
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.
- Dated 1960s interior — needs cosmetic updating and modern kitchens/bathroom.
- Only one bathroom for a 3‑bed layout.
- Three-level house with internal stairs (not ideal for limited mobility).
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 55/100This is in the built-up area of Padova, on the central Veneto plain crossed by the Bacchiglione and close to the Brenta system. The nearest larger natural feature is the Euganean Hills regional park southwest of the city, but it lies outside the immediate urban surroundings. Padova itself is a major provincial capital with a large historic centre, the Basilica of Saint Anthony, the Scrovegni Chapel and the university. The city has UNESCO status for the fourteenth-century fresco cycles. The area is known for its dense urban fabric, canals and rivers, and for being part of the settled plain between Venice and Vicenza.
