Listed at €40,000 (≈€205/m2) but described as a 'rustico da trasformare', so I assume heavy restoration (~€1,100/m2) which gives an effective cost of ≈€1,305/m2. That is far above the local median €312/m2; the listing omits condition, bathroom and energy-class details, so budget and scope risk are significant.
More on the house and the area
Warm, characterful interiors with original beams, pebble floors and a solid rustic feel make this an appealing country home. The house appears structurally present with usable rooms, a good private garden and outbuildings, but it’s a renovation project (no bathroom shown and some barns need repair) — great value for someone prepared to restore.
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€77,000 – €114,000
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.
- Advertised as a 'rustico da trasformare' — renovation required (no bathroom shown).
- Outbuildings: one structure is partially collapsed/needs rebuilding or major repair.
- Very likely needs full modern systems (electrical, plumbing, heating) installed or upgraded.
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 43/100The area lies on the flat Venetian plain between Treviso and Castelfranco Veneto, with a landscape of fields, drainage canals, tree lines and scattered farmhouses. The Sile river system is nearby, and the Parco Naturale Regionale del Fiume Sile begins closer to the Quinto di Treviso and Treviso side. Treviso is the nearest substantial town, with a walled historic centre, canals and full everyday services. The area is known for agriculture on the upper Venetian plain and for the dense network of waterways that run toward the lagoon.
