This is a judicial auction for a fatiscente building; estimated full renovation €1,100/m² → renovation ≈ €308,000 so effective price ≈ €327,500 (≈€1,170/m²) vs Veneto baseline €406/m². Listing uses non‑real illustrative photos and omits condition/year/energy data, so buy only through the auction process.
More on the house and the area
Photos show attractive, modern interior finishes and the plot includes a large exclusive area (about 1,090 sqm), but the official description states the residence is in a dilapidated condition. This is a clear renovation/rebuild project — a strong bargain for a full renovation but not a move-in home.
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€111,000 – €164,000
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.
- Listing text says the building is in stato fatiscente / precario — significant structural and renovation work likely required.
- Property is sold at auction (legal/possession risks and extra costs).
- Advert notes the photos are indicative and may not show the actual state of this property.
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 cluster lies on the southern Venetian plain between the Bacchiglione and Brenta water systems, in flat reclaimed farmland with drainage canals and lagoon-edge wetlands. The Venetian Lagoon is nearby, and the southern lagoon landscape around Chioggia and the mouths of the Brenta and Adige shapes the area more than any hill or mountain. The nearest town of size is Chioggia, which has a historic centre, fishing port and daily services; Padova is the main larger city for higher-order services. The area is known for market gardening, reclaimed agricultural land and the lagoon-fishing environment.
