This is a judicial auction (Tribunale di Padova) for a dilapidated rural complex with 1,910 m² of covered/uncovered area and a price of €61,312; the buildings are described as collabenti/pessime condizioni and not immediately habitable, so expect full restoration costs (~€1,100/m²) and legal/auction risks.
More on the house and the area
Staged photos show bright, modern interiors, and the lot includes a large agricultural plot — an appealing combo on paper. However the property is described as a collabente rural farmhouse and is not move-in ready: this is a full rebuild/reno project, priced for a buyer willing to take on major work and auction procedures.
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€756,000 – €1,117,000
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.
- The legal description states the farmhouse is 'abitazione collabente' (collapsing) and in very poor condition — currently uninhabitable.
- Photos in the listing are illustrative/stock and do not represent the real state of the building.
- Extensive rebuilding/complete renovation and likely reconnection of utilities will be required.
- Sale is by auction — expect legal/technical complexity and additional costs.
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 52/100The cluster lies in the southern Venetian plain between the Brenta-Adige lowlands and the Lagoon of Venice, with flat reclaimed farmland, canals and embankments as the immediate landscape. The southern lagoon and the channels around Chioggia are within about 15 km, and the beaches and seafront at Sottomarina are also in that range. Chioggia is the nearest town of size, with a working historic centre, fishing port and daily services. This part of the area is known for market gardening, fishing and lagoon environments tied to the wider Venetian lagoon system.
