What it really costs

Condition not stated in the listingSee what needs doing and what each job costs
Listing price €279,000 (€930/m²); assuming the house is only habitable I estimate ~€200/m² (~€60k) in works, giving an effective ~€1,130/m² versus the regional median of €486/m² — substantially above local market, so overpriced.
More on the house and the area
Solid, well-built brick villa with mature trees, private garden and a 30 m² garage; interiors show handsome marble floors, a classic fireplace and large, bright rooms so the house is immediately liveable. Layout and condition are good but the decor is dated and the outdoor area needs some maintenance — an easy upgrade to make this a very attractive family home.
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€20,000 – €34,000
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 finishes — mostly cosmetic updating required
- Garden needs TLC and clearing
- Peripheral location a few km from town centre
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 38/100The area is the flat alluvial plain east of Verona, with the Adige running nearby and intensively farmed land around the settlements. Verona is the nearest city of size and has the full range of services, rail connections, a major historic centre and UNESCO status. The Lessini Mountains are north of the plain but outside the immediate landscape of the cluster.
