Bevilacqua, a castle village in the lowlands of Verona

The castle that gives the village its name is the landmark of Bevilacqua, a small municipality in the lowlands south-east of Verona, towards the province of Padua. Around it are flat fields, drainage channels, scattered farmhouses and a small centre with a school, a pharmacy and the basic services. The land is level and only just above sea level.

Life here revolves around farming and the larger towns of the area, where work, shops and secondary schools are found. A car is close to essential: the data show 1 public transport stop. Buyers mostly find detached houses with land and some recent small villas.

There were 1,790 residents in 2023, almost unchanged since 2011 (up 0.2%). The average age is 45.0, below 45.6 for the province of Verona, over-65s are 21.7% and households have 2.47 members on average. Foreign residents account for 11.5%.

Bevilacqua is in seismic zone 3, like 42 other municipalities in the province, with an expected ground acceleration of 0.083 g in the built-up area. For a country house on the plain, the state of the foundations and walls deserves the closest look, partly because of rising damp from the ground.

With channels and low-lying fields all around, the thing to check before buying is water. The report for an address reads the official flood maps and finds the plot on the cadastral maps of the Revenue Agency (Agenzia delle Entrate).

Even in zone 3, seismic standards apply to new buildings: for an older building, ask about the design year and any structural work.
