Ormelle, vineyards and plain between Oderzo and the Piave

Ormelle is a lowland municipality in the Oderzo area, between Oderzo and the river Piave, in countryside dense with vineyards. This is Piave DOC country and home of Raboso, the local red wine. Treviso is about half an hour away by car, Oderzo a few minutes.

The village has a small centre, hamlets and many houses scattered among the vines, along with workshops and wineries. The market offers detached and terraced houses and old farmhouses, at prices below those in Treviso and around it. If you are buying among the vineyards, consider crop spraying in the warmer months and the distance to services, which in the village cover only the basics.

In 2023 there were 4,543 residents, up 1.8% on 2011. The average age is 44.6, below the province (46.0), households are large at 2.71 people on average, and foreign residents make up 15.3%, a high share linked to work in the vineyards and local factories. Declared incomes are below the Treviso average.

The province of Treviso is one of the most earthquake-prone in northern Italy: 4 municipalities are in zone 1 and 72 in zone 2 of the Civil Protection classification, including Ormelle, where the expected ground acceleration is about 0.159 g. For a brick farmhouse, ask whether any work has been done on walls and floors; for newer houses, ask for the structural design. The other issue is water. The plain between the Piave and the Monticano is crossed by channels and ditches, and the lowest areas can flood in heavy rain. The report checks the official maps for the address.
