A Private Villa In The Heart Of Italy's Motor Valley — Montale Rangone, Modena

A PRIVATE VILLA IN THE HEART OF ITALY’S MOTOR VALLEY — MONTALE RANGONE, MODENA

Independent villa | Approx. 3 bedrooms | Double garage | Mature private grounds | Expansion potential for pool & tennis court

Set behind a screen of century-old cedars and pines in the quiet countryside of Montale Rangone, just minutes from Modena, this independent villa offers the rare combination of privacy, space, and proximity to some of the most iconic names in Italian craftsmanship — Ferrari, Maserati, and Lamborghini all have their historic homes within a short drive.

This is genuine Emilian living: a region celebrated worldwide for Parmigiano Reggiano, traditional Balsamic Vinegar, and a slower, more authentic pace of life — yet only 15–20 minutes from Modena’s city center, the Bologna high-speed rail station, and Bologna International Airport, with Milan reachable in just over an hour.

THE PROPERTY

The villa opens into a generous double-height living and dining area, where exposed brick columns, a sweeping wooden staircase, and gleaming polished marble floors set a warm, traditional Italian tone. Large windows on every side bathe the rooms in natural light and frame views of the surrounding garden. The layout flows naturally between an elegant sitting room, a formal dining room — ideal for entertaining — and a separate kitchen, with three bedrooms arranged across two levels offering comfortable, well-zoned family living.

Outside, a deep, arcaded brick loggia wraps around the house, creating a true Italian outdoor living room — shaded, covered, and perfect for al fresco dining through the long Emilian summers. Mature evergreens, lawns, and a paved courtyard surround the home, offering both privacy from the road and a blank canvas for further outdoor development.

ROOM TO DREAM: POOL, TENNIS COURT & MORE

The generous plot — extending well beyond the footprint of the house — leaves substantial buildable and landscapable surface area still untouched. For buyers envisioning the quintessential Italian estate lifestyle, the grounds comfortably accommodate the addition of a swimming pool and a private tennis court, subject to the usual local permitting, transforming this already spacious property into a true resort-style residence for family and guests.

LOCATION: WHERE FERRARI COUNTRY MEETS COUNTRY LIVING

Ferrari Headquarters & Museum, Maranello — approx. 15 minutes by car, home of the legendary Scuderia and a pilgrimage site for automotive enthusiasts worldwide
Modena Golf & Country Club, Casinalbo — just a few minutes away, an 18-hole championship course designed by Bernhard Langer and Jim Engh
Historic Modena — Romanesque Duomo (UNESCO World Heritage), Piazza Grande, and the Pavarotti legacy, a short drive away
Bologna Guglielmo Marconi Airport — approx. 45 minutes
Milan — approx. 1 hour 15 minutes by car or high-speed train from Modena/Bologna

This is a part of Italy where Lamborghini, Maserati, Pagani, and Ferrari were all born — a destination as well known to car collectors as it is to lovers of fine food, wine, and balsamic vinegar.

STYLE & CHARACTER

The villa reflects a timeless Italian residential style of the late 20th century: terracotta roof tiles, soft ochre-yellow stucco façades, and rustic brick archways recall the architecture of the surrounding Emilian countryside, while the bright, traditionally furnished interiors — parquet and marble floors, antique mirrors, gilt-framed artwork, and classic Italian furniture — give the home an established, lived-in elegance ready for a new family to make it their own.
