“A. P. M. Petrus Leopoldus Magnus Dux Etruriae…” This Latin inscription commemorates the visit of Grand Duke Pietro Leopoldo of Tuscany, who on September 5, 1768, stopped at this residence during his tour of the new Modenese road, having lunch at the historic Begliomini family home in the village of Piastre. Today, this extraordinary property retains the charm of its origins: an ancient “Leopoldina” residence that once served as a post station for caravans and travelers along the historic Modenese State Road. A building of rare appeal, rich in historical, architectural, and cultural value. The villa spans three above-ground levels, plus a large habitable attic, distinguished by elegance, spaciousness, and authentic finishes. The ground floor houses the most prestigious unit: a finely restored apartment enhanced with high-quality materials and refined interiors. It features five large rooms plus services and amenities, perfectly balancing historic atmosphere with contemporary comfort. The first and second floors, connected by a private staircase, contain additional residential units each composed of four rooms with services and amenities, all well maintained. Completing the property is a spacious, usable attic, ideal for future residential conversion or creating exclusive spaces with a unique character. Adjacent to the main building are two more apartments, also spread over the first and second floors, each with four rooms plus services, accessible via the communal staircase. The residence is framed by a large front garden overlooking the historic state road: an elegant and private green space that further enhances the prestige of the entire complex. A representative, authentic, and timeless home, ideal for those wishing to live in or invest in a property rich in history, charm, and potential.
