In the heart of the enchanting medieval village of Fosdinovo, nestled between the Mediterranean Sea and the rolling Tuscan hills, this extraordinary 17th-century residence invites you into a world of history, charm, and timeless beauty. Once the home of the noble Bianchi D’Erberia family—lords of the nearby Malaspina Castle—this remarkable stone property is a rare testament to centuries past. Today, it awaits a visionary restoration to bring it back to life and transform it into something truly exceptional. Spanning approximately 430 sqm across three levels (360 sqm habitable), the residence retains a wealth of original features: exquisite encaustic tile floors, exposed wooden beams, elegant vaulted ceilings, and an antique cooktop that evokes the atmosphere of a bygone era. Each space tells a story, filled with character and authenticity. The interiors are generous and light-filled, offering endless possibilities to reimagine the layout and create a bespoke living experience. The ground floor welcomes you with an entrance hall, three charming vaulted cellars, and a woodshed—perfect for creating atmospheric ancillary spaces. On the first floor, a series of living areas unfolds: a living room, sitting room, kitchen, three bedrooms, a study, bathroom, and storage room, complemented by a small balcony and a terrace. The second floor offers further potential, with a grand hall, living room, a character-filled kitchen with fireplace and traditional charcoal cooktop, three bedrooms, a bathroom, and an additional terrace. The terraces are truly captivating: one opens toward the shimmering sea, the other toward the majestic mountains, both offering breathtaking panoramic views, including the iconic Malaspina Castle. This is more than a property—it is a rare opportunity to create a unique private residence or an exclusive hospitality retreat, just 14 km from the coast. A timeless place, rich in history and soul, ready to be reawakened and transformed into something extraordinary.

What is the Energy Efficiency Rating?
The energy efficiency rating is a value expressed by letters ranging from A4 to G which indicates the energy quality and consumption of the building based on parameters such as the shape and climate zone in which it is located. The better the energy efficiency rating, the lower the energy consumption and cost of air-conditioning the building. Please note: buildings belonging to the same class can also have very different energy consumptions if the shape and climate zone are different.
What is the EPgl (Global Energy Performance index)?
The EPgl indicates how much energy is consumed so that the building or the building unit reaches comfort conditions, and is based on the energy services present and according to the type of property under standard use. The unit of measurement is kWh/m2 per year.
