Welcome

Welcome to the heart of Florence. Experience living in a true palace and walking to all the sights in this city treasured for its art. This apartment is especially large and luminous with comfortable and gracious living room with a view of the Duomo that you will remember for a lifetime.

If you are a larger party, there are several vacation rental apartments within this same building.

The location is excellent, right on Piazza Antinori. There is bound to be some traffic noise in this bustling district, but your 5th floor location will mitigate that. And, after all, you are in a city. This also means that there is a shop for each and everything you need or want in the neighborhood. This quarter of Florence has been home to important Florentine families since the mid 1600s.

Exterior

The building has retained a clean and simple aspect that is reminiscent of the Renaissance period when it was first built. Renovated over the centuries, the building acquired its present appearance in the mid 1700s. The building has a doorman during business hours.

Interior Description

The entry hall opens into the dining room and then an open Tuscan brick archway leads into the living room that is beatifully decorated with rust and gold on a foundation of green. There are two sofas and four armchairs, so room for all guests and company. Over the largest sofa is a pretty trompe l'oiel Tuscan landscape. Guests can't wait to enjoy the large (270 square feet) terrace where you can enjoy eating al fresco a joy of Italy. The view is of adjoining buildings. There is an awning that can be cranked out to shade warm days.
