Central Florence Apartment  

Annigoni 

680 square feet

Charming and romantic artist’s studio on the fifth floor (American designation) of the building adjoining Palazzo Santa Croce. It is also an ancient building but because it doesn't have the historic denomination of the neighboring building, a few more things were done to it, for example, the wonderful skylights in this apartment that fill it with light.

This apartment was once the home and studio of the famous Italian artist Pietro Annigoni.

Elevator to third floor, 19 wooden steps to apartment entrance; be sure you are ready to lug your luggage up one floor.

The comfortable sized bedroom has a queen size bed that can be divided into twins; bathroom with shower. Windows overlooking the Piazza Santa Croce and, in the near distance, Brunelleschi's dome of the cathedral of Florence. Original beams and wooden columns let you know you are in Florence, but the comfortable rattan furniture and flowered fabric of the upholstery has a little bit of a tropical feel.

The living-room and kitchen have a skylight with a translucent shade that can reduce glare. 

In the kitchen area, a fire can be set in the old cooking fireplace. 

Independent heating and central air-conditioning. 

Facilities : Washer/dryer, microwave oven, toaster, American coffee maker, satellite TV, stereo hi-fi, CD and DVD players, telephone, high speed internet answering machine, fax machine, hair dryer, iron and ironing board. Use of Palazzo private Gym.
