About this property

Welcome to your Florentine retreat, a bright and spacious apartment set in the heart of the historic Santa Croce district. Just moments from Piazza della Signoria and Brunelleschi’s Dome, this beautifully designed space offers an authentic city experience with all the comforts of home. Soaring ceilings and generous living areas create an open, welcoming atmosphere, while carefully chosen furnishings add warmth and character. Whether you're sipping coffee in the sun-filled kitchen or unwinding in the elegant mezzanine bedroom, every corner invites relaxation.

Perfect for families or small groups, the apartment comfortably sleeps six across two bedrooms, including a peaceful ensuite with a bathtub. The fully equipped kitchen makes dining in a pleasure, and the fourth-floor setting (with lift) ensures quiet above the city bustle. With Wi-Fi, air conditioning, and thoughtful touches throughout, this is an ideal base for exploring Florence’s timeless charm on foot—from the Ponte Vecchio to hidden trattorias around every corner.

Step outside and find yourself in the heart of Florence’s Santa Croce district—a lively and historic neighbourhood where every street echoes with the city’s Renaissance past. Here, artisan workshops, hidden piazzas and centuries-old churches create an atmosphere that feels both timeless and distinctly local. The area is known for its creative energy, with galleries, independent boutiques and traditional trattorias tucked behind ancient stone facades. Santa Croce is also home to its namesake basilica, the resting place of icons like Michelangelo and Galileo.

From this central location, Florence’s most celebrated landmarks are just a short stroll away. Wander to the iconic Ponte Vecchio, pause beneath the grandeur of the Duomo or spend a slow afternoon at the Uffizi. Despite its proximity to major attractions, the neighbourhood retains a residential charm that offers a glimpse into daily Florentine life—making it the perfect base for travellers who want to experience the city with depth and ease.
