Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
In it’s former life, this apartment was the home of a Roman painter. And while it has since been restored into a contemporary sanctuary, you can still see evidence of its artistic history. Up in the turret there is a study with impressive views across the city. The bedrooms make it easy to switch off and unwind, while the terraces provide the perfect spot for drinks and alfresco dining. Your host can arrange sweet extras like breakfast delivery or a welcome basket. Plus, it’s in a great location. From here you can walk to the nearest market and it’s possible to reach the Vatican in just twenty-minutes.
