Elegance meets comfort in this bright apartment located just across from Florence’s historic Ponte Vecchio. From its parquet flooring to its detailed wall panelling and contemporary furnishings, this home oozes subtle sophistication at every turn. Snuggle up on the sofa with a glass of Italian wine after a day of sightseeing or gather around the smart dining table for a celebratory feast cooked up in the sleek kitchen. We love the luxurious marble-clad bathrooms with their rainfall showers and the pared-back simplicity of the comfortable bedrooms. You’ve also got access to a communal rooftop terrace with awe-worthy views of the Florence Duomo and the Palazzo Vecchio Tower – the ideal spot to retreat to in the evening for an aperitivo. Outside of your home, the Pitti Palace is a four-minute walk away, the Duomo is walkable in nine and the beautiful Boboli Gardens are a twenty-minute stroll from your door. With your host able to organise plenty of fun activities – from boat trips on the Arno to wine and food tastings as well as truffle hunting and hot air balloon rides – you’ve got everything you need for a magical, memorable stay.
