Explore Florence from this stylish, centrally located ground-floor apartment, based just a few minutes’ walk from the most beautiful monuments and sightseeing spots of the city. This gorgeous dwelling combines traditional design features, such as exposed beams and rustic brickwork, together with modern luxe décor, to create a home that you’ll be itching to return to after long days of exploring. Start each day by cooking up a traditional Italian breakfast of a cappuccino and ricotta pancakes in your fully-equipped kitchen and dine together at your stylish dining table, before heading out to explore all the sights of the city.
