Just a stone’s throw from the banks of the River Arno and the beautiful Ponte Vecchio, this stylish apartment puts you in a prime position to explore Florence’s most fascinating historic sights. Siting within Piazza Santo Stefano, you’ve got a wealth of cultural delights right on your front step, not to mention a comfortable and welcoming base from which to explore them all. Inside, wood floors, contemporary furnishings and large windows giving way to piazza views make a striking impression in the main living area. Make yourself at home on the sofa with a glass of Italian wine after a day of exploring or gather around the dining table for a homecooked meal prepared in the marble-topped kitchen. The two bedrooms, meanwhile, are the definition of pared-back chic, and there’s a desk space in one of them should you need to catch up on work. When you’re ready to go out and explore, stroll across Ponte Vecchio – a one-minute walk away – or make a beeline for the famous Duomo, a seven-minute stroll from your door. You’re also a three-minute walk from both the Uffizi Gallery and Piazza della Signoria, while the Strozzi Palace is five minutes away... on foot.
