If you’re looking for a city centre home with character, then this penthouse has your name on it. Nestled in the heart of Rome’s historic centre, it truly is unique. Inside you’ll find an eclectic mix of furnishings, antiques, and artwork. But it’s the outside that’s the highlight here. Stepping onto the terrace you’ll discover a homely winter garden – part-covered, part-open – that can be used all year round. Perfectly positioned to catch the sunset, and with views of Janiculum Hill, it’s a real hidden gem. And when you’re ready to explore the capital, you’ll find many must-sees within a thirty-minute stroll, including Piazza Navona, the Trevi Fountain, and the Colosseum.

About Aventino

As one of the city's legendary seven hills, the Aventine plays a central role in the founding mythology of Rome.
