Packed with traditional features – from frescoed ceilings to parquet floor – this apartment is as inviting as it looks. The living space feels warm and comfortable, with its antique furniture and a sofa bed, while the kitchen is contemporary and kitted out with all the necessities. Outside, a terrace is perfect for breakfast, lunch, and dinner under the stars – or just a glass of wine or two before trying out the local eateries. If sightseeing tickles your fancy, the Galleria dell'Accademia is a ten-minute stroll away, and the Duomo is walkable in fifteen.
