How about a historic apartment in Florence’s trendy Oltrarno district, complete with a private rooftop terrace for your next getaway? Fringing the River Arno’s left bank, you’re set back from the tourist bustle here while still within walking distance of San Frediano’s gates and the city’s must-see sights. Perfect for friends or couples, the three bedrooms are set apart across two floors, each with its own bathroom for added privacy. Do note, the apartment is on the third and top floor with no lift, so you’ll need to climb some stairs. But the reward? Sweeping panoramic views over Florence that make every step worthwhile.
