Looking for a Florentine home that delivers on both charm and location? How does this former Renaissance palazzo, complete with Duomo views, sound? Inside and out, it’s brimming with character, yet it’s surprisingly practical too. The living room features a sofa bed for a more flexible sleeping set-up if you need it. While the well-equipped kitchen and dining area, complete with its original inglenook fireplace and hand-chiselled sink, would make any Nonna proud. When you’re ready to explore, you’re within walking distance of Florence’s major hotspots. There’s even a gelateria right outside your door to kick off proceedings and fuel a day of sightseeing.
