With its contemporary design and minimalist styling, this home is distinctly different to most places in Florence – and we think you’ll love it. Set over two floors and filled with natural light, it feels a little like a gallery, where bright white walls are hung with colourful works of art. Add in a gym, yoga area, and a courtyard (a rare find in Florence), and you have a home that’s one-of-a-kind. It’s away from the hustle and bustle too, in a laid-back residential area where you can easily hop on the tram to reach the historic centre.

Local guide


About Santa Maria Novella

Tucked inside the thirteenth century boulevard that marks out the oldest part of Florence, this neighbourhood is on the western edge of Florence’s historic centre. The Piazza Santa Maria Novella, with its Gothic church and museum, is the centrepiece, and while the area immediately surrounding the train station is fairly gritty, it’s a convenient spot for those just passing through. Though Santa Maria Novella is not directly in the middle...
