Tucked inside a historic Roman building in the elegant Prati neighbourhood, this apartment pairs curated artwork and designer furnishings with the hush of a quiet internal courtyard – a welcome contrast to the city's bustle outside. The living spaces have a gallery-like feel without feeling cold, and the dining area is well suited to long evenings in after a day of sightseeing. St Peter's Basilica and the Vatican Museums are a twenty-minute walk, Ponte Sant'Angelo a thirteen-minute stroll, and Castel Sant'Angelo around fourteen minutes away – meaning Rome's most compelling corners are all reachable on foot.

Once a verdant area of meadows, vegetable gardens and vineyards,...
