Your apartment is situated in the upmarket Prati district, a ten-minute walk from trendy wine bars, luxe boutiques and gourmet restaurants. Reach the hallowed edifices of Vatican City in thirty minutes by foot or ten minutes by taxi. And the towering Castel Sant'Angelo is a twenty-five-minute walk away or thirteen-minute bus ride.
We promise expert-vetted homes, total transparency and exceptional service.
