Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Home of an architect, Alberata Selva has been meticulously designed to a coherent theme, and anything that doesn’t fit has been jettisoned. It’s the sort of obsession we understand.

About Pitti
Unsurprisingly, Pitti stretches from the Palazzo Pitti – a Renaissance palace housing a vast European art collection – up to the river. Historically a working-class neighbourhood, today it’s full of boutique and artisan shops, leftovers from the tradesmen who used to inhabit the streets. This area is less busy and touristy than the northern districts, but those in the know still come to the Boboli Garden and Belvedere Fort for...
