Set on a charming Medieval street that overlooks piazza Brunelleschi, this traditional Florence apartment boasts bags of character and charm. So much so, that upon arrival you'll instantly feel that this home's walls have a story to tell. The same can be said for the local area of Duomo's vibrant streets – brimming with cultural and historical sights, luxury boutiques, quintessentially Italian cafes and oh-so dreamy patisserie shops. Just steps away from the Santa Maria del Fiore cathedral – take in magnificent views of this monument from the comfort of your own private balcony with views over the rooftops of Florence. Spend relaxing late afternoons sipping Italian wine, before watching the beautiful sunset colour the sky pink and orange as evening draws. And while the sun terrace is arguably one of the best highlights of this home, you'll find just as much character throughout the interiors of the living space too. Here, exposed wooden beams, mismatched dining chairs and traditional Tuscan-style ornaments set the scene for a truly authentic stay in Florence.

Home truths

  • The apartment is on the fifth floor, without a lift, so you'll have to climb eighty-six steps

  • The host asks you to respect quiet hours between 10 pm and 8 am

  • Though there isn't a dedicated desk here, the dining table doubles up as a laptop-friendly workspace

  • This home is in a central spot, so noise is to be expected – light sleepers may want to pack earplugs

  • The entrance to this home is shared with the building's other residents

  • Parking in Florence can be tricky, so we recommend sticking to the easily accessible public transport where possible – though we think the best way to see the city is on foot

  • If you're travelling by plane, Florence Airport is the nearest airport – it's a thirty-minute drive from this home
