About this property

At the Heart of Florence with Private Garden and Parking

This charming and unique apartment sets on the ground floor of a historic building right at Florence's Historic Center. It is strategically situated just 5 minutes walk from Piazza Santa Croce, and 15 minutes walk from Piazza Signoria and The Ufizzi.

This accommodation has been restored (last renovation on november 2016) and converted into an adorable apartment, very well furnished and with modern facilities. The highlight is its private, sunny garden with dining table for 'al fresco' meals. Private parking is also available.

There is a cosy living room , dining room at a veranda facing the garden, well equipped kitchen with everything you need to cook a delicious Tuscan meal, a master double room with fresco ceiling with in suite bathroom, a double bedroom with 2 single beds, a studio with 2 single beds plus one bathroom with shower. All bathrooms are made with Carrara marble.

The market of Santo Ambrogio , the most characteristic food market in Florence is only at 5 minutes walk. It is a nice way to wake up in the morning, have a lazy breakfast with a true cappuccino or espresso and take a tour around fresh and exquisite season vegetables and fruits or local cheese just smelling the flower's newest aromas.

All around, there are many restaurants and bars where local Fiorentini go for a quick coffee, lunch and dinner meals, with a vast selection of places running from wine bars, wooden oven pizzerias, local trattorie and famous restaurants.

From there, you can also rent bikes to visit Florence everywhere you want to go!

The famous FLEA MARKET of Florence is located in Piazza dei Ciompi at only 10 minutes walk from the apartment. It opens every day from 9 to 19.30. If you're lucky enough to go there on the last Sunday of every month, the stalls extend into the surrounding streets. Here you can find furniture and objects from the past, prints, coins and jewellery. It's worth a trip if only to get insights on Italy's past through the artifacts displayed in these cluttered stalls.


I live close by and available 24/7.

And what a kitchen!!!
We loved the very personal apartment near Sant Ambrogio with its restaurants, cafes and various stores. Especially for those, who love cooking..., you'll be surprised to find a very well equipped and suitable kitchen. In a classic sense. And as there's the famous dayly market with a vast variety of best and fresh italian products - only 3 minutes from the apartment - cooking pleasure for you and your family or friens is guaranteed. We loved it: early in the morning to the market, then exploring Florence all day, then dinner- delight "at home" in the evening. Lookin' foreword to another stay in Florence.

Great location but noisy
Lovely home in a safe and convenient location. Close to great restaurants, attractions, and bus stop. It is less than 30min walk to the train station, which is important as it is difficult to reserve or stop a taxi. The rooms are very spacious and comfortable. Took off one star for the following reasons: 1) There was some smell like wet carpet in the home, although there was no carpet in the home. 2) The road noise and the noise from the building door opening and closing was really loud. If you are light sleeper this can be an issue and cannot be avoided as the apartment is on the ground floor.

A Wonderful Home to Stay
Christina was very friendly and helpful to give us a tour of the apartment when we arrived. (She made sure we knew how to get into the doors, etc). We had Christina's contact info, but we didn't need any more assistance. My friends and I were very comfortable during our stay. It was nice for all of us to sit at the table outside in the early evening. It felt like a friend's home instead of a sterile rental property. It was easy to take a bus from the train station. It was a convenient location to the places we wanted to go. The pizza was great at Le Carceri on the next street over.

Beautiful property in a perfect location
Christina's house is beautiful and well furnished. We stayed there a week with 4 adults and 2 young kids.The backyard/parking was perfect to have a late diner after putting the kids to sleep. The location is great, it's a walking distance of most of the attraction. Only downside with the house is the wifi, it was unusable for most of our stay.
