Duomo Terrace Penthouse

Welcome to this stunning 150 sqm penthouse located in Piazza dell'Olio, one of the most elegant, quiet and conveniently located squares in Florence's historic city center, just steps away from Piazza del Duomo, Via de' Tornabuoni and all the city's main landmarks and museums.

The property comfortably accommodates up to six guests and is arranged over two levels, on the fourth and fifth floors of a beautiful historic building equipped with an elevator (compact in size, with a capacity of 3 people), a valuable and highly sought-after feature in the heart of the city. The apartment has been tastefully furnished, combining the charm of historic Florentine architecture – including high ceilings with decorative friezes and frescoed details – with contemporary style, fine materials, original artwork and handcrafted objects. The result is a collection of exceptionally bright interiors, thoughtfully designed to ensure maximum comfort and livability.

The apartment features spacious and functional interiors, primarily arranged on the fourth floor. Here, the heart of the home is a large and welcoming living room with decorated ceilings, a dining area, a faux leather sofa, two comfortable upholstered daybeds and large windows offering direct views of Brunelleschi's Dome.
On the same level, you will also find a separate, fully equipped eat-in kitchen, featuring a modern design, an extendable dining table and every convenience, including a traditional oven, microwave, dishwasher, fridge/freezer, kettle and Nespresso coffee machine (with everything you need for breakfast). The kitchen is also adjacent to a practical separate laundry room equipped with a washer-dryer, iron and ironing board.
The fourth floor is completed by two spacious and very quiet double bedrooms overlooking the inner rooftops. They feature beds measuring 200 cm and 180 cm respectively, both fitted with high-quality hypoallergenic mattresses. There are also two full bathrooms: a smaller one with a shower enclosure and a large, windowed bathroom with both a bathtub and a shower.

An internal staircase leading up from the kitchen takes you to the fifth floor, where you will find a third versatile room featuring a comfortable double sofa bed and a relaxation area with books, games and a Bluetooth sound system. From here, you can access the true highlight of the property: a private 25 sqm panoramic terrace, furnished with a gazebo, dining table, chairs and comfortable lounge armchairs. It offers breathtaking views of the Duomo's Dome, Giotto's Bell Tower, the rooftops of Florence and the surrounding hills.

For a pleasant and worry-free stay, the apartment offers an excellent range of modern technology and comforts, including air conditioning and heating in every room, high-speed Wi-Fi (also available on the terrace), a 43" Ultra HD Smart TV with Netflix, an Xbox 360 console, a safe and outdoor power outlets on the terrace, allowing you to work or relax in the open air.
This exceptional residence is the ideal choice for those seeking a spacious, charming, comfortable and beautifully positioned apartment, complete with spectacular views, from which to enjoy Florence in complete comfort.
