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.

This apartment was perfect. I stayed here with my sister and mother. It is a beautiful apartment with charm and comfort. It was spacious with 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths, and full modern kitchen. The sun/eating room was lovely each morning. We also loved the neighborhood where we were walking distance to all major sites, but removed just enough that we didn't have to be in the center of tourist traffic. Lovely restaurants nearby. Also, Christina was a lovely host. She provided us with all the important information that we needed which made our stay easy.

We were very comfortable in Christina’s place. She was warm and welcoming when we arrived and took the time to show us how everything worked. My family enjoyed the patio area and had a place to park a car if needed. We did not have a car but were able to walk everywhere we wanted to see; perfect place for location. Another bonus was no stairs!! I would recommend!

This apartment is extremely well situated with walking access to all the attractions despite being in a quiet area of the city. It set up allows this apartment to accomodate a famly of adults comfortably with 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. It is well stocked (unlike some apartments that only have enough for a couple of people) with kitchen accessories and clean towels for everyone. It was easy to access the host who responded to requests in a timely fashion. We are hoping to stay in this apartment again if we return to Florence.

Wonderful visit to Florence!

We had a great stay! Christina is a terrific hostess who met us at the property and was responsive throughout our visit, including a recommendation for a wine tour in Tuscany. An easy walk to nearby groceries and an open air market plus a well equipped kitchen made meal prep a breeze. and the apartment is a 10-15 minute walk to many Florence attractions. Highly recommended!

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.

This is an ideal place to stay in Florence. Cristina was a helpful and responsive owner. The location near the St. Ambrogio market was perfect with daily vendors available and good restaurants nearby. The place is quite quiet given that it fronts on a street with a flow of automobiles.Having the open space in the back with a table and chairs is a nice option (it is billed as a garden, but it more of a patio and a place to park a car, which could be a great advantage given parking rules in Florence). The one caveat was that the bathroom in the front bedroom needed to have a better bathmat and a grab bar. One of our guests slipped in the bathtub while showering and hurt her knee. Cristina told us she was installing some safety features, so you might want to check on that. All in all, an ideal place to stay enough away from the tourist areas to be quiet but close enough to walk there in 10 or 15 minutes.

Fantastic property

Christina met us upon arrival and explained everything completely. The property was as described and wonderful for a family of 5 guests. Location was great and easy to find and we walked everywhere, except to the Airport. She left a booklet with lots of helpful info on things to do and where to eat, etc.I have stayed in Florence a dozen times always in Hotels and this was a real treat. Thank you Christina for being a wonderful Host, Jim
