Luxury Apartment in Florence "TERRAZZA DE' MEDICI"

DETAILED DESCRIPTION:
1 double bedroom – 1 bathroom with bath – 1 terrace
The apartment is made up of:
Electronic entrance door and lift
Kitchen: gas hob - fridge – freezer - oven – microwave oven - Nespresso coffee machine – toaster – kettle.
Bathroom: in mosaic, with bath.
Bedroom: large wardrobe, TV, double bed.
Lounge: furnished with sofas, armchairs and other antique furniture.
Dining room: sofa, french table, venetian cabinet.
Terrace with aedicula: 20sq.m. + loggia with pot plants, 16th century marble shell fountain, 14th century decoration on the entrance to the aedicula.

L' Antica Dimora TERRAZZA DE’ MEDICI is situated in the historical centre of Florence, just a stone’s throw from the Ponte Vecchio and the main sights of the city. Elegantly furnished with a rich combination of antique furniture and modern day comforts, the apartment is found on the first floor of a beautiful 15th century building which looks out onto Borgo San Iacopo, a characteristic street which leads to the famous Ponte Vecchio and its boutiques, bars and restaurants. The apartment is 70 sq m and is made up of the entrance, lounge, dining room, kitchen, bathroom and bedroom. In addition, there is a wonderful terrace with aedicula, where guests can enjoy a panoramic view over 5 avenues and relax with a cool drink, or have dinner under the moonlit sky. The triangular terrace is closed to one side by a 14th century loggia, known as the “bellosguardo”. It is in fact from here that Francesco I de Medici watched his beloved Bianca Cappello who lived in the building on via Maggio which the Great Duke had built in 1566 by Buontalenti, whose beautiful fountain is underneath the aedicule. Indeed, the love story between Francesco I de Medici and the venetian Bianca Cappello was one of the most beautiful and passionate love stories from the Renaissance period, and this house bore witness to their story.

Wonderful stay in the heart of it all!

Great location and incredible AC which is so important during the summer! Many updates and upgrades since the pictures were taken. The two bathrooms are great, both with showers and toilets. Large bedrooms with comfy beds. The kitchen is small but has a large refrigerator/freezer, a 4 burner induction cooktop, microwave, and small dishwasher. We stayed 18 nights so made a few meals there. The location is fantastic. Many wonderful restaurants within a five min walk and a grocery store too! There is only a washing machine (which is awesome) but no dryer so be sure to bring a travel clothes line to hang your clothes to dry overnight. The outside balcony/patio area is to die for, so lovely to have a private outdoor space!!

Great building and location but very noisy

The apartment was in a beautiful well situated building. The space was clean but not as well appointed or fresh as it appeared in the photos (upholstery was tired and some of the decorations cheap and tacky). The outdoor space was beautiful, but without comfortable furnishing. The greatest problem was the street noise! Bring earplugs - the noise goes late and starts early

Absolutely amazing location...

The apartment and terrace gave the old world experience we were looking for. Super easy to walk to all locations and tons of restaurants near by. I highly recommend. The only downside to property is that it is at a very busy intersection with noise at night. I just ran a background fan noise app on my phone and it worked out perfectly. Just something some may need to consider.

Architectural Gem

This apartment is in a well-designed building with thoughtful preservation and renovation. On the first floor, its primary feature is a lovely balcony and cupola room overlooking the street.While well stocked with necessities and excellent linens and cleaned weekly, this apartment has some challenges including a lack of storage space and a lack of light. The common room is small, but filled with very large furniture that cramps comfort. The primary bedrooom faces the street and can be noisy well into the night. Street cleaning starts at daybreak or a little before and there was noisy ongoing construction during our entire stay.That said, Oltrarno is wonderful, and very desirable as a neighborhood. Steps from the Centro Storico, this apartment is close to wonderful restaurants, shopping, artisan work shops and food resources without the hubbub of the major tourist areas across the Arno.

Location and character

The property is full of character and well-furnished. The lift was non-functional during our stay and there are signs of deteriorating wood on the door shutters and windows in the small conservatory on the terrace - but overall the place is ideally situated, the property manager was quick to reply to inquiries, and our stay was very enjoyable.

Perfection

From our first moment finding Luca’s apartment, we fell in love with it. Located within a short walk of the Ponte Vecchio, the River Arno and handy shops, the apartment is fitted out superbly with old and contemporary mixed expertly together. The main bedroom in particular is wonderful, the beds comfortable and the bathrooms functional, clean and stylishly tiled/fitted. However, the absolute highlight has to be the terrace with small room, enough to seat 4, overlooking the street below and perfect for pre-dinner drinks watching the world go by or late night-caps after exploring beautiful Florence. We had worried that being so close to the centre of things might mean that noise was an issue but quite frankly, nothing disturbed our night’s sleep, as once the windows are shut any noise is dimmed down. This is an exceptional find and Luca a great host. We will be back.

Oasis in Firenze!

Our stay at TERRAZZA DE' MEDICI was great! Located right across the river from the heart of Florence within an easy walk of all the top landmarks, with great neighborhood, restaurants all around. It really felt like home! And that little terrace is to die for! I would ask the host for some shampoo and bar soap and if you need to do laundry, remember there isn’t a dryer so allow for time to air dry!
