Key Points
Occupying the ground floor of a beautifully restored 19th-century Florentine palazzo in the heart of Santa Croce, this two-bedroom apartment blends centuries of frescoed history with quietly refined contemporary design. Two en suite bathrooms in polished marmorino and marble serve four guests in space defined by vaulted ceilings, warm terracotta tones and an open-plan living, dining and kitchen area anchored by a circular marble table. Steps from the Uffizi Gallery, the Arno and Piazza della Signoria, it places Florence's finest landmarks within a short stroll while offering the privacy and comfort of a true residence. Every detail, from the original fresco work overhead to the curated furnishings throughout, reflects the same meticulous restoration that defines the entire Dimora degli Affreschi collection.
Prestigious Location
Set on the ancient Via dei Benci in the heart of Florence's Santa Croce district, the apartment sits directly beside the art-filled Horne Museum and a stone's throw from the Uffizi Gallery. The Ponte Vecchio, Piazza Santa Croce and Piazza della Signoria are all within a short walk, placing the city's most iconic landmarks on the guest's doorstep. Local life is just as close at hand, with beloved neighborhood trattorias, artisan workshops and the Conad supermarket all within a few steps of the front door.
Refined Interiors
Both bedrooms and en suite bathrooms are finished in polished marmorino and marble, with bespoke mirrored wardrobes and custom fixtures throughout. The open-plan living, dining and kitchen area is dressed in warm terracotta tones, anchored by a circular marble dining table and a fully integrated galley kitchen. Every surface and furnishing was curated by ArchFlorence, the architectural studio behind the palazzo's three-year restoration, giving the apartment a cohesive, designer-led feel rare in short-term rentals.
Artistic Sanctuary
Named for the vivid, centuries-old frescoes that crown its vaulted ceilings, the apartment turns everyday living into something closer to a private gallery experience. The reception hall and open-plan living space are both capped by original fresco work, with the second bedroom framed by an equally striking semi-vaulted ceiling. This is the defining feature of the entire Dimora degli Affreschi collection, and it's on full, unrestored display here.
