Roughly 150 m from Piazza del Duomo in Florence, on the first floor of a recently restored Renaissance palazzo, 56-sqm apartment with 1 bedroom and 1 bathroom. The access is via a condominium staircase from Via dei Servi. The property is currently under renovation and the buyer is given the freedom of choosing the finishes he/she prefers, which can be seen on a catalogue on site. Given its small size, the apartment could easily be rented out to students of the University of Florence.

Entering through the main door one ends up in the amplest room of the apartment, which makes up the living area of the unit. A sofa-bed also allows using the room as a sleeping area. A corridor then leads to the kitchen, a laundry and a bathroom.

The building is the typical Florentine palazzo: the main façades, along Via dei Servi and Via Bufalini, are laid over four floors. The lower one features the light ashlar (bugnato) commonly found in many palazzos dating back to the 14th and 15th centuries. A string course marks the lower edge of the second floor, sporting gabled windows (both triangular and half-circular) and well-visible cornerstones in contrast with the white plastered façade. A second course marks the third floor, identical in style to the one below it, which then goes on to the roof without further divisions.
