Roughly 150 m from Piazza del Duomo in Florence, on the fourth floor of a recently restored Renaissance palazzo, 100-sqm penthouse with 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. The windows overlooking Via dei Servi also offer a beautiful view over the Dome of Santa Maria del Fiore. 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.
The main door of the apartment opens in a small entry. From here, a side door on the left leads into a wardrobe with a bathroom. The other door, right in front of the entrance, leads into a double living room with an open-space kitchen and dining room. From here two doors on each side lead into the two bedrooms of the apartment (one of which with an en-suite bathroom and walk-in closet).
The building is the typical Florentine palazzo: the main façade, along Via dei Servi, is 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.
