Vescovi Penthouse

Located in the heart of Florence, surrounded by the Santa Croce church and the Signoria square, discover a rare rooftop apartment that offers a truly magnificent view of the city. The flat is located inside a wonderful historical building, which was the house of the embassy of the Duchy of Milan during the 15th century. It is situated on the 3rd floor without an elevator, but once you reach the top the full 360° breathtaking view will leave you speechless.

The property has undergone a recent renovation to further enhance its endless beauty and traditional 15th-century features. This new look has refreshed both the downstairs and upstairs making the apartment even cozier and comfortable for guests to enjoy. The original red terracotta floors now shine white and some of the antique furniture has been re-modeled to achieve a more modern and stylish approach.

The flat develops on two levels; on the first floor, you can find the bright and spacious master bedroom with en suite marble bathroom and shower, and a second bedroom, which can be either double or twin. Both rooms boasting charming views over the red Florentine rooftops. A second bathroom with a shower can be found too.

A charming staircase leads you to the even more “romantic” second floor. This is a truly unique and fascinating space that hosts a lounge, dining area, and a fully equipped kitchen. Nine incredible windows spread all around the room illuminate and offer a breathtaking view of Florence and the surrounding hills, without forgetting the two exclusive panoramic terraces, furnished for unforgettable outdoor meals and for simply enjoying a glass of wine whilst admiring the mesmerizing views.

All the materials used for the construction of this apartment are unique and original, dating back to the 15th century: the pavements are made of Florentine terracotta and the ceilings of wooden beams. The apartment is exceptionally convenient for guests wishing to explore the city center and visit Florence’s main attractions. No need for a car, bus or taxi! You can enjoy this wonderful city; all are within a max of 10 minutes by walk. This is a prime location for sightseeing and entertaining; the area is vibrant but very safe and has plenty of shops, restaurants, and theatres all very close.

The apartment is also located two blocks far from one of the best Italian restaurant: the famous Enoteca Pinchiorri

The apartment is absolutely quiet, up here there are only birds singing and tower bell noises. Penthouse Vescovi, it’s a magical place!!
