NEIGHBORHOOD
The apartment is located in one of the oldest and most picturesque neighborhoods of Florence, which, despite having changed its physiognomy over the years, has maintained its vein of an authentic area that can still be perceived today.
We are in Oltrarno, an integral part of the historic center of Florence, including the famous districts of Santo Spirito and San Frediano, where there are monuments, gardens, museums and monumental palaces unique in the world.
It may be for this reason that the historic de Medici family chose to establish here their sumptuous home in Palazzo Pitti, with its beautiful Boboli Garden. In addition, the Basilica of Santa Maria del Carmine with the Brancacci Chapel, the Basilica of Santo Spirito, the Bardini Garden, together with the workshops of artisans, goldsmiths, restorers, make the Oltrarno the area of Florence where Florentine life and can still be breathed.
In fact, San Frediano is also known as the district of Artisans and Artists, full of stories to tell and emotions to experience and represents the most authentic area of the city, where the old Florentine traditions continue to live with their typical workshops, in which you can still see various artisans and artists at work.
We are also a stone's throw from the Florentine “nightlife”, with its many restaurants/taverns and clubs that animate squares and streets with their outdoor tables, especially in summer. Here you can enjoy the best Tuscan cuisine for both an informal lunch and a romantic dinner.
