About Oltrarno Apartment
A refined two-bedroom apartment in the heart of Florence, set directly on the Lungarno with panoramic river views, featuring elevator access and quiet courtyard-facing en-suite bedrooms, perfectly positioned for exploring the city entirely on foot.
The Setting
Set directly on the Lungarno—the historic river embankment—this residence sits on Florence’s quieter south bank. By choosing the authentic Oltrarno side of the river, you remain completely insulated from the crowded, tourist-heavy center across the water, enjoying the residential atmosphere of a true Florentine neighborhood. Furthermore, its open riverfront orientation ensures the interiors receive exceptional natural light—a rare luxury for a historic city home.
Outside your door, an authentic local lifestyle unfolds across independent boutiques, neighborhood wine bars, and traditional artisan galleries. The location is exceptionally walkable, allowing the city to reveal itself effortlessly as you wander. A scenic stroll along the water brings you to the cultural icons of the Uffizi Gallery and the historic stone arches of the Ponte Vecchio, or over to the gourmet food stalls of the Mercato Centrale to source fresh Tuscan ingredients. Each milestone landmark is reachable within a short, highly enjoyable walk.
The Living Spaces
Situated on the third floor of an elegant Florentine palazzo, the apartment features elevator access—a significant asset for a historic building. The interiors preserve the estate's structural heritage through high ceilings, antique furnishings, and delicate fresco details, balanced by clean, contemporary comforts.
The layout is optimized for relaxation and seamless hosting. The main living and dining area directly frames the Arno River, creating a dynamic backdrop for meals at home. At the center of the floor plan sits a fully equipped open kitchen, designed for casual dining and conversation. To ensure uninterrupted rest, both air-conditioned bedrooms face a peaceful internal courtyard, completely insulated from street activity. Each room includes its own en-suite bathroom finished in classic Italian marble. Modern, high-end amenities are seamlessly integrated throughout to ensure an effortless, comfortable city stay.
The Experience
Oltrarno Apartment is tailored for couples, friends, or a small family seeking an authentic Florence experience with the complete freedom of a private home.
The cadence of daily life here is defined by convenience. You can begin the morning with espresso along the riverbanks, spend the afternoon exploring world-class museums, and browse independent boutiques steps from your door. As dusk falls, dine at a neighborhood trattoria close to home as the city lights reflect along the water. For those wishing to look beyond the city center, private tours, exclusive wine tastings, and tailored day trips into the surrounding Tuscan countryside can be seamlessly arranged around your stay.
