Casa Francesca, with terrace and private parking
Summary:
Casa Francesca is a recently renovated apartment designed to offer modern comfort and a relaxed, well-balanced stay.
• Two comfortable bedrooms plus a sofa bed, hosting up to 5 guests
• First-floor apartment with quiet internal-facing views and refined, well-designed interiors
• Located just 1 km from the historic centre and 10 minutes by tram, ideal for exploring Florence comfortably
The Space:
Welcome to Casa Francesca, a newly renovated apartment where timeless Florentine charm meets modern comfort. Set on the first floor of a peaceful building, this bright and stylish home features two elegant bedrooms — one with a queen-size bed and the other with a French bed — and a cosy living area with a comfortable sofa bed. The fully equipped kitchen opens onto a sun-drenched terrace, a perfect spot to start your day with a coffee or unwind with a glass of wine after exploring the city. Every detail has been designed with care: air conditioning in every room, fast Wi-Fi, a Smart TV, and a private parking space — a rare luxury in Florence. Fresh linens and soft towels are provided, ensuring you feel at home from the moment you arrive.
Guest Access:
Guests have exclusive access to the entire apartment, including the private terrace and reserved parking space. The independent entrance ensures complete privacy throughout your stay. Check-in is smooth and flexible, arranged either in person or via self check-in, depending on your needs. Inside, you’ll find everything you need to feel perfectly at home: a fully equipped kitchen, fast Wi-Fi, air conditioning, and a comfortable living area where you can relax after a day exploring the city. Casa Francesca is designed to offer an effortless, authentic Florentine experience — a place where comfort, freedom, and attention to detail come together to make your stay truly memorable.
The Neighborhood:
Casa Francesca is set in a quiet and authentic residential area just outside Florence’s ZTL, where local life unfolds with calm and charm. Here, mornings start with the aroma of espresso from nearby cafés, and evenings invite you to discover family-run trattorias serving traditional Tuscan dishes. Within a few minutes’ walk, you’ll find everything you need — bakeries, supermarkets, pharmacies, and bus stops for lines 17, 22, and 23, connecting directly to the historic centre, the Duomo, and Santa Maria Novella station. Iconic landmarks such as Ponte Vecchio and the Uffizi Gallery are less than 15 minutes away by car or public transport. It’s the kind of neighborhood where you can slow down, live like a local, and still be just moments from the heart of Florence.
Getting Around:
Exploring Florence from Casa Francesca couldn’t be easier. Santa Maria Novella station is just 20 minutes on foot or 10 minutes by bus, with convenient stops close to the apartment. From there, the city’s main sights — including the Duomo, Ponte Vecchio, and the Uffizi Gallery — are all within easy reach. If you’re arriving by car, you’ll appreciate the rare privilege of private parking and a location outside the ZTL, allowing you to move freely in and out of the city. Major roads and the airport are about 20 minutes away. Whether you’re planning to explore every corner of Florence or venture into the rolling Tuscan countryside, Casa Francesca offers the perfect balance of comfort, freedom, and connection.
