Elegantly furnished with a rich combination of antique furniture and modern day comforts, the apartment is found on the first floor of a beautiful 15th century building which looks out onto Borgo San Iacopo, a characteristic street which leads to the famous Ponte Vecchio and its boutiques, bars and restaurants.

In addition, there is a wonderful terrace with aedicula, where guests can enjoy a panoramic view over 5 avenues and relax with a cool drink, or have dinner under the moonlit sky. The triangular terrace is closed to one side by a 14th century loggia, known as the “bellosguardo”. It is in fact from here that Francesco I de Medici watched his beloved Bianca Cappello who lived in the building on via Maggio which the Great Duke had built in 1566 by Buontalenti, whose beautiful fountain is underneath the aedicule. Indeed, the love story between Francesco I de Medici and the venetian Bianca Cappello was one of the most beautiful and passionate love stories from the Renaissance period, and this house bore witness to their story.

" L’Antica Dimora Terrazza de’ Medici is located in the heart of Florence, just a stone’s throw from the main tourist sights of the city. To one side there is Ponte Vecchio, one of the most important symbols of the city, and to the other there is Ponte a Santa Trinità which leads into Via Tornabuoni, the most exclusive shopping street of the city. It is possible to leave the car for a few days and wander around, taking in the sights and sounds one of the most beautiful cities in the world - the museums, the buildings and the churches, Palazzo Vecchio, the Uffizi Gallery, the Cathedral with Brunelleschi’s magnificent dome and Giotto’s Belltower. Continuing towards Piazza Santa Croce, you can stop in a ‘trattoria’ for a light lunch, or wander around the characteristic market of San Lorenzo. You can also enjoy a visit to the Palatina Gallery, and Palazzo Pitti with the splendid Boboli Gardens. Wandering through the characteristic city streets of ‘Oltrarno’ you will be able to soak up the atmosphere of the shops, cafes and craftsmen’s workshops of this part of Florence which have maintained some of their magnificent past and where tradition lives on today. If you choose to dine in one of the top restaurants on the banks of the Arno you will be able to sit back and watch the Florentine hustle and bustle. L’Antica Dimora Terrazza de’ Medici is ideal for people who wish to spend an unforgettable stay in Florence, whether for business or holidays. "
