San Miniato
Property # 8449

Location
50 m from Piazzale Michelangelo.

San Miniato is situated in one of the most attractive and well known residential areas in Florence: opposite the steps leading up to the San Miniato al Monte church and around 50 m from the Piazzale Michelangelo – on a slight hill above the turbulent city. The apartment is on the top floor of a 19th century villa. It offers air-conditioning (a rarity in Italy!) and, above all, a patio with fantastic views of Florence: from the cathedral dome of Brunelleschi all the way to the Campanile of the Piazza Signoria.

You can park your car on the villa’s property and explore the city center on foot: down the steps of the Piazzale Michelangelo to the Porta San Niccolò and along the elegant promenade bordering the Arno, up to the famous Ponte Vecchio - a pleasant walk taking a good 15 minutes. The city center can be quickly and conveniently reached with the bus - the bus stop is just in front of the property. If you want to take the car into the center, just drive down the stately viale at the southern end of the city - a wonderful, 3 km long avenue flanked by old trees from the past century and historical villas with large front gardens
