Joyful Lungarno Apartment

Located in the historic Palazzo Benci, this apartment sits at the corner of Lungarno delle Grazie and Via dei Benci, steps from Ponte alle Grazie. The building features a rare elevator providing direct access to the entrance. This two-bedroom, two-bathroom home has been recently renovated with a focus on bold, colorful wallpapers and contemporary styling. It offers great amenities, a functional layout in a premier riverside position, perfectly placed between the Arno and Piazza Santa Croce.
The interior of the residence has been completely transformed through a fresh renovation that prioritizes both style and utility. Each of the two bedrooms is paired with its own bathroom, providing an ideal setup for two couples or a family seeking privacy. The second bedrroom can be set-up with two twin beds or a queen bed (with topper). The aesthetic is defined by vibrant, high-quality wallpapers that give the living spaces a distinct, modern character. While the kitchen is designed with a compact footprint, it is fully equipped with all necessary cookware and appliances for preparing meals at home. To enhance the guest experience, the apartment includes a dedicated espresso coffee machine for authentic Italian mornings, a washing machine that is also a dryer, and a powerful air conditioning system to maintain a comfortable temperature throughout the Tuscan summer. For entertainment and connectivity, a large Smart TV is available in the main living area.
The intersection of Lungarno delle Grazie and Via dei Benci is one of the most strategic and picturesque locations in the historic center of Florence. Directly outside the front door, the Arno river offers wide, bright views and a direct path to the Ponte alle Grazie, which serves as a quieter, more authentic alternative to the crowded Ponte Vecchio. A short, three-minute walk leads you into the heart of Piazza Santa Croce, famous for its magnificent basilica and lively seasonal events. The immediate neighborhood is highly functional for residents, featuring a diverse mix of traditional trattorias, historic wine bars, and local grocery stores. Crossing the bridge puts you immediately in the Oltrarno district, where you can explore artisan workshops, the Rose Garden, and the scenic climb toward Piazzale Michelangelo for the city's most famous panoramic views.
