Dimora degli Affreschi… An entire Florentine palazzo transformed
PRINCIPE LUDOVICO
NEW LISTING
Our Florence palazzo restoration has finally reached fruition near the banks of the Arno in the thriving district of Santa Croce
Promising a truly pampering Florentine experience and spanning the entire 5 storeys of the handsome 19th-century Palazzo Fossi beside the art-filled Horne Museum on the ancient Via dei Benci, this massively ambitious project is now opening its doors to its 10 seriously sumptuous Dimora Italia Collection apartments.
Sensitively reconfigured over a 3-year period by a highly skilled team of experts with a deep understanding and appreciation of the palazzo’s historic fabric, the apartments all follow a contemporary Florentine aesthetic and are primed to become our flagship properties within the top-tier rentals market.
A treasury of exceptional city-centre bases radiating positive energy and collectively named Dimora degli Affreschi (Residence of the Frescoes), its accommodation ranges from a spectacular 2 bedroom / 2 bathroom apartment showcasing towering ceilings cloaked in a vivid expanse of classical frescoes, through to a stylishly attired 3 bedroom / 4 bathroom duplex with roof timbers and a pair of terraces peacefully situated to the rear, while the entirely bespoke interiors have been curated by ArchFlorence, the brilliantly gifted architectural designers we’ve partnered over the past 10+ years.
Centrally located within a stone’s throw of the Uffizi Gallery and conveniently close to – yet not overwhelmed by – an array of small shops, cafes and restaurants, Dimora degli Affreschi can host up to 56 guests when reserved for exclusive use, while all pristine spaces within have been meticulously prepped for your pleasure.
Boasting top-notch comforts and all the hallmarks of Dimora Italia Collection’s styling including air-conditioning, Wi-Fi connection, custom-made fixtures and delicious decor, the apartments are individually named in honour of the owners’ adored offspring and include the cosseting and super-comfortable…
PRINCIPE LUDOVICO (SLEEPS 6)
2nd and 3rd Floor – 3 bedrooms / 3 bathrooms
Reached via a few steps up from the main palazzo entrance with stairs and / or lift to the
2nd Floor followed by internal stairs to the 3rd Floor, this spacious yet cosy and welcoming apartment comprises:
A reception hall with mirrored cloaks cupboard and glazed corridor overlooking an inner courtyard leading towards a delightful dual-access double bedroom, beautifully dressed in slate-blue teamed with natural linen colours and with a double bed, a pair of custom-built wardrobes (one on either side) and its own sleek bathroom in marble and polished marmorino with tiled rain shower
Original stone steps (just a few) lead down to…
The apartment’s open-plan sitting / dining room / kitchen area ready to cocoon you in comfort and overlooking the inner courtyard, stylishly presented in dreamy sea-greens and blues and with ceiling timbers overhead, a fabulous L-shaped sofa for lazy lounging at your leisure, a circular glass dining suite hosting 6 guests, and a compact yet well-equipped kitchen corner just to the side with integrated appliances
Passing through an inner hallway with storage closet and a handy washing machine / dryer ideal for longer stays, we reach the…
Absolutely charming 2nd double bedroom in similar colours to the sitting room, bathed in natural light thanks to its 2 shuttered windows overlooking Corso dei Tintori, with a canopied double bed and walk-through mirrored closet area just to the rear leading to a sparkling en suite bathroom in marble and polished blue marmorino with bathtub and separate rain shower… sheer bathtime bliss!
Returning to the inner hallway, wooden stairs rise to the 3rd Floor and lead directly into…
Principe Ludovico’s principal bedroom gloriously decked out in Lewis & Wood’s Beech tree wallcovering (your little treehouse in the city!) with a double bed in matching colours, whitewashed beams, a mirrored wardrobe to the side, a bijou en suite bathroom in polished marmorino with marble shower, and to the fore, a covered furnished terrace (accessible from both the bathroom and bedroom) facing the Corso dei Tintori
* Are you part of a larger group who’d like to stay together at the palazzo but in separate apartments? We offer 9 other deluxe apartments within Dimora degli Affreschi:
Duca Marco – 4 guests
Barone Achille – 6 guests
Don Tommaso – 6 guests
Conte Jacopo – 6 guests
Cavalier Paolo – 4 guests

PROPERTY PRÉCIS
An imposing Florentine palazzo brought up to date with aplomb!... and joining our hugely popular Dimora Nova Terrace nearby in raising our profile in this truly magical Renaissance city.
A gentle walk to the architectural masterpiece that is Florence’s iconic Duomo (but a little more effort is required to reach the top!), and close to the Basilica and sunny Piazza Santa Croce, and to the overwhelmingly spectacular, statue-dominated Piazza della Signoria for a generous helping of people-watching and a dose of Dolce Vita.
A short stroll along the nearby Ponte alle Grazie bridge crossing the Arno to the wonderful Pitti Palace and its treasures, the bucolic Boboli Gardens, and the unmatched city vistas from the Piazzale Michelangelo.
Artisans, markets, cafes, bars and restaurants are woven through the ancient streets (including the much loved ‘La Buchetta’ directly opposite and the rustic ‘Del Fagioli’ just around the corner!), while the handy Conad supermarket close by satisfies self-catering needs, and a nearby car park provides parking if arriving on four wheels.
Promising Dimora Italia’s 25 key ingredients – a guarantee of quality and exceptional customer service designed to make your time with us as favoloso as can be!

Worth the extra money to have the private bathrooms for each couple (with each bedroom), the ability to store our luggage, and the top-notch assistance from Dimora Italia! Wish we could have stayed a week! :)

The apartment was exactly as it appeared in the photos. I am very particular about cleanliness and the apartment was very clean. The mattresses were comfortable and the location of the building was great. We look forward to a future stay.

The definition of luxury in this 3 bedroom 3 bath apartment. Everything was outstanding! The location is superb near the Arno river, yet it was a short walk to all of the Florence sights we wanted to visit. The apartment had beautiful furnishings and was large enough to give our family more than enough space. You won’t find a better 3BD/3 BA apartment in Florence than this one!! Cecilia and staff were so welcoming and always available to us via text/cell phone. We would definitely recommend this home and hope to be back and stay here in the future.

The apartment was beautiful, new, and of the highest quality. The design and decoration of the space was very luxurious. Additionally, we have been in contact with Cecilia who has gone above and beyond in helping us book tours, find a Sunday mass time, and booking restaurants. The apartment is centrally located and within walking distance of all the main attractions and restaurants. Our experience was amazing and we can’t wait to return in a few days.

The apartment is HUGE and immaculate. All of the fixtures, furniture, and appliances were top of the line with even some custom pieces made specifically for the space. On top of all of this, the customer service and communication was way beyond expectation. Not only were they tremendously responsive, they were proactive, thoughtful, helpful, and kind. They even have an onsite office with a manager and other helpful staff. Thankfully they have other properties in other parts of the country as I will only stay with them whenever I travel to Italy. They set such a high bar, others will be hard pressed to match.
