Repräsentative Zweistöckige Residenz Im Palazzo Demidoff

In the vibrant heart of the Oltrarno district, within the monumental Palazzo Demidoff, we are pleased to present a residence of rare elegance.

The property spans the mezzanine level and the main noble floor of this historic building, once home to the prestigious educational and charitable institute founded by Russian prince Nikolaj Demidoff.

Located in San Niccolò, one of Florence’s oldest, most authentic and exclusive neighbourhoods, the residence enjoys a highly coveted position: just a short walk from the ancient 14th‐century city gate, from charming views over the Arno river, and from the panoramic Piazzale Michelangelo.

Access to the palazzo is through a majestic neoclassical entrance hall, featuring an elegant chequered floor in white and grey marble and Tuscan‐style pietra serena stone columns. From here, a wide staircase and a modern lift connect the various levels, including the basement floor, where the private garage parking space is located.

Property Features

The residence, measuring 201 sqm of commercial surface with dual aspect, has been completely refurbished with luxury finishes and offers great layout flexibility thanks to its two entrances (the main one on the piano nobile and the secondary/ service one on the mezzanine level).

Main Noble Floor:

The primary entrance opens onto a hallway with a full bathroom and wardrobe. The heart of the home is the main reception room, flooded with light from two large south‐facing windows, accommodating the living and dining areas, with the adjacent kitchen area and pantry. The rooms on this level boast a height of over 5 metres, with exposed beams and traditional terracotta tiles. In this salon, it is possible to create a decorative mezzanine area, as shown in the floor plans. On this level, there is also the principal bedroom with a windowed en‐suite bathroom and a mezzanine wardrobe area (accessed via a distinctive “boat‐style” staircase), as well as a second versatile room, currently registered as a walk‐in wardrobe but ideal as an additional bedroom.

Mezzanine Level:

Internally connected and benefiting from its own independent entrance, this floor includes a laundry area, a windowed hallway overlooking the internal courtyard, and a further generous room with a private bathroom. Both of these spaces, although currently registered as a hallway/wardrobe, are perfectly suited to be used as additional bedrooms. Given the independent access, this level could be dedicated to guests or staff accommodation, fully separate from the main noble floor above.

The two levels are linked by an internal staircase finished in resin, with a protective metal balustrade that reflects the style of this magnificent nineteenth century property.

The renovation project, now in its final phase regarding some minor details, has preserved the historic charm while integrating top‐quality materials and state‐of‐the‐art technology, including:

- Natural oak flooring, travertine marble in the bathrooms and custom‐made artisan doors.

- Underfloor radiant heating with independent control (noble floor), provision for air‐conditioning and high‐performance lacquered wooden window frames with excellent thermal and acoustic insulation.

- Fan‐coil units on the mezzanine level powered by a heat pump.

- Armoured entrance doors with advanced security systems.

This residence represents the perfect balance between the monumentality of Florence’s historic past and the functionality of a contemporary home, complete with a private parking space in the garage, in one of the city’s most sought‐after locations.
