A Historic Property with a Spectacular View Overlooking Piazza della Signoria

Situated in the most dramatic heart of Florence — where the city opens up into the magnificence of Piazza della Signoria — this fourth-floor apartment in Palazzo Uguccioni combines history and beauty. Commissioned by Giovanni Uguccioni in the mid-16th century, the palazzo represents one of the finest examples of Florentine architecture; its façade, possibly designed by Raphael, is distinguished by classical and sculptural qualities.

Located on the fourth floor and accessible by elevator, the apartment features elegantly restored, bespoke interiors and is offered for sale tastefully furnished. The rooms exude great elegance, evoking the atmosphere of noble Florentine residences where every room tells a story and every material is chosen for longevity. The layout is harmonious and functional: the property includes a grand entrance hall, a formal living room with a fireplace, a dining room with a separate kitchen, three bedrooms (two with walk-in closets), and four bathrooms (including a guest bathroom). The spatial arrangement creates a natural distinction between social areas and private quarters, ensuring comfort and livability. There is also a well-separated laundry and utility area.

The private balcony—accessible from the living room and offering a direct view of Palazzo Vecchio—is the emotional heart of the home: a unique vantage point from which to experience the square as a daily stage. Here, the light shifts with the passing hours, the architectural elements converse with one another, and history seems to unfold before one’s eyes.

This apartment is an extraordinarily rare offering, distinguished by its location and the palazzo itself, as well as the quality of its restoration and furnishings.
