The Home
In summary
Palazzo BTL is one of the historical Florentine palazzos. It has a superb location right in the heart of Florence, just a few steps from Piazza della Signoria, the Uffizi and Ponte Vecchio. Its origins date to the 12th century but its actual form is mainly derived from a 17th century renovation. During the war German troops mined and blew up all the surroundings of Ponte Vecchio, including a part of the palazzo. For the lofty living room at the top floor the owner did a radical restoration of all the superstructures as partitions, false ceilings, layers of paint to highlight the original structure made of bricks and pillars from the tower. From the sofa you have views from S.Stefano church through the blooming terrace, and at on the opposite you can see the tower of Palazzo Vecchio.
The Palazzo is now a recently restored and decorated luxury five bedroom apartment on the terraced fourth floor in the heart of Florence. The apartement is 280 sqm.
The premises have been decorated to the highest standards, in a fashionable contemporary style.
Guests arrive at the Palazzo entering a gracious XVIIth century hall with it's original columns and statues. A beautiful vaulted staircase leads to the upper floors. If preferred, access to 4th floor is also available by a newly installed mirror lined elevator.
