Description
Prestigious Penthouse in the heart of Florence - Florence – Prestigious Penthouse in the Heart of the City, within the Historic “Villino Trollope”
In the very heart of Florence, inside the elegant former Villino Trollope — an extraordinary 19th-century mansion currently undergoing a major restoration project — we are proud to present for sale an exclusive and distinguished residence. The renovation will restore the building to its original splendour, featuring premium finishes, state-of-the-art technology, and bespoke customization options designed to enhance the unique identity of each individual home.
Residents will also enjoy access to a range of exclusive shared amenities, including a wellness and fitness area, a private cinema room, and a sophisticated lounge.
The Apartment
This residence is a true gem just steps away from Florence’s historic centre. The entrance, accessible via the scenic original staircase or by elevator, opens into a grand reception room featuring four large windows and a charming balcony with breathtaking views over the city’s most iconic monuments.
Adjacent to the living room is a bright dining room and a fully equipped eat-in kitchen with direct access to a panoramic terrace of approximately 70 sqm — a rare and precious outdoor space in the heart of the city.
The spacious and sun-drenched living area is the vibrant heart of the home: thanks to its south-facing exposure, natural light floods the interiors throughout the day.
The sleeping quarters include three elegant bedrooms and four refined bathrooms, all designed for maximum comfort and style.
This property represents a unique opportunity to live in a landmark of Florentine history without sacrificing contemporary living — complete with cutting-edge technology and energy-efficient solutions.
A Place Steeped in History
Villino Trollope was once the residence of the renowned Trollope family, who settled in Florence in 1843 and became central figures in the city’s cultural and political life during the second half of the 19th century. Within its marble-columned halls, adorned with exquisite decorations and refined furnishings, the residence became a cultural salon frequented by intellectuals and patriots.
During Florence’s period as Italy’s capital (1865–1871), the building hosted the embassies of the Netherlands and Portugal, further cementing its prestige. Later, it was transformed into a distinguished guesthouse that welcomed notable figures such as Thomas Hardy and Ethelbert Woodridge Nevin.
The Location
Overlooking Piazza Indipendenza, the property enjoys a strategic and central location, allowing residents to reach the city’s main landmarks and points of interest on foot. Thanks to its proximity to the city’s ring roads (viali di circonvallazione), access to major roadways is quick and convenient.
A property of unparalleled prestige, featuring a panoramic terrace, luminous interiors, and a wealth of exclusive services — all set within a uniquely historic context. A rare opportunity to experience the charm of Florence’s past with all the comforts of contemporary living, in the city’s most authentic and vibrant heart.
