Penthouse piazza della Santissima Annunziata, San Marco - SS Annunziata, Florence

In Piazza della Santissima Annunziata, in the heart of Florence and just two steps from Piazza del Duomo and Piazza della Signoria, we find this prestigious 520-sqm penthouse on the second floor of Palazzo Budini Gattai. The unit, in good structural shape, needs a general renovation but could easily accommodate up to 10 bedrooms with bathroom for the creation of a luxury boutique hotel or even a prestigious private apartment in the heart of the city.
Services are clearly available in the center of Florence and everything is at walking distance. Exiting Florence it is then very easy to reach several cities of Tuscany such as Fiesole, Siena, San Casciano in Val di Pesa, Colle di Val d’Elsa, Montepulciano, Pienza…).

DESCRIPTION OF THE APARTMENT
The penthouse is located on the second floor of Palazzo Budini Gattai, located in Piazza della Santissima Annunziata, one of the Renaissant landmarks in the heart of Florence. The huge apartment (520 sqm) is made up of 15 ample rooms, all accessed independently, that are currently unused but could be easily converted into reception halls and/or bedrooms with bathroom.
The building, in good condition, still features some of the original finishes among which the remains of several frescoes visible all around the apartment. Particularly interesting is the huge stained-glass skylight located at the center of the building.
Access to the apartment is through a monumental condominium staircase decorated with an iron balustrade and stone columns, added during the renovation of the late 19th century supervised by Giuseppe Boccini. The palazzo is the only one in Florence featuring an exposed-brick façade.
