Palazzo Serristori - Luxury Apartments For Sale In Florence
Apartment building for sale by Florence's river Arno
Historical palace with elegant 19th-century frescoes for sale in Florence
One of the most important Renaissance palaces in Florence, Palazzo Serristori, has returned to its former glory thanks to an extensive restoration project, which has resulted in the creation of twelve exclusive ultra-luxury apartments, ranging in size from approximately 170 sqm to 500 sqm.
This prestigious 16th-century residence, once owned by the noble Serristori family, loyal allies of the Medici, overlooks the banks of the Arno River, just a few steps from the city’s historic center and its world-renowned monuments.
The magnificent palace, with a total surface area of 5,500 sqm, spans five floors and still retains priceless original features, expertly restored, such as precious frescoes, marble fireplaces, a large terracotta stove, and impressive 18th-century Murano chandeliers, which continue to dominate the grand ballroom. Among the common areas created for the apartments are an exclusive SPA, a fitness area, a 13-meter swimming pool — the only one within the UNESCO historic center of Florence — and a private garden of 2,748 sqm. The palace also features three independent entrances, each served by a convenient elevator connecting all floors.
According to historians, the original project for the palace was likely designed by Giuliano and Antonio da Sangallo, along with Benedetto da Maiano, with whom they had already built the imposing Palazzo Strozzi, also in Florence. A later expansion was carried out under the direction of Averardo Serristori, a friend and admirer of Michelangelo, to whom some scholars attribute the design of the ancient helical staircase connecting the underground levels to the top floor. The creation of the extraordinary Italian garden, still visible today on the left bank of the Arno and known as the largest in the city, also dates back to this period.
In the vibrant heart of the Cradle of the Renaissance, Palazzo Serristori has regained its original magnificence, combining the most modern residential comforts with a setting of incomparable historical and architectural value.
