Capturing the elegance of Rome’s postwar years, this beautifully dressed apartment harks back to a vintage era of luxury and style.

Housed in a beautifully restored early 20th-century building, the home features hand-picked period pieces, dark wood flourishes and marble floors, creating a retro ambience that feels effortlessly timeless.

We love how much natural light pours in through the large windows, bathing the living space in light. Whether you’re sitting back on the armchair with a good book and a glass of wine or gathering for a celebratory soirée at the chic bistro-style table, you’ll feel perfectly dapper chilling out in this welcoming space.

The bedroom, meanwhile, is pared-back yet equally stylish with a large bed inviting a restful night’s sleep. And wake-ups are made all the more relaxing when met with the stunning art Deco-inspired bathroom, replete with Italian tiles, vintage fittings and a luxurious rainfall shower.

Outside of your home, you’ve got plenty of cultural and historic hotspots within easy walking distance, including the Vatican City (fifteen minutes), Ponte Sant'Angelo (twenty minutes) and Piazza del Popolo (twenty-five minutes). Factor in your Prati neighbourhood’s countless high-end boutiques, alfresco wine bars, stylish cocktail lounges and gourmet restaurants, and you’ve got everything you need to experience Rome’s dolce vita.
