The best neighborhoods to live in Florence with kids
We start from the Bobolino, Pian Dei Giullari and Poggio Imperiale area. Adding an extra touch to the Bobolino neighborhood are the beautiful public park and Villa Cora. The latter, now converted into a luxury hotel, was once the home of Empress Eugenie. Strolling through the streets of Poggio Imperiale, one can come across a small museum with historical-scientific collections, while Pian Dei Giullari fascinates with villas and houses that still retain the typical atmosphere of the past.
In particular, it is said that in one of its houses there was a kind of theater in which jesters and comedians performed.Therefore, by buying a property in this neighborhood, one may be lucky enough to live in a house immersed in a great artistic and cultural atmosphere. In addition, these are obviously very safe neighborhoods and well provided with all the services that can come in handy for a family unit. Very good areas to live in Florence with children.
A short walk from the historic center and close to places of great interest, such as the church of San Bartolomeo, the area bounded by the Marignolle, Monte Olivero and Le Campora districts presents itself as the most desirable choice for those who want a family property in a particularly stately, quiet and, above all, surrounded by greenery.
Recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the historic center of Florence offers the chance to admire some of the world’s most fascinating and important cultural heritages. For those who want to fully experience the tradition of this fascinating city and buy a house rich in history, with high ceilings, ample square footage, perhaps embellished with frescoes and statues, we recommend instead the Santa Croce and San Gallo areas. Among the most sought-after neighborhoods for Florentine family real estate lovers is the Fiesole area, considered one of Florence’s most exclusive suburbs.
Rich in palaces of high economic value, which give additional value to the area, Fiesole is the reference point for culture lovers. For those planning to purchase a villa for their family, however, the right choice is the Cure area, which presents the right blend of history and culture for both the city and the country as a whole.
