About this property

A Unique Penthouse with Spectacular Terraces in the Beating Heart of Rome

Discover a haven of rare elegance in the vibrant heart of the Eternal City: a one-of-a-kind penthouse with expansive, fully furnished terraces adorned with lush plants, spread across two levels and located on both sides of the apartment. Here, where the rooftops of Rome stretch out before your eyes, you’ll enjoy a truly extraordinary view: the dome of the Pantheon, Palazzo Medici, countless church domes, and the magic of the city’s historic alleyways.

Located on the historic Via della Stelletta, just steps from Campo Marzio and Rome’s main attractions, this apartment offers a rare opportunity to experience the city from a privileged and truly authentic perspective. A genuine Roman home, lived in by real Romans.

The apartment spans two floors connected by a striking wooden staircase and is housed in a historic building that, unusually for the area, features an elevator — a rare and welcome convenience. Inside, traditional charm meets modern comfort, with exposed wooden beams, parquet flooring, and carefully curated design elements that balance history and functionality. The lower floor features a cozy living room, a spacious master bedroom with en-suite bathroom, and a custom-built library.

Upstairs, a second living area with a fireplace leads to a fully equipped kitchen (dishwasher, oven, microwave, kettle, large refrigerator, washing machine), a second bathroom with shower, and another double bedroom. But the real magic of this home lies just beyond its doors.

The terraces — the true heart of the home — are three in total, interconnected and situated on both sides of the penthouse. Fully furnished, rich in greenery and perfect for relaxing, they welcome you at every hour of the day: breakfast in the sun, lunch in the shade of the bamboo pergola, or a glass of wine at sunset with the rooftops of Rome at your feet. A spiral staircase leads to a small elevated solarium — an intimate and enchanting lookout point, ideal for taking in the city from above.

The home is equipped with air conditioning, fast Wi-Fi, and all legally required safety features.

Enjoying terraces like these in the heart of Rome is a rare and precious luxury. This is not just a stay — it’s an authentic Roman experience, suspended between sky, history, and beauty.

Location location location. Unique two-level penthouse apartment in a wonderful, quiet and walkable area. Great outdoor spaces, which is what we enjoyed the most. 2 bedrooms with a very comfortable queen size bed in each. The elevator and air conditioners were a big hit after a full day of walking. Multiple floor levels within the apartment, which is often the case in Rome.We were met by the host upon arrival, and they also organized transportation for us.Great communication.

Our stay on Stelletta was absolutely wonderful. Even though it was winter, we were lucky to enjoy a couple of sunny days, and during the warmer hours we could truly make the most of the terrace. The views are simply breathtaking and unforgettable you really can see all of Rome’s historic center from up there.The apartment itself is beautiful, spacious, and filled with natural light, with a genuine “lived-in” feel that makes you feel at home right away. Books, artwork, and thoughtful details create an authentic atmosphere it doesn’t feel like a generic rental, but a real Roman home.The service provided by fromhometorome was excellent. Check-in was punctual and smooth, and they also arranged our airport transfers, which made everything incredibly easy. From start to finish, everything went perfectly. We would happily stay here again and highly recommend it.

Our second time in Rome was even better than the first.This apartment is truly special. The terrace is fabulous, it feels like being in a little tower right in the center of Rome, with an incredible 360 view over the rooftops and the domes. We spent every evening outside, enjoying the lights and the magic atmosphere of the city.Inside, the apartment feels like a real Roman home. You can feel its history everywhere, with all those books on the shelves and that warm, lived-in charm. We felt genuinely honored to stay in such an authentic place, and it really felt like being guests in the home of true Romans. The beds were very comfortable, the bathrooms a bit old-fashioned but perfectly fine and with great hot water. The kitchen was well equipped and very functional.A big thank you to Sara and all the team, always kind and quick to reply. We would love to come back one day.
