Ocean Airstream

Ocean Airstream: Tuscany

Modern, bright and ideally positioned on the edge of the Livorno seafront, this apartment more than lives up to its gorgeous location.

Wood features, stylish industrial touches and a very neutral and calming colour palette create a distinctly contemporary, beachy feel in the main living area. Large glass walls invite floods of natural light inside, while the softer textures of the pouffes and furr rugs keep things cosy. We love the use of stone and marble, particularly the clean black lines, artistic lighting and granite backsplash in the open-plan kitchen and dining area that makes for a sleek, minimalist space to enjoy a quick meal.

Through to the master bedroom, where earthy brown tones, hemp furnishings, animal artwork and a circular bed combine for a shabby chic room with plenty of visual interest. Wake up to green views of the luscious palm-lined garden and distant sea views through the floor-to-ceiling windows, before washing up in the luxury en-suite bathroom. Maintain your morning fitness routine in the gym or head straight to the terrace for a reinvigorating dip in the infinity pool.

Later, come together for a few early-evening sundowners or an alfresco feast on the patio terrace. It's a great sociable space to relax with the living room doors sliding open, instantly merging indoor and outdoor communal areas. Head into town for an enchanting seafront promenade, full of restaurants, shops and bars, just thirteen minutes away by car or taxi.
