The city that fits your description is Lucca. Everybody rides a bicycle, the historic centre is pedestrian...and gorgeous and it has great communications. Plus it is a town with character and history. Pisa or Florence airports are close (less than 1 hour away), train takes you everywhere and Florence, Pisa, Volterra, Sienna, the Cinque Terre, Assisi, Gubbio, Todi, The Versilia, Bologna, Modena.... And even Portofino are day trips.....
Hi, I was hoping that someone closer to where your son lives will come up with a comprehensive list; however, this is my advice: there are two names that come to my mind immediately, one is the proverbial IKEA (www.ikea.it) and the Italian Mondo Convenienza (www.mondoconvenienza.it) and both deliver and assemble at an extra cost. It will also be important to check local shops and hypermarkets. As for second hand shops, they are not as popular in Italy as they are in other parts of the world. Markets tend to be devoted to antique and vintage items, and nowadays they are not cheap, as foreign dealers are buying from them and prices have increased dramatically. There are also outlets called "Mercatino dell Usato", but, if they are like their Tuscan counterparts, no bargains to be found. Good luck!
