Nel Sestiere of Cannaregio, the Scuola di Santa Maria della Misericordia, together with those of San Rocco, San Marco, Santa Maria della Carità, San Giovanni Evangelista, San Teodoro and the Carmini, made up the seven “Scuole Grandi” of Venice.
After visiting one of the exhibitions currently hosted by the Scuola, we walk along the Fondamenta della Misericordia towards the Venetian Ghetto, the beating heart of Cannaregio, where numerous historic workshops and restaurants, charming antique shops, artists’ studios and several art galleries take us back in time.
Immediately struck by the beautiful floors of the spacious entrance hall, we go up the flight of stairs to reach the first floor, where the splendid 70-sqm apartment we are viewing today is located. We cross the shared balcony, rich with flowers and plants, and reach the convenient entrance, equipped with air conditioning, which leads us into the generously sized kitchen with a pleasant open view; here it comes naturally to imagine dining with friends at sunset.
The master bedroom is a perfect retreat, where every detail is designed to offer maximum relaxation and quiet. A second double bedroom and a renovated bathroom with a window complete the property.
Natural light floods every corner, while from the windows you can enjoy a charming view of the flowering gardens and the dome of the bell tower of Madonna dell’Orto. The charm of the high ceilings and the elegance of the Venetian-style flooring, which tell the story of a refined and timeless design, make this apartment a true corner of paradise in the heart of the city, where every day turns into a special moment.
