Elegant Venetian residence overlooking the lagoon

In the authentic heart of Cannaregio, within a historic Venetian palazzo of extraordinary charm, lies a home that tells the story of Venice through its architecture, light and views over the water.

The palazzo is accessed through a highly evocative entrance, featuring a monumental communal staircase enhanced by decorated ceilings, a testament to the elegance and history of the building.

The apartment retains an authentically Venetian atmosphere, with spacious rooms and a layout designed for comfortable living. The heart of the home is the large, bright and welcoming living room, from which the view opens towards some of the most enchanting vistas of northern Venice. The northern lagoon can be seen in the distance, while the Canale della Sensa leads the eye towards the Abbey of Misericordia and the distinctive bell tower of Madonna dell’Orto, creating a panorama that continually changes with the light and the seasons.

The living area comprises a generously sized kitchen, three bedrooms—one particularly charming due to its attic character—and a study, ideal as a workspace. The main area is completed by a windowed bathroom with a shower, pleasantly illuminated by natural light.

But it is the spacious attic that offers one of the property’s most distinctive features. A versatile space full of potential, it can be reached via two entrances: directly from inside the apartment or from the communal stairwell. This arrangement allows the attic to be imagined either as a natural extension of the residence or, as required, as a space with its own independent access.

The property stands out above all for its privileged relationship with the Venetian landscape: here, Venice is not merely the setting in which one lives, but becomes an integral part of the home. From the windows, the water, rooftops, bell towers and lagoon form a constantly changing picture. In the morning, the light reflects across the surface of the lagoon; at sunset, the outline of the Abbey and the bell tower of Madonna dell’Orto emerges in the city’s tranquillity, while the Canale della Sensa guides the eye towards the horizon.

A residence for those wishing to experience the most authentic and tranquil Venice, within a historic palazzo surrounded by the memory of the city yet open, through its views, to the vastness of the lagoon.
