luxury apartment with reception room for sale Venice, Italy

Panoramic Top-Floor Venice San Marco: Canal View Residence In the heart of Venice, bordering the prestigious San Marco and Castello districts, this elegant 115-square-metre residence occupies the third and fourth floors of an excellently preserved 16th-century palazzetto. The property is distinguished by the rarity of its dual access: the traditional entrance from the calle is complemented by a private porta d’acqua (water gate) on the Rio della Guerra, allowing for direct and discreet arrival by boat or water taxi. The internal layout is intelligently arranged across the top two levels, dedicating the uppermost floor to the living space. This airy and understated room accommodates the dining area with a compact kitchen, and features five windows framing views over the widest expanse of the canal and historic façades, extending as far as St Mark’s Campanile; a sixth window overlooking the lane ensures consistent cross-ventilation throughout the seasons. The lower floor is entirely dedicated to repose and is structured into two independent wings to guarantee absolute privacy, with the principal bedroom suite and dressing area on one side, and a second generous double bedroom with an en-suite bathroom on the other. Both bathrooms feature external windows, a rare and highly prized technical asset in historic Venetian architecture. The property offers a captivating dual perspective, balancing the stillness of the historic lane with the gentle rhythm of the canal, where the water casts a natural, shimmering light across the ceilingsthe mesmerizing phenomenon known as the gibigiana. This luminous and refined home is conceived as an authentic private sanctuary, peacefully removed from the city's busier thoroughfares. Epi/G (409 Kwh/Kwh/Mq) Rif.
