Property 193716

Location and Surrounding Area

Located on the third floor of a gorgeous palazzo in the center of Venice and steps from the most exclusive dining, shopping and entertainment options, this unique apartment is the perfect place for a stylish break in one of the most beautiful cities in Italy. Property 193716 overlooks the Grand Canal with far-reaching views over the lagoon. The living room and the master bedroom have incomparable views over Venice’s Grand Canal, the Santa Maria della Salute Basilica and the Punta della Dogana Museum.

This improbable canal city of lacy Gothic palaces built on mudbanks amid the tidal waters of the Adriatic Sea is totally unique. Once a powerful commercial and naval force in the Mediterranean, Venice has found a new role in the modern age. The palazzi have become museums, shops, hotels, and apartments, while the convents have been turned into centers of art restoration. These days there is barely an off-season, though visiting in winter give a good chance of finding pockets of this magical city that still escape the crowds.

Walking through Venice is always wonderful, and taking the 30-minute walk from the train station will help you get acquainted with the city’s maze of streets and canals. Fear not, you will not have to worry about getting lost. The palazzo is not far from San Marco, and the frequent signs leading to the main square will help guide you. Piazza San Marco is the main square in Venice, so when the Venetians talk about the piazza, you know they are referring to San Marco.

Admire the grandeur of the Venetian Republic at the former residence of the Doge and the seat of Venetian government, the Ducal Palace. Although the Bridge of Sighs might not take your breath away, its gigantic halls, sculptures, and paintings surely will. The Fenice, regarded as one of the best opera theaters in the world, is within five minutes' walk from the palazzo. You can visit the theater during the daytime hours without seeing a show. During the day, you can take a tour of the theater without attending a performance.

On the opposite end of the Basilica San Marco, the Correr Museum is set within buildings dating from the Napoleonic era, which ended the powerful reign of the Doges. These spectacular interiors host exhibits on the art, culture, and history of Venice. Guarding the entrance of the Grand Canal across from the palazzo, Madonna della Salute, the iconic Venetian church, was built to commemorate the end of the plague and sits on more than 100,000 wooden poles.

Property 193716 is about 10 km from Venice Marco Polo International Airport, 131 km from Verona Villafranca Airport (also known as Valerio Catullo Airport), 164 km from Bologna Guglielmo Marconi Airport, 270 km from Milan Linate Airport and 316 km from Milan Malpensa Airport. The palazzo where the apartment is located overlooks the Grand Canal and is just a few minutes from Venice’s main square, Piazza San Marco.
