Venice – Six Windows on the Grand Canal

Six windows overlooking the Grand Canal, with captivating views towards the Rialto Bridge and the historic palazzi lining Venice’s most celebrated waterway.

Set on the fourth and fifth floors of a historic building in the heart of San Polo, this distinctive residence offers a rare opportunity to create a private Venetian home in an extraordinary waterfront setting.

The principal reception rooms face directly onto the Grand Canal, where natural light, elegant proportions and uninterrupted views of the passing boats create an atmosphere that is unmistakably Venetian. Two of the six windows feature small balconies, bringing the experience of the canal even closer.

With a cadastral area of 191 sq m, the property extends over two interconnected levels. The main floor comprises a series of reception rooms, a separate kitchen, bedrooms and a bathroom. Traditional Venetian terrazzo flooring and timber windows retain elements of the property’s original character.

An internal staircase leads to the upper level, where a collection of attic rooms and ancillary spaces offers further possibilities within their existing planning designations.

A private terrace and an exclusively used roof area provide a more secluded perspective over Venice’s rooftops.

Requiring comprehensive renovation, the residence presents an exceptional opportunity to create a bespoke home, combining contemporary comfort with the enduring character of Venetian architecture.

The apartment is reached by stairs to the fourth floor, with no lift.

Just moments from Rialto Bridge, the historic market and the city’s principal water transport connections, this is a property defined by something truly difficult to replicate: six windows directly onto the Grand Canal and a remarkable connection to the heart of Venice.
