Venice, Emilia-Romagna 30124

In the quiet elegance between San Samuele and SantAngelo, this apartment with its own independent dépendance rises from the soft light that slips through serene alleys and hidden courtyards. Set on the ground and first floors of a historic Venetian palazzo, the property embraces the most authentic soul of the San Marco district, with the waters of the Grand Canal just moments away and the city moving at a thoughtful, unhurried pace. The main residence unfolds on the first floor, reached through a peaceful courtyard adorned with an ancient wellhead and an open stone staircase. Across a total of 260 square metres shared between both units, the interiors reveal generous living rooms, an inviting eat-in kitchen, three bright bedrooms the master featuring an ante-bathroom and a windowed en suite together with an additional windowed bathroom and a versatile extra room. The secondary unit on the ground floor offers a spacious living area, a cosy kitchen-dining room, an ante-bathroom, a windowed bathroom and a south-facing bedroom. A private garden, a precious rarity in Venice, blends with views over storied courtyards, while late-19th-century details, from parquet floors to original doors, infuse each space with timeless charm. Direct water access to the Grand Canal, reached via a private alley with its own mooring, enriches the property with a privilege few can claim. Life here unfolds gently, from quiet mornings in the garden to sunlit rooms that welcome slow afternoons and evenings scented by the lagoon. It is a home that bridges Venetian heritage with contemporary comfort, offering a rare sense of harmony, character and everyday beauty.
