Charming Apartment in Historic Venice, Veneto

Details

The glass and stainless steel elevator leads to a 107 sqm commercial apartment that combines the character of a 1500s house with a layout designed for modern living. On the second and top floor, the spaces open up with a sense of brightness enhanced by glossy light marble, the presence of glass canopies, and a dark wooden staircase that guides the internal movement with a clear and measured touch. The neutral tones of the walls, light draperies, and the warmer wood in some areas create a composed, welcoming atmosphere that is never ostentatious. The property unfolds into 5 rooms with 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, striking a balance that makes the apartment suitable both as a prestigious private residence and for a more intimate and functional city use. The open structure of some areas amplifies the perception of space, while the presence of the elevator adds a rare and tangible element of comfort. Certain details immediately capture the home's identity: the wide, well-finished steps of the staircase, the metal railing, the floors alternating the brightness of light marble with the warmth of wood, and the contemporary simplicity of the entrance door. Outside, the garden introduces an even more precious dimension in the urban context of Venice. The light stone paving outlines a private courtyard with a pergola, shaded areas, and greenery that discreetly accompanies the house. The warm-toned facades, framed windows, and green shutters of the surrounding buildings contribute to creating a coherent, intimate ensemble, with a privacy that holds particular value in the city. Opening the windows, moving through spaces flooded with light filtered by the draperies, descending into the garden for an outdoor lunch or a moment of quiet under the pergola naturally changes the rhythm of the day. The presence of greenery, the outdoor table, and seating make this space not just a complement but a true extension of the home. The interiors, too, with their clarity and continuity between different materials, support a daily life of comfort, visual silence, and simple gestures, in a constant dialogue between domestic dimension and historical context. An apartment like this finds its value in the meeting of elements difficult to unite: a 1500s construction, the second and top floor, 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, the elevator, and above all, the private garden in Venice. It is a property that stands out with restraint, offering well-calibrated spaces and an external presence that makes the home even rarer in its context.
