Historic Apartment in Venice, Veneto: 580 Sqm Elegance

Details

The exposed wooden beams, the stone arch leading to the staircase, and the patterned tile flooring immediately define the character of this apartment: a large property located on the second floor of a building whose origins date back to 1570. Light pours in through large wooden windows with curved glass, illuminating spaces where decorative details, golden finishes, and a distinctly tangible presence create an intense, intimate, almost theatrical atmosphere. Even the more understated elements, such as the metal chandelier or the built-in bookcase, contribute to the continuity of spaces that seem designed to welcome, represent, and endure. The 580 square meters of commercial space are distributed across 11 rooms, with 5 bedrooms and 7 bathrooms, offering a spacious and complex internal structure suitable for a residence of significant size and presence. The second-floor location, in a four-level building, is served by an elevator and complemented by disabled access, elements that add functionality to a context of clear historical personality. Inside, the sequence of rooms is accompanied by architectural and decorative features that make the home recognizable: the ceiling with exposed beams, walls enriched with decorative work, wallpaper in certain areas, and the fireplace that introduces a cozy, domestic note. Outside, the garden adds breathing space to the property and presents itself as an intimate area, defined by light ceramic tile flooring, flower beds with vegetation, walls with decorative details, and arched windows. The presence of a stone statue and a bronze sculpture, along with the wrought iron gate and brick walls with arches, reinforces the continuity between architecture and open space, without interrupting the sense of privacy that accompanies the entire property. Days can unfold among generous spaces, natural light, and areas inviting diverse uses, from everyday living to entertaining. The garden becomes a secluded retreat, while inside, the interplay of volumes, materials, and decorative details creates a sense of depth that makes each room distinct from the next. The layout with five bedrooms and seven bathrooms allows for envisioning a private representative residence, but also a property capable of hosting with poise and comfort, thanks to a spacious and well-structured configuration. An apartment of this size, in a city like Venice, combines rarity, history, and a well-defined architectural presence. The building's dating, the consistency of the spaces, the garden, and the internal and external details make it a proposal of strong identity, suitable for those seeking an important home in the Venetian context, with recognizable character and a spatial quality difficult to replicate.
