Apartment with a view of the canal in a Venetian building
Welcome to our apartment, an elegant, fully restored residence located in the authentic heart of Venice, along the renowned Strada Nuova, near the Rio della Maddalena, in the charming Cannaregio district. Here you can experience the city like a true Venetian, staying in one of the lagoon’s most authentic, lively, and charming neighborhoods, without sacrificing the comforts of a modern home.
The apartment is located within a typical Venetian palazzo, which has also been recently restored with full respect for its history and original architecture. From the moment you enter, you’ll sense the perfect balance between tradition and modernity: carefully preserved historical details coexist with contemporary finishes, state-of-the-art systems, and all the amenities needed to ensure a pleasant stay at any time of year.
Every room has been designed with attention to detail, using high-quality materials and solutions designed to offer an elegant, functional, and relaxing stay. Underfloor heating ensures a pleasant, even warmth during the winter, while the independent air conditioning—available in both the master bedroom and the living room—guarantees maximum comfort even on hot summer days.
One of the things that makes this home truly special is its extraordinary tranquility. Although it’s located on Strada Nuova, one of Venice’s main pedestrian streets, all the windows overlook a small inner canal. This allows you to enjoy a quiet and relaxing atmosphere, away from the constant flow of visitors, while still having everything just a short walk away. When you open the windows, you’ll see an authentic Venetian scene, with the slow flow of the water, the characteristic boats, and the timeless charm of the city’s canals.
The double bedroom is spacious, bright, and tastefully furnished. The comfortable double bed ensures a restful night’s sleep, while the television allows you to unwind after a day spent exploring Venice. From this room, too, the view opens onto the tranquil canal, creating a romantic and quintessentially Venetian atmosphere.
The living room is one of the apartment’s highlights. Unlike many homes in the historic center, it is not a walk-through room. This means that guests using the double sofa bed have a completely separate space, without having to clear the way to the bathroom or other rooms. It is, therefore, a true second bedroom, ideal for accommodating two additional adults or children in total comfort and privacy. This feature makes the apartment perfect for two couples, families, or small groups of friends.
The kitchen is fully equipped to allow guests to prepare any type of meal. You’ll find pots, pans, dishes, glasses, mugs, silverware, kitchen utensils, and everything you need to feel right at home. You can shop at neighborhood stores and cook with fresh ingredients purchased at local markets.
For coffee lovers, both a Nespresso machine and a traditional Italian moka pot are available, so you can choose your favorite way to enjoy an authentic Italian coffee every morning.
The entire apartment has been designed to offer a warm, bright, and functional living space. Every detail has been carefully chosen to create an elegant yet homey atmosphere where guests can immediately feel at ease.
The location is one of the home’s main strengths. Strada Nuova is the street that connects the Venice Santa Lucia train station and Piazzale Roma with the Rialto Bridge, running through the heart of the Cannaregio district. This means that getting to the apartment is easy, even with luggage, avoiding long walks across bridges and through narrow alleys.
The proximity to vaporetto stops also allows you to quickly reach any part of the city, including the beautiful islands of the lagoon such as Murano, famous for its glassmaking, Burano with its colorful houses, and Torcello, one of the cradles of Venetian history.
Cannaregio is probably the district that best preserves the true soul of Venice. Here, the city continues to thrive every day with its residents, artisan workshops, historic bakeries, small neighborhood shops, fish markets, and traditional bacari where you can enjoy the famous Venetian cicchetti accompanied by a good glass of wine.
As you stroll around the neighborhood, you’ll experience an authentic atmosphere, far from mass tourism, even though you’re just a few minutes away from the city’s main attractions.
In just a few minutes’ walk, you can reach the Rialto Bridge, the Grand Canal, the Jewish Ghetto, the splendid Cà d’Oro, and numerous museums, churches, and historic palaces. Continuing your walk, you’ll also easily reach St. Mark’s Square, the Doge’s Palace, St. Mark’s Basilica, and the Bridge of Sighs.
Near the apartment, you’ll also find numerous restaurants, traditional taverns, wine bars, bacari, coffee shops, and pastry shops where you can savor Venetian specialties. Whether you’re looking for a romantic dinner, a pizza, a quick lunch, or a traditional aperitif, you’ll have a wide selection within easy walking distance.
For those who prefer to cook at home, there are well-stocked supermarkets, grocery stores, fruit stands, bakeries, and delis where you can buy fresh produce every day.
The apartment is the ideal starting point for exploring Venice without having to rely constantly on public transportation. Many of the main attractions can, in fact, be reached by pleasant walks that take you through some of the city’s most beautiful spots.
During your stay, you can alternate between visiting the most famous monuments and discovering the lesser-known Venice—made up of small hidden courtyards, quiet canals, squares frequented by locals, and artisan workshops that are still in operation.
Each season reveals a different side of the city. In spring, you can stroll along the sunlit fondamenta; in summer, experience the long Venetian evenings; in the fall, discover a romantic and enchanting Venice; and in the winter, enjoy the magic of a quieter, more intimate city.
Returning to the apartment in the evening means stepping into a quiet, elegant, and comfortable space. The contrast between the liveliness of Strada Nuova and the tranquility of the small canal overlooked by the windows makes this home particularly popular with guests who want to sleep well while staying right in the heart of the historic center.
Whether your trip is a romantic getaway, a family vacation, a cultural stay, or simply a few days to let yourself be enchanted by the magic of Venice, this apartment will offer you everything you need: an excellent location, tastefully decorated rooms, modern comforts, tranquility, and the timeless charm of a true Venetian home.
Our hope is that you’ll feel at home from the moment you arrive and experience Venice not just as tourists, but as guests in one of the city’s most authentic neighborhoods. We ’ll be happy to welcome you and share recommendations on restaurants, lesser-known itineraries, traditional bacari, local markets, and the places that make Venice unique in the world.
We look forward to welcoming you and ensuring you have an unforgettable stay, filled with history, art, culture, romantic views, centuries-old traditions, and all those little details that make this city unlike any other destination in the world.
