For sale flat, city Venezia Veneto

A rare combination of palatial privacy, south-facing water views, and private outdoor space in the cultural heart of Dorsoduro.

In the most authentic and prestigious heart of Venice, just a few steps from Campo San Barnaba and the iconic Fondamenta dello Squero, we are offering for sale an 18th-century residence with its architectural charm intact, designed for those seeking the true essence of life on the lagoon without compromising on privacy or convenience.

The property stands out in the Venetian real estate scene for its exquisite independent entrance directly off the canal. The entrance level, measuring approximately 54 square meters—featuring elegant Istrian stone flooring—serves as a private foyer and houses auxiliary rooms with high potential for customization, including the technical possibility of creating a private spa, a laundry room, or a second master bathroom. This structural layout grants the property the autonomy and prestige typical of a standalone townhouse, completely freeing it from the dynamics of a condominium.

A private staircase leads to the main floor, where the generous spaces are defined by a majestic hallway featuring classic Venetian terrazzo flooring. The reception area overlooks the canal directly: the spacious living room and the adjoining master bedroom (currently used as a study/collector’s library) enjoy extraordinary natural light thanks to their full south-facing orientation and an enchanting view of the tranquil waters and the private garden of the adjacent art foundation.

The interior portion of the residence, overlooking a private courtyard, is dedicated to relaxation and socializing: it includes a kitchen-dining area with a balcony, the formal dining room, the master bedroom, and an additional bedroom that opens directly onto a terrace of approximately 24 square meters. This outdoor space is a truly unique feature for Venice, ready to be transformed into a winter garden, a shaded outdoor living area for the summer, or a lounge space for a private art collection.

Strategically located along a secluded stretch of the canal, sheltered from tourist crowds yet just a few minutes’ walk from the transportation hubs at Piazzale Roma and the train station, this residence represents a rare investment opportunity, perfect both as a prestigious pied-à-terre and as a property to be included in a high-end rental portfolio.
