Charming Second Noble Floor In Venice

This charming Second Noble Floor with a panoramic roof terrace is for sale in an exclusive 14th-century late-Gothic building of Venice's Cannaregio district halfway between Piazza San Marco and the Rialto Bridge.

Overlooking two typical Venetian canals a few steps from Palazzo Soranzo Van Axel, this property is located inside a building that was the home of an important doge, equipped with a double water door that allows you to reach the property by water from two canals, the wider one with the possibility of parking a boat. Its origins prior to the sixteenth century are testified by the view of Venice by Jacopo de' Barbari, in which its facade is depicted in all its splendour. Only a few additions followed between the late sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries.

Today used as a prestigious apartment reserved for the reception of an important international clientele, this property takes up a considerable surface area: 500 meters on the second noble floor, to which are added another 500 meters of attics.

Always inhabited by the Pisani family, this apartment consists of a large entrance hall, a big dining room, a bright living room with a balcony offering a splendid view of the canal, as well as an equipped kitchen. It continues with three double bedrooms, one of which with a private bathroom, and a sitting room with a billiard table. A beautiful roof terrace overlooking the canal and a total of three big bathrooms, one of which is for guests, complete the apartment. Thanks to its charm, it has been chosen several times as a venue for exhibitions of the Biennale and as a film set.

The attic, now in need of renovation, was once reserved for servants. The height of the ceilings and the beautiful window openings from the medieval era allow for excellent brightness.

The possibility of building an internal lift and a second roof terrace with access from the dormer window of the attic was granted some time ago by the superintendency, making this enchanting estate a unique object in the whole Venice.
