Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
You'll find this cosy apartment in the buzzing Dorsoduro district, right on the side of the Rio delle Terese canal. It's easy to explore Venice in this central location, whether on foot or by water taxi. Even better, your host can help arrange tours and other excursions to take your visit to the next level. The bright red living room is the perfect spot to nurse a glass of wine or curl up with a book, while the kitchen has everything you need to rustle up home-cooked dinners. As the owner is a 'marangon' (carpenter), many pieces are handcrafted or carefully restored.
