Experience the perfect blend of mid-century modern and Venetian charm at this stunning loft-style apartment on the Cannaregio/Castello border. Nestled in a bustling and authentic district that offers a true taste of Venetian life, this gem is just a short walk away from iconic landmarks like St. Mark’s Square and the Biennale Pavilions at Arsenale. Located on the top two floors of the building (a good few stairs to climb here), this loft-style apartment offers 70s Italian designs, a sleek and equipped kitchen for preparing regional dishes, and a glass-encased home cinema room and study. We love the Afra and Tobia Scarpa Soriana lounge chair, while drinks on the rooftop overlooking the city are a memorable way to end each day.
