Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Boasting a unique location up amongst the rooftops of central Venice, this home is ideal for those who want to soak up every second of this city's dreamy atmosphere. It features a rooftop terrace that provides some picturesque views over the surrounding city as well as of the canal below, so you can watch the gondolas meander on the waterways. Inside, the home feels cosy and welcoming – we love the mezzanine level, featuring a peaceful study area and mini library for you to relax in. It resides on the third floor, so you will need to climb some stairs to reach it – but we think the views are well worth it.
