Description
Palazzo Castello Terrazza
Situated in the authentic Castello area just eight minutes from San Marco, and close to the Arsenale and Biennale, this amazing five-bedroom/five-bathroom apartment with a huge terrace stretches across an entire floor of an imposing 14th century palazzo with water gate.
Property Description
Set on the palazzo’s third floor (reached via a beautiful wide stone staircase or elevator), this highly impressive residence counts a series of spacious rooms, with good height ceilings, original terrazzo floors and beamed ceilings, all bearing testimony to the building’s glorious past.
From its privileged position, the apartment boasts a birds eye view over Venice’s stunning skyline. Copious light pours in through the massive windows on three sides, while a cool breeze flows steadily around the apartment.
One of the apartment’s most impressive features is the beautifully landscape designed terrace, giving panoramic views over the lagoon, the domes of San Marco and the rooftops of Venice. A comfortable lounge area with plush sofas characterises the space.
The apartment’s entrance opens into a large dining hall featuring a beautiful table currently seating up to fourteen guests. The space is convivial and elegant, creating the perfect setting for fun-filled soirees with family and friends.
Branching off from this central salon are a series of three further reception rooms, with double doors opening onto the main drawing room with original casement windows framing a picturesque view of Venice and the canals below. This is a bright, luminous and relaxing space furnished with contemporary B&B Italia sofas and sleek furniture.
Just beyond this room is a second, stylish dining area or studio, which adjoins a lounge/cinema/music room.
A fully accessorised kitchen with breakfast area close to the the main dining room offers a well-proportioned workspace for cooking on a small or entertaining scale.
There are five double bedrooms, each with an ensuite bathroom and air-conditioning.
A small magazzino on the ground floor can be used for storage.
The apartment has been recently refurbished by its owners, successfully combining stunning period antiques, gilt mirrors and chandeliers with modern design pieces to creating the ultimate comfortable elegant and stylish home.
