Description
Hidden among the streets of the Rialto area are corners where time stands still, crystallized both by the secluded nature of these places and by the legends associated with them. One of these hidden courts (or "scount") is the suggestive Corte Morosina, near the house of the well-known Venetian traveler Marco Polo. Passing under a peculiar arch dating back to the 13/14th century, you find yourself in a courtyard with a medieval atmosphere, with terracotta floors and oriental architecture.
One of the palaces of the Morosini family overlooks the courtyard.
Through the covered external staircase through Botticine marble slabs and the wrought iron gate, we arrive at the entrance door of this splendid property located on the third floor of Palazzo Morosini.
Inside we find an entrance hall, a spacious 40m2 living room and a dining room facing the Corte Morosina and embellished with Gothic windows, walls and ceilings decorated in stucco with elegant floral motifs and terrazzo flooring in Venetian lime enriched with fine designs. The third floor is completed by an eat-in kitchen, a study, a complete bathroom and two large bedrooms, one of which is a master bedroom with en suite bathroom, wardrobe room and suggestive view of the Rio de la Fava. Going up the internal wooden staircase, we arrive at the fourth and top floor, where there is a second living area with exposed trusses, a bedroom, a bathroom, several closets and the marvelous panoramic terrace, ideal for outdoor dinners and lunches with family and friends. The whole apartment enjoys abundant natural light, open views and typical Venetian finishes, making it ideal as a main residence or as a splendid second home in one of the most suggestive corners of Venice.
Location description The Cannaregio district is the second largest district in Venice after Castello and is the most populated.
The Venetian Ghetto is located in this district, which can be reached on foot by crossing the Ponte delle Guglie and along the Strada Nuova, the main artery of the entire district that leads from Santa Lucia station to Rialto. This journey of about 25 minutes begins at the foot of the Ponte degli Scalzi and the church of Santa Maria degli Scalzi and ends in Campo Santi Apostoli.
The apartment enjoys an excellent convenient location both for the Church of the Santi Apostoli and for the area Miracoli, as well as the renowned Malibran theater, and allows you to reach the most important and famous places in the city in just a few minutes.
