Description
Welcome to Casa Zulian, a typical penthouse in the heart of Venice featuring 2 panoramic roof terraces.
BUILDING AND ENTRANCE
The building is accessed by skirting the church of San Zulian and its 16th century white marble facade, designed by Jacopo Sansovino.
This church will enhance the panoramic experience by offering a continuous and direct glimpse of Sansovino's work from several windows of the penthouse.
The entrance door is located in a well-kept space illuminated by a lamppost. You do not enter neither from an overcrowded street nor from a dark alleyway. If you are familiar with Venice you will easily understand this lucky feature.
INTERIORS
On the 3rd floor there is the entrance, with a wardrobe and a bench for storing coats and shoes. A large window overlooking San Zulian ennobles the entire entrance area.
Once on the main floor, an elegant hallway leads to the spaces:
- Main living room with a refined bookcase, enhanced by high ceilings and views of the wooden trusses
- Mezzanine, now used as a TV room, as well as a laundry room with a service bathroom
- First panoramic roof terrace
- Sleeping area with 2 bedrooms, walk-in wardrobes and a bathroom
- Living area with kitchen and access to the second roof terrace
- Suite with the master bedroom, a bathroom and a further room entirely used as a walk-in wardrobe.
THE DOUBLE ROOF TERRACES AND THE PANORAMIC VIEW
“Altana” stands for “wooden roof terrace”. It is a quintessential architectural element in a Venetian house.
Casa Zulian has 2 “altane”, both with an exclusive panoramic view on roofs and monuments of Venice.
They are large enough to accommodate a dining table, or a lounge space or some deck chairs for sunbathing. They are also equipped with a cold / hot water point, making it possible to shower as well.
From the altane you can admire not only San Zulian and the majestic site of San Marco, but also the “Moors” statues at the top of the clocktower and a lot of other domes and campaniles of Venice.
Imagine to experience an Italian happy hour or a dinner with friends, in your private space on top of the roofs, surrounded by the setting of Venice. This is simply priceless.
THE CONSERVATIVE RESTORATION
The property has undergone a careful restoration, with attention to structural and aesthetic conservation and materials selected to last over time.
The common stairwell has also been completely restored (and this is not a common element for a building in Venice).
CONCLUSION
Casa Zulian is ideal for a lover of Venice who is looking for a typical and panoramic Venetian property. Its rooms can be adapted to different personal needs (study / gym / guest rooms, etc).
Casa Zulian was made from a native Venetian for itself, so now you will be able to experience the authentic Venetian way of life.
This penthouse is the private space in which to spend time by yourself or with guests and to admire Venice from high above.
