VENEZIA : Location: Castello, Venice
The Castello district, the largest and one of the oldest in Venice, is located at the eastern end of the city. One of the most populous districts of the city has always kept the traditional "Venetian lifestyle" intact. Among the numerous monuments and works of art we cannot fail to mention the Arsenale, for centuries the cradle of the power of the Serenissima, the Basilica of SS. Giovanni e Paolo, one of the most loved by the Venetians, of S. Francesco in Vigna, of S. Maria Formosa.
The Church of the Greci, located a few steps from the apartment, is on the border between the Castello district and San Marco district. In this way the property is in a privileged position both to reach the most famous monuments such as the Piazza San Marco or the Rialto Bridge, and to enter the less crowded but equally emblematic corners of the city.
On a charming and sunny spring day we walk from Piazza San Marco to the church of San Giorgio dei Greci. Walking along the "fondamenta" (street) we are fascinated by this magnificent Gothic-style palazzo. The splendid quadrifora window on the second floor surrounded by two balconies enriched by four small lions marble sculptures, also shown in a painting from 1866, impresses us from below. The property welcomes us in a suggestives atmosphere that evokes venetian ancient times, with its marble staircase decorated with other lions marble sculptures, the arches, the painted wooden beams and the frescoes on the walls. The Piano Nobile apartment welcomes us with its splendid hall, the typical quadrifora window and impressive high ceilings with decorated wooden trusses. The adjacent living rooms overlook the canal below and are embellished by artistic leaded windows and decorated wooden beams. The more intimate rooms of the house develop along the other two sides of the building: here we find the bedrooms, the bathrooms, the laundry area and the kitchen, equipped with a service secondary entrance. The property is completed by a charming suite on the first floor, featuring a bathroom and a splendid view over the water. On the ground floor, we finally find two large storage rooms with a small toilet and an exclusive private water door: a spectacular entrance that allows you to come back home via water taxi. The location, a few steps from Piazza San Marco, and the Venetian atmosphere will make the stays of the new lucky owners unforgettable.
