Description
In the Castello neighborhood, in a central location next to San Marco's Square, you'll find this charming two-story apartment located within a historic building constructed in 1862 according to the design of Engineer Giovanni Fuin. Equipped with an independent entrance with elevator and a large warehouse on the ground floor accessible from the main entrance hall, the property is part of two adjacent residential units, of which it is the secondary unit, composed on the third floor of an entrance with a service bathroom, a spacious living room, a dining room with a kitchenette, and a lounge with access to the veranda terrace offering a wonderful view of the center of Venice. On the fourth floor, there is the master bedroom with bathroom, a study, a dressing room, and two utility rooms. The two units, currently separate, offer the possibility of being reunited into a single large apartment, from which to obtain three additional double bedrooms, and further expanding the outdoor space by sharing the same terrace on both lots.
The Castello neighborhood is the largest of the six districts (sestieri) of Venice. It extends from the lively St. Mark's Square to the eastern edge of the city. This area is one of the oldest in the Serenissima and boasts a rich history dating back to the High Middle Ages. Traditionally the center of political power and home to noble families during the Venetian Republic, Castello provides an authentic glimpse into daily life in Venice. Unlike the tourist areas around St. Mark's Square, it is primarily residential, with shops, cafes, and markets reflecting the variety of architectural styles found in the grand palaces, churches, and more modest buildings. This neighborhood offers the opportunity to immerse oneself in Venetian culture amidst a fascinating mix of history, culture, and local charm, making it a rewarding area to explore for every visitor to Venice.
