Description

(Reference number: 143200) With an illustrious list of previous residents, this spectacular Venetian palazzo is the finest we've ever seen. If only the walls could speak. Rich in treasures, it's a perfect example of the masterpieces that result from blending tradition and innovation. Imagine this incredible piano nobile in its heyday ringing with laughter and conversation of intellectuals, artists and poets. With its original sparkling terrazzo floors and magnificently restored frescoes from the 1600s, you can easily envisage Casanova dropping by, which neatly brings the conversation round to the exquisite bedrooms. The sumptuous master bedroom has gorgeous pastoral frescoes, while the stunning bathroom boasts decadent dark marble and antique mosaics around the tub, perfect for a luxurious soak. The writer and philosopher Friedrich Nietzche once lived here, and the extensive library in one of the bedrooms, with splendid original wood panelling, pays tribute to him. Relax in luxury on the designer sofas or drink up the atmosphere on the magnificent terrace accessed via the elaborate art-nouveau door. This masterpiece was designed by the Murano artist Napoleone Martinuzzi, who also once resided at the palazzo. Once outside, you're lucky enough to enjoy expansive views of the canal while you sip your morning espresso – a real rarity for Venice, despite the perception. Step outside, and the majority of Venice's sights are just a short walk or water taxi ride away – make your way to the renowned St Mark's Square in around twenty minutes on foot. So with a guest book jam-packed with a host of important historical figures, why not join them? Home truths: *Use of wine refrigerator is by prior arrangement *In the third bedroom, the beautiful freestanding bathtub is in the bedroom itself – be careful about splashing too much water around, as the terrazzo floor can get very slippery * Child-friendly amenities including but not limited to a cot, highchair, stairgate, baby bath, changing table and tableware are available upon request *Your host, Pietro, is more than happy to help you arrange an array of additional services, including chefs, massages, and reservations *To access the apartment, you'll have to climb two flights of stairs and there's no lift – it's not wheelchair accessible and may not be a suitable option for those with limited mobility Thinking of selling?
