Venezia, 6 Bedrooms - 496 m² House for sale

In one of the most picturesque corners of Cannaregio, overlooking a romantic canal, this detached house is a rare Venetian treasure: a masterful fusion of Gothic architecture and poetic modernism. With a noble past and timeless elegance, the home reflects a time when intellectuals, artists and diplomats gathered in luminous interiors filled with light, art and refined conversation.

Originally the home of a distinguished diplomat, the house still retains all the charm of a cultured life: gothic quadriphoras flood the great halls with light, creating the magical gibygian effect - dancing reflections of water on the walls. These moments of ephemeral beauty are among the most fascinating aspects of the property.

The interiors were redesigned in the 1970s by architect Morachiello, a student and collaborator of Carlo Scarpa. Scarpa's influence is evident in the refined architectural details: ingenious window mechanisms, fluid transitions between rooms, custom terrazzo floors, and handcrafted furnishings-all conceived with extraordinary attention to proportion and materials.
