Here for the Drama Venezia, Veneto

Property Description

Venice and elegance go hand in hand, and at this fabulous home in San Francesco della Vigna, Castello, there's more than a touch of old Hollywood glamour. Set in a typical period building, it's got everything from exquisite marble floors and high ceilings to a pretty courtyard and large, en-suite bedrooms – all topped off with some striking pieces of colourful pop art.

The home has a delightful entertaining space and a large dining table for eating inside, as well as a covered terrace so you can sip your morning coffee with a typically Venetian view of the rooftops. Less than a half-hour stroll from many of the area's big attractions, like St Mark's Square and the Rialto Bridge, it's a quiet, residential area but you'll find plenty of restaurants and shops nearby.
