Description
A Masterful Transformation from Modest to Marvelous!

On strolling through Venice have you ever wondered what secret gardens lie beyond those tall palazzo walls where trees and shrubs peek tantalisingly over the ancient terracotta brickwork…?

Well, now you can find out!

On the first floor to the rear of the beautiful 15th century Grand Canal Palazzo Loredan Dell’Ambasciatore in Dorsoduro, and with private water access and views across oleander to the owner’s private palazzo gardens, sits this hushed and high-class little haven for 4.

Decorated with a natural elegance that befits its noble surroundings (indeed the palace itself was the birthplace of not one but two ancient Doges of Venice… if only walls could talk!), and ideally situated for experiencing a laid-back life amongst the locals, simply taking in the sights, or getting gloriously lost within the tangle of Venetian ‘calli’, accommodation is both charming and cosy in equal measure and comprises –

- A stylish and compact sitting room facing the palazzo gardens, furnished in restful colours embellished with ruby-red accents

- An additional small living room with two smartly upholstered single/day beds and a TV, also facing the gardens

- A brand new bespoke and fully fitted kitchen/dining room in an attractive dove blue-grey and with seating for 4

- A delightful master bedroom in a delicious shade of what we like to think of as lip-smacking ‘zabaglione’ (!) with a king size bed and a light dusting of period furniture

- A newly fitted bathroom with restored stone archway, up-to-date fittings, extensive mosaic tiling and a bathtub with shower over

OUR COMMENT

A little piece of heaven in a Grand Canal palazzo – freshly renovated and facing a secret garden in one of the loveliest and most sought-after districts of town.

Set between the Accademia Bridge & Galleries and the Ca’ Rezzonico Museum of 18th Century Venice, well away from the tourist bustle and with lots to see and do right on your doorstep.

Within a 2-minute stroll of the pretty as a picture Campo San Barnaba (location of a number of well known film scenes, think ‘Indiana Jones and The Last Crusade’ and ‘Summertime’ starring Katharine Hepburn), along with a plethora of local bars, well-reviewed restaurants, craft shops and food shops including the renowned Pasticceria Colussi for sinfully fabulous ‘frittelle’ during Carnival! and the scenic fruit and vegetable boat moored on the canal.

Also close to the stunning Zattere waterfront with its wonderful canal views, the 2-floor Punto supermarket at Campo Santa Margherita (itself a lively hub of student and local life), and the vaporetto (water bus) stops at Ca’ Rezzonico and Accademia (the latter just in front of the VOV office!) for easy travel to the sights of your choice.

Are you a part of a larger group who'd like to stay close together at the Palazzo? Other apartments available at this prestigious property include Ca' Cerchieri Mezzanine, Ca' Cerchieri Terrace and the spectacular Ca' Cerchieri Piano Nobile and Ca’ Cerchieri Loredan.
