15th Century House on Giudecca

charming large private house

This divine property forms part of a Gothic palazzo on Giudecca close to the Cipriani which was the Summer Residence of the famous da Mosto family who had one of the original and most beautiful palaces in Venice. In the 18th century it became a house for ladies of many charms but dubious repute where Casanova was a regular visitor, and subsequently, an annexe of the convent of the Zitelle......today it is a charming large private house with roof terrace, courtyard and shares part of the large private garden with the five other residents of the palazzo. It is an exclusive and very discreet property which has been designed and restored wonderfully by its famous architect owners.

The property is on three levels and is currently divided into two but can easily be returned into one residence. The main floor and entrance to the house is accessed via an absolutely beautiful external Gothic staircase leading to both properties. In all there are several flexible living spaces, four bedrooms and six bathrooms, a roof terrace with panoramic views, a private courtyard and private part of the palazzo garden.

Access to the palazzo is via wrought iron gates from the Fondamenta, from where there are fabulous views over towards Piazza San Marco and through which there are wonderful views of the lagoon from the beautiful private gardens. The main part of the house is composed on the first floor of an elegant living room, dining room, kitchen with separate pantry, two bathrooms, master bedroom, with a spiral staircase leading to a second double bedroom with bathroom. From the first floor a separate spiral staircase leads down to the ground floor where there are two further living spaces, kitchen area, bathroom, private courtyard and an external staircase leading to the second floor terrace.

The second, smaller part of the house is composed of a living dining room, kitchen, master bedroom, bathroom, with a spiral staircase leading to a second bedroom and bathroom.
