PALAZZO LOREDAN GRAND CANAL
NEW LISTING
Maaamma Mia!... what in the world do we have here?!
Filippo and Alessandra’s adored former home where they raised their young family
Has come of age and magically morphed into a Grand Canal residence of rare beauty...
Lit by shimmering aquamarine waters that cast hypnotic, ever-dancing gibigiane light reflections upon walls recently hand-painted by renowned decorative artist Paola Angoletta and her team, and still echoing with the happiest memories of mischievous childhood laughter and many toddler milestones reached (what a place to grow up!), this astonishing ‘new’ apartment boasts 3 luxe and lavish en suite bedrooms (sleeping 6) on the 1st mezzanino floor of the 15th-century Gothic Palazzo Loredan dell’ Ambasciatore, Dorsoduro.*
Sharing the fabled waterfront with such notable palaces as Palazzo Malipiero and its sublime rose garden opposite, François Pinault’s Palazzo Grassi Museum of Modern Art and the Ca’ Rezzonico Museum of 18th-century Venice, and its landside with the many cafes, restaurants and bijou shops in and around Campo San Barnaba just a little further on, its location and pivotal position simply cannot be bettered!
Splendidly refurbished by ArchFlorence in homage to the distant travels of intrepid Venetian explorer Marco Polo with the utmost skill and sensitivity as befits a building of this pedigree, the apartment revels in its unimaginably wonderful ‘pinch-me’ Grand Canal views (courtesy of its 7 forward-facing windows) stretching from the obelisk-tipped Palazzo Balbi on your left all the way to the Accademia Bridge on your right...
Accompanied by a timeless symphony of gently lapping water that lovingly lulls you into a state of profound reverie and relaxation – it is THEN that Venice casts her spell! – lean into the pleasures of this remarkable family home where every day offers fresh delights on an unfolding journey of Venetian discovery.
Effortlessly reached by private water taxi directly to Palazzo Loredan’s private Grand Canal water entrance followed by a single short set of stairs (no lift) rising from the palazzo’s vast androne hallway, accommodation comprises:
1st (mezzanine) floor
A private doorway into a dramatically embellished entrance hallway adorned from top-to-toe in hand-painted floral chinoiserie on gold leaf and featuring white-painted timbers overhead lit by Seguso vetri d’arte light sconces from the 60s – a true feat of Italian artistry and a ‘gasp aloud’ intro to the enchantment that lies ahead!
Palazzo Loredan Grand Canal’s fabulous dual aspect light-filled sitting room where the constantly shifting sights and sounds of the Grand Canal to the fore and the Accademia Bridge to the side provide a thrilling tableau of Venetian life on the water, which you can now be part of without stepping outside your door!
Beautifully presented in gentle blue polished marmorino and boasting warm wooden parquet flooring topped with a gorgeous antique Aubusson flatweave rug in coral pinks and ecru, the room is furnished with a pair of large velvet sofas and antique armchairs for carefree lounging, an array of much-loved family heirlooms, contemporary Murano glassware by Micheluzzi Glass dotted here and there (do go visit Massimo Micheluzzi’s showroom beside the Ponte delle Maravegie near the Accademia – divine!) ... not forgetting a rather splendid, framed copy of Canaletto’s oil on canvas entitled ‘Venice: The Grand Canal from the Palazzo Foscari to the Carità’ (1740-1750) depicting Palazzo Loredan dell’ Ambasciatore at its very centre – do see if you can spot it! (note the original can be viewed at The Wallace Collection in London)
And to its side, also facing the Grand Canal...
The bold and gloriously bohemian open-plan dining room / kitchen enrobed in a mystical cinnabar red and showcasing a series of delightful Marco Polo-inspired hand-crafted ‘pagoda’ wall-paintings in gold, dark aged timbers above further enhancing the room’s already deeply opulent atmosphere, and a dining suite hosting 8 guests set upon an antique blue and ecru Chinese Peking rug lit softly by a series of pretty, oriental pleated silk lamps
Custom-made by traditional Florentine woodworking specialists Falegnameria Matulli, the smart kitchen area with marble worktop is streamlined, uncluttered and features top-of the-range integrated appliances (including the ever-essential wine cooler cabinet), a groovy bespoke brass breakfast bar with matching stools where you can keep your personal chef company**, and a cleverly angled mirror overhead reflecting the light from the sparkling Grand Canal waters beyond... it’s the ‘place to be’ for evening aperitivi – just ask Filippo!
Also to the front of the apartment and enjoying similar Grand Canal views...
The bright, spacious and supremely elegant principal double bedroom – a vision in deep amarone red velvet and eau-de-nil with white-painted beams, warm wooden parquet flooring, built-in wardrobes, an enormously comfortable double bed flanked by a pair of oriental-style wall panels, and a truly breathtaking en suite bathroom in Zoffany’s Rotherby wallpaper with contrasting monochrome marble floor and panelling, a large and luxurious shower, twin wash basins in snow-white marble lit by deco-style lamps, burnished brass fittings throughout and a rolltop bathtub in gold. Note the double bed in this bedroom can be made into twins upon request
Situated to the centre of the apartment and rather smaller in size but just as memorable in personality, the characterful 2nd double bedroom in toasty cannella and frothy cappuccino colours with a luxurious double bed, a pair of slim wardrobes, and a deluxe en suite bathroom in cordovan-red marmorino with burnished brass fittings and large shower in bookmatched marble
To the rear of the apartment and overlooking Palazzo Loredan’s tranquil secret walled garden...
A bucolic dream of a 3rd bedroom where a pair of full-height windows with Juliet balconies and a bespoke mirrored wardrobe seem to draw the garden’s greenery directly into the room, and a romantic canopied double bed in Savoy blue and tangerine soothes you to sleep surrounded by walls in Antoinette Poisson’s ‘Canton’ wallpaper (in a floral motif created from 18th-century originals), while the bedroom’s en suite luxury bathroom in deep green marmorino with marble shower sits along the private hallway just to the rear
And completing Palazzo Loredan Grand Canal’s accommodation...
An immensely charming and impactful guest bathroom in low-lit ebony and gold leaf, showcasing hand-painted chinoiserie murals and bespoke marble fittings (w.c. and wash basin only)
*Birthplace of two Venetian doges and once the home of the Austrian Ambassadors to Venice and the famous art collector Marshal Matthias von der Schulenburg and his wife, Giustiniana Wynne (a friend of Casanova).
**We’d be delighted to arrange a personal chef to cater for you and your party, a private butler and breakfast service too – feel free to ask for further details!
OUR COMMENT
Not so much an apartment as a life experience... and one you’ll hold close for years to come.
A spectacular Grand Canal property with exquisite canal views, created with exceptional craftsmanship and vision and occupying a special place in Filippo’s heart.
Situated on the mezzanine level of one of the most beautiful and historic palazzos in the whole of Venice and within a stone’s throw of an excellent variety of traditional bars, restaurants and interesting small shops typical of Dorsoduro, including the canal-side Osteria Enoteca Ai Artisti, Ristorante Bakaro, Oniga, Osteria Alla Bifora, Ca’ Del Vento, Locanda Montin and Osteria Ai Pugni to name but a few… not forgetting the locals’ favourite Cantinone Gia Schiavi-Al Bottegon for super cicheti and Bar Alla Toletta for some of the tastiest tramezzini in town!
A gentle stroll to the ‘Barca Della Frutta e Verdure’ fruit and vegetable boat moored at the café-fringed Campo San Barnaba, a well-stocked 2-floor Conad supermarket in the lively Campo Santa Margherita for all your self-catering needs, and VOV / Dimora Italia’s very own ‘A Tavola’ Cooking School offering private cooking classes, daily ‘open’ cooking classes, wine tastings and a delightful private event space on the pretty Rio Della Romite canal... simply ask us for further details!
A short amble to the glittering Zattere waterfront with its fabulous panorama across the wide Giudecca Canal, and to the Squero San Trovaso – founded in the 17th century and the oldest of only a tiny handful of working gondola boatyards still left in Venice today, where skilled local artisans continue to craft, maintain and repair gondolas by hand using centuries-old methods.
Also conveniently close to 2 vaporetto (water bus) stops – one at Accademia (beside the Accademia Bridge leading over to the district and attractions of San Marco) and the other at Ca’ Rezzonico – for hassle-free sightseeing and easy travel around the city.
***Please note that the operation of air conditioning and heating are subject to municipality regulation. In general, heating is in operation from the middle of October to the middle of April, while air conditioning is in operation from the middle of April to the middle of October. Please contact us for further information.
For arrivals between 8 p.m. and midnight there is an additional cost for "late arrival" of Euro 50, to be paid in cash upon arrival. We organise arrivals between midnight and 1 a.m. with an additional cost of Euro 100, after this time we reserve the right to accept the customer always with a supplement to be quantified according to the time of arrival.
Beds will be arranged as either doubles or twins as shown in the photos. The possibility of turning a double bed into twins or vice versa can be found in the description and must be requested at least 7 days before arrival.

The location is amazing, right on the Grand Canal, overlooking the Academia bridge. Very easy access via water and also walking, lots of things to see and do around. The hosts were very kind and responsive. Caterina had great recommendations for us to eat around, and also they helped with transfer from and to the airport and booking water taxis for us, when we had events in the evening. The palazzo is just as the pictures, even more beautiful, we had wonderful time staying there. Definitely recommend it! We would love to stay there again on our fruitier visits. Thank you!

A wickedly seductive Dorsoduro retreat with a secret garden, bedroom terraces and a quaint canal at your feet
Beyond an ancient Byzantine archway with intricate carvings in stone, lies the charming Ca’ Minore – your fantasy Venetian home.
Adopting the elegant aesthetic of its moltissimo chic owners within the serene and sleepy alleyways near Campo Incurabili, this freshly refurbished property wraps 6 guests in blissful comfort and boasts a pretty courtyard garden laced with climbing plants and trees.
Within steps of our much-loved garden apartment ‘La Baruffa’, moments from the Peggy Guggenheim and the Zattere’s spectacular canal-side views, the air-conditioned** Ca’ Minore offers 3 quietly stylish bedrooms plus Wi-Fi and a washer / dryer for convenience during longer stays.
Impeccably furnished throughout in classic neutral colours and liberally sprinkled with original artwork arousing interest at every turn, the accommodation is spread over 2 floors of the property and comprises:
• Your choice of 2 private entrances depending on your direction of arrival:
One (the Byzantine archway) leading directly into the garden from Calle Navaro (if arriving from the Zattere), and the other into the main apartment from the parallel Calle del Forno (if approaching the apartment from the opposite direction!)
Ground Floor
• A well-equipped galley-style kitchen / dining room with streamlined units, white painted beams and a vintage refectory dining table with a pair of matching wooden benches
• An attractively presented sitting room furnished with comfy seating and featuring wide bi-fold French windows opening onto your west-facing furnished garden – such a treat in warmer months and a rare privilege in Venice!
Capturing the sun from the afternoon onwards and lit by Venetian hand-blown glass and wire lanterns for magical al fresco dining beneath the stars, the garden is home to climbing plants and raised flower beds set beside castellated walls of terracotta brickwork, at the centre of which is a decorative wrought-iron water door* guarded by a pair of benign Venetian lions and fronting the tranquil ‘Rio di Toresele’ canal
A sliding door from the sitting room leads into:
• A cosy beamed double bedroom with porthole window looking onto the garden, with twin beds (which can be made into a double upon request) set beneath a painting depicting the nearby 17th-century Chiesa and Scuola Spirito Santo
On the opposite side of the sitting room:
• A handy storage / dressing room with wardrobe leading into
• A stylish bathroom with shower and a beautifully carved stone wash basin entirely in keeping with Ca’ Minore’s historical vibe
Stone steps rise up to the centre of the
1st Floor, where we find:
• 2 double en suite bedrooms, one at either end – both with double beds, beamed ceilings, characterful bottle-bottom, hand-blown glass windows and French doors opening onto private plant-filled furnished terraces which extend over the sublime courtyard garden just below
One bedroom has a smart en suite bathroom with bathtub, while the other has an equally smart en suite bathroom with shower
* Please note that the water door is not in use
OUR COMMENT
A salve for the soul in a secret garden setting, a tucked away treasure in possibly our favourite part of town…
A short stroll to the Church of the Salute, the Palazzo Cini Gallery and to the Punta Della Dogana Center of Contemporary Art at Dorsoduro’s eastern tip, and close to the Accademia Galleries / Bridge on the Grand canal plus a great choice of eating places and bars including Agli Alboretti, Lineadombra and Ristorante Riviera for fine dining, and Osteria Al Squero, Corner Pub and Cantinone Gia Schiavi for spritz and cicheti.
An easy walk to 4 vaporetto (water bus) stops – Zattere Spirito Santo, Zattere, Salute and Accademia for travel around the city (note that St. Mark’s Square can be reached by vaporetto from Salute in under 5 minutes on Line 1!), to 2 Conad supermarkets – one just behind the Zattere Spirito Santo vaporetto stop and the other at the western end of the Zattere – and to the traghetto at Calle Lanza / Calle del Traghetto San Gregorio which, during operating hours, ferries passengers by gondola across the Grand Canal to the traghetto stop beside the Gritti Palace in the district of San Marco.
Also within easy reach of the Alilaguna boat stop connecting the Zattere to Venice's Marco Polo Airport.
**Please note that the operation of air conditioning and heating are subjected to the municipality regulation. Generally, the heating works from middle of October to middle of April, while air conditioning works between middle of Aprile to middle of October. Please contact us for further information.
For arrivals between 8.00 p.m. and midnight there is an additional cost for "late arrival" of Euro 50, to be paid in cash upon arrival. We organize arrivals between midnight and one o'clock with an additional cost of Euro 100, after this time we reserve the right to accept the customer always with a supplement to be quantified according to the time of arrival.
Beds will be arranged as either doubles or twins as shown in the photos. The possibility of turning a double bed into twins or vice versa can be found in the description and must be requested at least 7 days before arrival.17 commenti -
Tucked away in arty Dorsoduro and beguiling guests with its verdant charm
Sits our sublime Venetian ‘casa’, the serene Corte della Palma…
Named after the flourishing palm trees stretching up to the skies from its expansive lawned garden (all yours!) near the pretty Rio delle Romite canal, this peaceful inner sanctum with its highly desirable address promises an exceptional Venetian experience for up to 6 guests.
Fabulously positioned just a few doors down from the famous old-school Locanda Montin and one bridge (and a short alleyway) from the sparkling Zattere promenade, the recently remodelled Corte della Palma takes its interiors to the next dimension with bold design imaginatively paired with traditional pieces and object d’art.
A million miles away in mindset from the (sometimes) madding crowds of Venice and offering abundant space to kick back and let the outside world slip by, the property comprises 3 luxurious and tranquil bedrooms with accommodation spread over the ground and 1st floors (reached by stairs).
Counting Wi-Fi, air-conditioning* throughout and a washing machine / dryer amongst its attributes along with an aura that clearly announces that this is a special place indeed, the property is reached via the ‘blink and miss it’ Calle degli Occhialeri (Street of the Opticians) and comprises:
Ground Floor
A private front door opening into the entrance hall of the house which in turn leads into…
A bright and utterly delightful open-plan main living space composed of…
A sitting area with cool stone flooring (a treat for the feet during warmer weather), a large L-shaped sofa with additional velvet tub-style seating ideal for chilling, a wall-size handmade mirror with antique finish realised by Ongaro e Fuga on the nearby glass-making island of Murano, all lit by a rare and spectacular 19th-century French ‘Pampille’ crystal chandelier
Arch-headed French doors leading to a charming wooden-decked internal courtyard shaded by fabric ‘sails’, furnished with cushioned seating and doubling up as an ‘al fresco’ sitting room when the weather is fine
A stylish dining space with a contemporary dining suite hosting 6 guests lit by a second antique ‘Pampille’ chandelier, and a glazed door opening to reveal Corte della Palma’s remarkable and gorgeously grassy 200sqm walled garden boasting a wonderful furnished paved terrace / loggia illuminated by Venetian hand-blown lanterns at night for memorable dinners beneath the stars, freshly planted flower borders beside characterful herringbone paving, an ancient and very charming ‘vera da pozzo’ wellhead that would have been used in years gone by to provide the residents of the house with fresh water, and a pair of sun-loungers with parasol on a further terrace beneath the palm trees… a slice of pure heaven… who knew Venice had such gardens?!
A modern and well-equipped kitchen with sparkling marble worktops and everything one needs for rustling up an Italian feast**
A pristine contemporary bathroom in polished marble with shower
Stone stairs rising to the…
1st Floor, where we find Corte della Palma’s 3 deluxe bedrooms, each with traditional terrazzo flooring and whitewashed beams overhead…
The restful principal bedroom dressed in pink and greys with a double bed, a Les Dominotiers Sovana Grisaille bespoke panoramic wall mural from the long-established Luise Parati of Padua, and a contemporary en suite bathroom enrobed in striking grey and white marble with shower
A splendid 2nd double bedroom with delightful garden views, a double bed dressed in shades of pink, turquoise and mustard, wallpaper from the Japanese Khroma Kimono Collection by Masureel and a separate immaculate bathroom with shower shared with…
The bijou 3rd bedroom overlooking Corte della Palma’s internal courtyard,
dressed in dramatic teal blue and Midnight Walk wallpaper from Caselio and with a (small) double bed
**Alternatively get in touch for further details of ‘A TAVOLA’ – VOV’s new purpose-designed and professionally equipped Venetian Home-Kitchen – situated almost opposite Corte della Palma on the Rio delle Romite canal, where we celebrate the Italian passion for great food, wine and good company through informal, hands-on COOKING CLASSES with menus focusing on traditional Italian and Venetian cuisine along with easy-going and informative sommelier-led Italian WINE TASTINGS – we hope to see you there!
OUR COMMENT
The rare gift of a garden and a beautifully curated home brought together in a perfect package in the Dorsoduro sestiere!
A short amble to one of the last remaining gondola workshops still in operation in Venice at San Trovaso, the picturesque Campo San Barnaba, the Accademia Bridge and Galleries, the newly reopened Ca’ Rezzonico Museum of 18th century Venice, the iconic Church of the Salute, the Peggy Guggenheim Collection, the Palazzo Cini Gallery, plus the Punta Della Dogana Center of Contemporary Art…
… Also close to a variety of fine restaurants and bars including Locanda Montin, Ristorante Riviera, Enoteca Ai Artisti, Oniga, Osteria Al Squero and Cantine del Vino già Schiavi (a favourite with the locals and home to some of the best cicchetti in town!)
An easy waterside stroll to the well-stocked Conad supermarket at the western end of the Zattere for easy self-catering and to 4 vaporetto (water bus) stops – Zattere, Zattere Spirito Santo, Accademia and Salute – for easy travel around the city (note that St. Mark’s Square can be reached by vaporetto from Salute in under 5 minutes on Line 1!)
