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.

An ancient canal-side palace within minutes of St. Mark’s Square.
Hidden away on its landside within the secret courtyard ‘Corte Rubbi’, on the Castello/San Marco border, this once forgotten building has been magically transformed by restorers with vision and interior design savoir-faire.
Standing at the gondola-busy T-junction of the San Zulian and Bareteri canals, and encapsulating 8 dazzling apartments of varying colourway and size, the newly launched Corte Rubbi is but a stroll to some of Venice’s most iconic attractions and countless beguiling vistas on which to feast your eyes!
Easy to find (when you know the way!) from the shop-lined Campo San Bartolomeo and Salizada San Lio on one of Venice’s canal-encircled ‘islands within an island’, these imaginatively furnished apartments offer Wi-Fi and a communal laundry room and are spread across 4 floors with all upper floors reached by stairs.
Highly contemporary in style, air-conditioned** throughout and ranging from a charming studio for 4 to a fabulous penthouse with rooftop terrace, Corte Rubbi’s 10 apartments sleep up to 42 guests if booked exclusively and include:
Corte Rubbi 10 - sleeping 6 - on the 3rd Floor reached by stairs .Upon previous request we can organize a porter service with a surcharge.
A handsome and heavily beamed 3-bedroomed beauty comprising:
A spacious and pared-down main living / dining room – delightfully decked out in shades of turquoise and magenta and with a slight Moroccan vibe – home to warm wooden flooring underfoot, wooden timbers overhead, a sofa, a dining suite and a well-equipped kitchenette suited to light cooking
A gorgeous principal bedroom with a double bed and canal views to the fore with its own luxurious en suite bathroom with sloping beamed ceiling and sunken bathtub with steps leading down
A 2nd attractive double bedroom decorated in Cole & Son’s Procuratie e Scimmie wallpaper with a double bed and painted beams
A restful twin bedroom with 2 single beds and sloping beamed ceiling, elegantly dressed in sage green and scarlet
A 2nd luxurious bathroom with chromotherapy shower, also with sloping ceiling
Important – Please be sure to take a look at the photo gallery to better appreciate the restricted headspace in certain areas of this apartment
Are you part of a larger group who’d like to stay close together but in separate apartments? We offer 9 other apartments within this palazzo: Corte Rubbi 1, Corte Rubbi 3, Corte Rubbi 5, Corte Rubbi 6, Corte Rubbi 7, Corte Rubbi 8, Corte Rubbi 9, Corte Rubbi 11, Corte Rubbi 5514
OUR COMMENT
A handsome 3-bedroom beauty brimming with style and joie de vivre, in a vibrant, central and endlessly fascinating part of town.
A few steps away from the 18th-century church of Santa Maria Della Fava and close to a host of famous sights and attractions including the atmospheric Venetian time-capsule that is the Querini Stampalia, the fabulous Palazzo Grimani just off Campo Santa Maria Formosa, the Church of San Zaccaria with its crypt and wonderful Bellini altarpiece, and Vivaldi’s La Pietà on the sunny Riva degli Schiavoni waterfront…
… A short stroll towards a very sedate pace of life lived out amongst the tranquil calles, canals and green spaces of Castello with its laid-back and very genuine neighbourhood vibe…
… Or rise with the lark to embrace the atmosphere of St. Mark’s Square (‘the Piazza’) gloriously near-empty before its visitors arrive… or visit at night when the orchestras of Quadri and Florian play*, the bells of the Campanile (bell tower) toll, the marble of the Doge’s Palace glows, and the mosaics of the Basilica shimmer in the darkness…
Close to a host of shops, restaurants and bars including the much-lauded Alle Testiere, the upmarket Bistrot de Venise and Alle Corone of the nearby Hotel Reali, the charming Osteria Al Portego (delicious cicheti!) and Osteria Ae Sconte, plus Ristorante Santa Maria Formosa with its tables on the campo.
Also within easy reach of 4 well-stocked supermarkets – a Despar at Calle al Ponte de la Guerra, a COOP at Salizada San Lio, and a COOP and a Despar on the Riva del Carbon (near the Rialto Bridge), along with a ‘Vino Sfuso’ (wine on tap) shop on Calle del Mondo Novo and a greengrocer’s stand at Campo Santa Maria Formosa.
Within a short stroll of the vaporetto (water bus) stop at Rialto for exploring the city, the ‘Traghetto’ gondola ferry carrying passengers across the Grand Canal between the Riva Del Carbon and San Silvestro in the San Polo district and the vaporetto (water bus) stop at San Zaccaria for trips around town, visits to the Lido beaches and to the Biennale Pavilions at Arsenale and Giardini.
*Note that performances are dependent on weather and season
**Please note that the operation of air conditioning and heating are subjected to the municipality regulation.

Created with a generous serving of Venetian verve and va-va-voom, we proudly present apartment Ca’ Della Luce.
Peacefully positioned in the refined, palazzo-packed parish of San Samuele close to the Grand Canal in the district of San Marco, and flooded with light as befits its name along with an elegance that reveals its owners’ taste and designer’s talents, the apartment sleeps 6 within the top 2 floors of the property reached by stairs.
Crowned with a furnished ‘altana’ roof terrace * all of your own enjoying exceptional vistas across the surrounding terracotta rooftops to some of Venice’s most iconic landmarks including the domes of Salute and St. Mark’s Campanile, Ca’ Della Luce offers the convenience and comfort of Wi-Fi and air-conditioning throughout while an interplay of choice linens and velvet, Farrow & Ball wallpapers, custom-built furnishings and well-chosen upholstery breathes life into its traditional framework.
Following hot on the heels of our popular Ca’ Dell’ Opera, accommodation commences on the 3rd floor and comprises:
- A spacious sitting/dining room dressed in a cool and classic palette of muted neutrals brightened by splashes of teal and Tiffany blue against a backdrop of white painted beams and burnished wooden parquet.
- A small up-to-date and well-equipped kitchen to the side with dappled grey marble work surfaces and Miele oven.
- Two delightful bedrooms – the master in Farrow & Ball’s ‘Lotus’ Damask print with double bed and a twin decked out in Farrow & Ball’s ‘Tessella’ with 2 singles.
- A contemporary-style bathroom decorated entirely in Italian mosaic with bathtub and hand held shower.
Stairs rising to the 4th floor:
- A characterful studio doubling up as an additional 3rd bedroom with double bed, its own en-suite bathroom with shower (again in mosaic), plus steps giving rise to the…
Furnished ‘altana’ roof terrace * – a magical place for whiling away your downtime and soaking up the atmosphere of this most special of towns.
Important: please note that the apartment only accepts fully supervised children over 6 years of age or under 1 year (non-walking babies) because of the internal stairs, ‘altana’ rooftop terrace.
OUR COMMENT
A comfortable and light-filled beacon of style with a fabulous ‘altana’ in San Samuele.
Rubbing shoulders with some of the city’s most coveted residential addresses and ideally placed for the first time or regular visitor to Venice who appreciates peaceful surroundings yet who’d like to stay close to many of Venice’s star attractions.
Within a stone’s throw of the Palazzo Grassi Museum of Modern Art, and within moments of several osterie, the outdoor cafes of Campo Santo Stefano, a wine shop, a local grocery/delicatessen, plus a well-stocked Punto supermarket just a little further on.
Seconds to the area’s antique shops and galleries including that of interior designer Chiarastella Cattana - a discreetly sophisticated showroom of fine and distinctively woven textiles and furnishings and, for scent-lovers, the Venice outlet of the famous Florentine ‘Officina Profumo Farmaceutica di Santa Maria Novella’ - one of the oldest pharmacies in the world and one time fragrance maker to Catherine de’ Medici.
Also close to two vaporetto (water bus) stops - San Samuele and Sant’ Angelo - for foot-friendly exploration of the city, and moments to the local ‘traghetto’ at Garzoni which, during operating times, ferries passengers by gondola across the Grand Canal to San Toma in the district of San Polo.
* Please be aware that the ‘altana’ is only accessible via the studio/3rd bedroom
** Are you a part of a larger group who’d like to stay close together but in separate apartments? We offer several apartments in very close proximity: Ca’ Grassi 1, Ca’ Grassi 2, Ca’ Grassi 3, Ca’ Del Teatro, Ca’ Dei Colori 1 and Ca’ Dei Colori 2
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.
