Description
NEW LISTING!
‘The fortnight at Venice passed quickly and sweetly – perhaps too sweetly; I was drowning in honey, stingless.’ – Evelyn Waugh, Brideshead Revisited
The bewitching Grand Canal ‘piano nobile’ (noble floor) of the 13th-century Palazzo Barzizza, once a ‘casa-fondaco’ * nudging the Rialto district in San Polo.
Promising an idyllic sojourn of blissful luxury and anticipating your pure delight from behind its 5 extraordinary Byzantine arches described by 19th-century writer John Ruskin in his tome ‘The Stones of Venice’, this magical new apartment is a heavenly attired haven brimming with contemporary art, bespoke furnishings, sparkling Murano chandeliers and exquisite fabrics.
Bathed in limpid Venetian light and replete with traditional architectural elements including frescos, ornate gilt cornicing and traditional terrazzo flooring, the apartment sleeps 6 guests in 3 opulent en suite bedrooms, on the 2nd floor of the palazzo, reached by monumental stone stairs **.
Blessed with picture-perfect Grand Canal views towards the Rialto Bridge and illustrious palazzi taking in bell towers, rowing residents and sleek black gondolas galore, the piano nobile can be reached via a peaceful campiello (little Venetian square) to the rear or by private water taxi to the palazzo’s private dock to the fore.
Sharing this stretch of the famous waterway with the luxurious 5-star Aman Hotel (its spa, restaurant and bar are open to non-resident guests) and promising every creature comfort the choosy traveller expects, the fully air-conditioned *** apartment offers Wi-Fi and comprises:
Landside access via Palazzo Barzizza’s main communal entrance hallway, with stairs leading up to the piano nobile on the…
2nd Floor, where we open the doors to…
A spacious entrance hallway
A guest bathroom (w.c. and wash basin)
A magnificent main central sitting room / salone sumptuously dressed in ravishing pink Rubelli silk walls with a pair of sprawling raspberry velvet sofas and a dining suite to the rear set against a beautiful Venetian backdrop of speckled terrazzo flooring and painted wooden beams, all lit by glittering chandeliers and the light streaming in from its leaded Grand Canal-facing windows
A second gorgeous sitting room with colourful ceiling fresco overhead, striking artwork all around, a bespoke Italian sofa and armchairs for lounging, and a pair of tall leaded windows on the Grand Canal to the fore which open onto little Juliet balconies
A modern kitchen with gold-and-grey-tone streamlined units, equipped with everything required including a washing machine / dryer, Magimix and Nespresso machine
The piano nobile’s 3 very special en suite double bedrooms comprising:
Situated the front of the palazzo and just off the main salone – a fabulously flamboyant and spacious principal bedroom in teal blue velvet and gold Rubelli silk with double bed, a pair of windows on the Grand Canal (one of which opens onto a bijou Juliet balcony), a mirrored backdrop / room divide and semi-separate modern bathroom with stand-alone bathtub and separate shower and w.c.
To the rear of the second sitting room – a peaceful and welcoming 2nd double bedroom with accents of ochre and terracotta, frescoed ceiling, a double bed and contemporary en suite bathroom with shower
To the rear of the principal bedroom and reached via the salone – a beautifully cosy twin bedroom in ochre and sandy shades with decorated beams, 2 single beds and a pristine en suite bathroom with shower
* Casa-fondaco – a pre-16th Century / Medieval palace that acted as both a Venetian merchant’s home and workplace / warehouse (further examples include the 13th-century Ca’ da Mosto and Ca’ Loredan on the Grand Canal)
** Stairs (no lift)

OUR COMMENT
A prestigious noble floor property with a fascinating history, beautifully renovated and presented with personality and pizzazz!
Wonderfully positioned between the Rialto area just to the north (with its famous food markets, bacari and tight network of little alleyways and bridges) and to the Dorsoduro district in the south (with its wide fondamente, antique shops and art galleries).
Within moments of all that’s happening in and around Campo San Polo, and a gentle amble to the 14th-century Church of the Frari and the Tintoretto-filled Scuola Grande Di San Rocco.
Close to 3 supermarkets - a small Coop near Sant' Aponal, a well-stocked Conad near the Frari, and a CRAI Cassa at Campo San Tomà - in addition to a plethora of shops, bars and cafes to satisfy all your self-catering needs.
Within a stone’s throw of some excellent local restaurants including the casual, parasol-shaded Birreria La Corte; the reassuringly old-school Alla Madonna; and the very famous and much-celebrated Antiche Carampane - the latter hidden deep within the silent and narrow winding alleyways but surprisingly close to your apartment… if you know the way! ;)
Also within easy reach of 2 vaporetto stops – particularly San Silvestro (very close and with no bridges to cross in between!) and San Tomà a little further away - and to the traghetto gondola ferry at San Tomà for trips across the Grand Canal to the must-see sights of the San Marco sestiere.

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

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.

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.

- 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:

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
