Huge design apartment in the center of Venice, with private courtyard

Located in one of the most central and authentic areas of Venice, this spacious and quiet apartment offers the perfect blend of modern comfort and timeless Venetian charm.

Tucked away in a peaceful courtyard just steps from the San Tomà vaporetto stop, the apartment is an oasis of tranquility in the heart of the city. The San Tomà area, within the Dorsoduro district, is one of the most cherished by Venetians themselves—an area that has retained its authentic character despite its central location. Here, you’ll be surrounded by artisan shops, traditional bakeries, charming cafés, and local “bacari” (Venetian wine bars), as well as important cultural landmarks such as Cà Foscari University and the Gallerie dell’Accademia.

The apartment is located on the ground floor of a quiet and well-maintained residential building and features two spacious double bedrooms, each with its own private en-suite bathroom—an ideal layout for families, couples, or friends travelling together who value privacy and comfort. One of the bathrooms includes a bathtub, perfect for a relaxing soak after a day spent exploring the city’s canals and alleyways.

The living area is cosy, functional, and tastefully furnished. The open-concept kitchen is fully equipped with modern appliances, including a refrigerator, oven, dishwasher, Nespresso machine, kettle, and cooking utensils—perfect for preparing anything from a quick breakfast to a full Venetian dinner. A large dining table comfortably seats four to six people, while the adjacent sofa offers a cosy spot to unwind, read, or watch TV after a long day. Soft lighting and carefully selected decorative touches give the space a warm and welcoming atmosphere. Each bathroom is equipped with a sink, a very large shower, and a bidet."

One of the highlights of the apartment is the private courtyard, a rare luxury in Venice. At the centre of the courtyard is an ancient Venetian well—now purely decorative—which adds character and charm to the space. Here, guests can enjoy breakfast al fresco, read a book in the afternoon sun, or sip a glass of wine under the stars. The courtyard is also a safe and pleasant area for children to play or simply to enjoy a moment of peace outdoors.

Despite its central location, the apartment is incredibly quiet, as it’s slightly hidden from the main tourist crowds. Its location ensures restful nights, even during peak season. In just a few minutes on foot, you can reach Campo San Polo, the Basilica dei Frari, Campo Santa Margherita, and the Rialto Bridge. A short walk across the nearby Accademia Bridge takes you to the San Marco district and St. Mark’s Square itself.

To ensure your comfort year-round, the apartment features underfloor heating in the winter and air conditioning in all rooms during the summer months. High-speed Wi-Fi, a washing machine, a drying rack, an iron and ironing board, and premium bed and bath linens are all included to ensure a carefree stay. We also provide basic toiletries, a hair dryer in each bathroom, and cleaning supplies, so you’ll have everything you need from the moment you arrive.

The two bedrooms are arranged as follows:

Master bedroom: Queen-size bed, en-suite bathroom featuring a full bathroom: bathtub and shower, reading lamps, and blackout curtains.

Second bedroom: Queen-size bed (which can be joined to form a double bed upon request), en-suite bathroom with shower, writing desk, and ample storage space.

Whether you’re visiting Venice for the first time or returning for another magical experience, this apartment offers a truly unique opportunity to live like a local—without sacrificing comfort, style, or convenience.

For art lovers, the apartment is within walking distance of the Peggy Guggenheim Collection, Palazzo Grassi, and various artists’ studios. For families, the quiet streets and lack of cars make Venice ideal for children, and the apartment provides a safe and practical base for exploring the city.

And for digital nomads or remote workers, the peaceful setting, reliable internet connection, and inspiring surroundings make it an ideal home office away from home.
