A wonderfully bright and airy apartment - tried, tested and treasured! - occupying the entire 3rd (and top) floor in a lively neighbourhood on the borders of the Dorsoduro, Santa Croce and San Polo districts. Near the Frari Church and Scuola Grande di San Rocco (2 minutes walk), Campo Santa Margherita (4 minutes walk), and San Tomà with its vaporetto and traghetto gondola ferry on the Grand Canal (6 minutes walk).

What makes this property extra special is its ten windows onto three aspects with lovely views over a small canal (Rio San Pantalon) plus its excellent position…

Food and wine shopping and a very ‘local’ ambience are to be found close by in Campo Santa Margherita and, when it comes to relaxing and eating out, you’re spoilt for choice with many recommended restaurants and bars within a 5 minute walk - including 'Estro - Vino e Cucina' just down the calle and the canalside 'Adriatico Mar’ at the foot of ‘your’ bridge.

Offering guests all the comforts of home (including WiFi, air-conditioning plus a washing machine and dryer), the apartment is tastefully decorated in contemporary fashion throughout and boasts a large open-plan main room (combining a sitting/dining area and kitchen in one and furnished with a pair of sofas, a dining suite seating 4 and a fully fitted kitchen), a double bedroom, a second smaller bedroom with 2 twin beds (which can be made unto a double - simply ask when booking), plus a spacious modern bathroom with bathtub and shower over.

OUR COMMENT

A small but popular apartment in a great spot with lovely canal views. Quick and easy access to Piazzale Roma on foot if travelling light (about 6/8 minutes). And for film buffs, very near to where the carnival scene in the 2008 film version of ‘Brideshead Revisited’ was shot.
