In a quiet street between the Castello and San Marco districts, this apartment is located within a historic building. While the home is compact and has low ceilings, it certainly has charm and character. The open living and bedroom spaces merge – so this home may be best suited to families with older children. Fancy some fresh air? Where better to have a negroni, than on the communal terrace overlooking the canal? With plenty of restaurants within walking distance – you'll have lots of choices. That said, the supermarket is just a two-minute walk away, so you can brush up on your pasta skills.
