Admire the stunning vistas from the Biennale Gardens to St Mark's Square from this special home's terrace – we were lost for words when we visited. You can see so much of Venice without leaving this spot. There's a list of sights as long as your arm – we're talking Bacino San Marco, the Lido, San Servolo, San Lazzaro degli Armeni, and San Giorgio, which hosts Fondazione Cini. Hold on – we have to catch our breath – ok, you can also see the Compagnia della Vela and Giudecca, as well as Punta Della Dogana, the beginning of the Grand Canal and more. During the Redentore Festival and New Year's Eve, you can watch the wonderful show of boats and fireworks on the lagoon – this place is truly unique. That's not all of the outdoor space – there's a lovely vine-covered terrace at the back, too. Inside, you'll find polished wood floors and characterful beams, as well as more of those fabulous views from the living room. We love that the bedroom opens out onto the terrace – perfect for morning coffees. This apartment's location is fantastic, too. Nearby, a water taxi stop and the Vaporetto stop "Arsenale" will take you to Piazzale Roma, Santa Lucia train station, Rialto Bridge and Marco Polo Airport. For everyday essentials, there's a well-stocked supermarket, a five-minute walk from this incredible home.
