Corte Rossa Terrace | Apartment in Venice

Corte Rossa Terrace
A dreamy Venetian pied-à-terre boasting a gorgeous rooftop terrace in the genteel district of San Samuele in the San Marco sestiere.
Swaddled in silence within a labyrinth of antique alleyways amidst an oasis of fine palazzi a world away from the tourist trails, the charming Corte Rossa Terrace sleeps 3+1 guests in freshly refurbished surroundings set within an entirely detached property (quite a rarity in Venice!)
Overlooking a peaceful little courtyard to the fore, where an ancient ‘vera da pozzo’ stone wellhead keeps a little water fountain company beside rambling foliage that tumbles carelessly over a palazzo garden wall, this pretty terracotta pad offers 2 cosy bedrooms in bright and breezy accommodation laid over 4 floors.
Sharing its distinguished and hauntingly atmospheric central locale with Francois Pinault’s Palazzo Grassi Museum of Modern Art, the birthplace of legendary lover Giacomo Casanova, and the prestigious Grand Canal palaces collectively known as 'Palazzo Mocenigo' (once the Venetian bolthole of 'mad, bad and dangerous to know' British romantic poet and literary figure, Lord Byron), Corte Rossa Terrace offers air-conditioning throughout along with Wi-Fi, dainty balconies and a furnished terrace on the top.
Stylishly presented and comprehensively kitted out with everything you need for a fabulous Venetian stay, its tasteful and super-comfy accommodation comprises:
A communal entrance and hallway with stairs (no lift) rising to the
1st Floor
A wet room decked out in red mosaic tiling with shower, w.c. and wash-hand basin
Stairs rising to the
2nd Floor
A delightful principal bedroom with double bed, warm wooden flooring, built-in wardrobes, and a pair of glazed doors opening onto a long balcony to the front of the apartment where you can welcome in the day after a blissful night’s sleep!
A sweet 2nd bedroom with a single day bed, a single sofa bed and a pair of bijou balconies to the side
Situated in between the 2 bedrooms…
A modern bathroom in ochre mosaic tiling with shower
Stairs rising to the
3rd Floor
A light and airy triple-aspect main sitting area / kitchen attractively furnished, a central kitchenette / dining station suited to light cooking and with bar stools around, a door opening onto a balcony to the front of the apartment, and another onto a further balcony skirting the entire length of the property to the side with external staircase rising to the
4th Floor
And to top it all off splendidly… a large and very wonderful furnished terrace up on high offering fabulous 360° views across neighbouring Venetian rooftops!
Important: please note that the apartment only accepts fully supervised children over 6 years of age or under 1 year (non-walking babies) because of the internal stairs and ‘altana’ rooftop terrace.
OUR COMMENT
A divine pied-à-terre with truly impressive outside space, quietly tucked away yet an easy stroll to St. Mark’s Square.
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 Accademia Bridge / Galleries, and within moments of several osterie, the outdoor cafes of Campo Santo Stefano, a wine shop, a local grocery / delicatessen, plus a well-stocked and newly re-opened Despar 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 2 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.
