About this property

The luxury Apartment Moresco to rent in Venice is perfectly located in the Dorsoduro, between the Guggenheim Collection and the Zattere promenade. It is just a short walk from the Santa Maria della Salute church and to the Punta Della Dogana Centre of Contemporary Art at Dorsoduro’s eastern tip, and close to a fine variety of eating places and bars including Ai Gondolieri and Ristorante Riviera for fine dining, and Osteria Al Squero and Cantinone Gia Schiavi for wine and cicchetti. It is also close to a supermarket at the western end of the Zattere, and to four vaporetto stops – Zattere Spirito Santo, Zattere, Salute and Accademia.

Facing south, the beautifully renovated apartment is accessed through an independent entrance and hallway on the ground floor, with a staircase leading up to the apartment on the first and second floors. Moorish in design, yet Venetian in spirit, the furnishings are exquisite, with designer textiles, superb hand-crafted finishes and wonderful lighting. On the first floor is the fully equipped kitchen, and the sitting room and dining area. Also on the first floor, the beautiful beamed master bedroom with a double bed, a mirrored wardrobe, and its own bathroom with Bisazza mosaic, bathtub and shower over. The second bedroom is decorated in the pale blue colours of the Moroccan village of Chefchaouen near Tangier, and has a French size (small double) bed, a mirror-and-fretwork-fronted wardrobe. The en-suite bathroom has a shower encased in lapis and clay colour Moroccan-themed tiling. 

The third bedroom is on the second floor, decorated in tangerine orange, with a double bed which can be split into twin beds on request.   A further bathroom in blue Marmorino with bathtub and separate shower reached via a quaint little ‘bridge’ with balustrade crossing over the stairway below. Last, but not least, there is a very special ‘altana’ terrace offering views across rooftops to the Campanile at St. Mark’s, fully furnished and ideal for enjoying an evening drink. Amenities include Wi-Fi and air conditioning throughout.
