Well, it’s totally obvious why this home has made our collection – just look at the stunning views of the Grand Canal from this apartment’s private terrace. It’s the perfect spot for sunset drinks, for sure. There are vistas to enjoy from inside as well, from the large windows in the open-plan living space. If you can tear yourself away from the panorama, this place is in the heart of the city, so it’s close to all the main attractions, too.

The Little Venice

Perched proudly on the calm waters of the Misericordia Canal, this home's location alone is enough reason for us to praise it to the skies. You'll find it nestled in the lively sestiere of Cannaregio, where you'll find bustling nightlife alongside authentic charm and the city's Jewish Quarter. Here, you're a fifteen-minute walk from the Grand Canal's oldest overpass, the Rialto Bridge, and even closer to the beautiful waterfront palace of Ca 'd'Oro.

Steeped in history, this home impresses before you step through the door with its elegant entrance hall and charming courtyard, brimming with foliage and an authentic vera da pozzo. Inside, it's all exposed brick walls, hardwood floors, and high ceilings adorned with exposed timber beams. It would feel like a step back in time were it not for the stylish decor. Upstairs, a wrought iron winding staircase leads to a cosy office nook on the mezzanine floor, perfect for catching up on work or letting the creative juices flow.

Between adventures, you'll love kicking back in this lavish pad. We especially love the open-plan living space, primed for relaxation with plush upholstery, a fully-equipped kitchen and large doors leading to a large furnished terrace. Spend evenings roosted here, sharing a bottle of wine as the sun sets over the Venetian rooftops.

The Velvet Merchant

Practically backing onto the Grand Canal and a ten-minute walk from Santa Lucia train station, it doesn’t get much more central than this old-world apartment in Venice. You’ve got history on all sides, with a view over the Church, Campo and Rio de San Degolà to the front and the Salizada Dei Fondaco Dei Turchi to the back. 

Housed in what was once the monastery attached to the ancient Church of San Degolà (one of the oldest in Venice), you can still feel the history of this place in the towering ceilings and traditional Venetian terrazzo flooring. Glittering candelabra illuminate grand rooms, and the sitting room is furnished with glorious Roccoco armchairs and plush leather sofas. The spacious kitchen has everything you need to cook at home, but you might not need it as the streets around you are packed with restaurants, cafés and gelato shops. 

By Candelabra Light

This apartment is close to the Church of the Madonna dell'Orto and the house where Venetian painter Tintoretto was born. Away from the main tourist areas, you can live like a local here. Back at this home, there’s a private terrace to enjoy a drink and there’s a well-equipped kitchen for when you prefer some home-cooked food. There’s a comfy bedroom with an en-suite, too, but we would say the stairs are fairly steep. Otherwise, this is a great pad to explore all that Venice offers.

Jewel by the Water

With a private outdoor terrace, unique period features and sleek modern interiors, this bolthole has a lot to like. The location is impressive too. Tucked away behind an art gallery in the peaceful Cannaregio quarter, Venice's best bits, including the Rialto, are all within easy reach on foot. It's worth noting the kitchen only has basic utensils, and there's not enough space at the dining table if six guests stay here, so it might not be the best choice if you're planning family meals. That said, you've got the pick of Cannaregio's cafes and restaurants just moment's from your door.

Venetian Living

For those seeking a central base in Venice, this apartment is a contemporary and chic option. It's set up like a studio, though Crittall-style doors seamlessly separate the bedroom from the living area. There's a small kitchen, but with eateries nearby, we bet you'll prefer to dine out. We're fond of the neutral colour scheme, too, but most of all, we're big fans of the location. You'll be a fifteen-minute walk from San Marco Square, right in the heart of the city.

Ivory Whisper

Located in a historic building in the heart of Cannaregio, this apartment is just steps from the Church of Santa Maria della Maddalena. With its market and iconic views of the Grand Canal, Rialto Bridge is also a short stroll away. Nearby, the Fondamenta della Misericordia district is packed with traditional restaurants and the San Marcuola vaporetto stop is easily reached on foot. This home’s building also features convenient private water access from the Rio dei Servi, ideal for those arriving by boat or wishing to explore Venice's iconic waterways. The apartment itself is elegant and has character features which blend seamlessly with the luxurious finishes. This home has everything you need for a comfortable stay in this beautiful city.

Watercolour Lagoon

Save for the rustic wooden ceiling beams and the chandeliers, this apartment in the centre of Venice is ideal for those who prefer their homes on the more contemporary end of the scale.

For a start, the large arched windows are nothing but generous when it comes to natural light and this welcome asset is allowed to flow about the home thanks to the high ceilings and reflective surfaces. In the living area, there's an added bonus in the shape of two Juliet balconies overlooking a quintessentially Venetian square.

Elsewhere, the furnishings are all deliciously modern, from the transparent dining chairs and leather corner sofa to the tasteful black-and-white framed photographs hanging on the walls. The kitchen, too, is plenty large enough for whipping up hearty dinners after a day of sightseeing, but there's every chance it stays relatively underused if you make the most of the canalside restaurants and trattorias that line the streets nearby. 

For a city pleasingly devoid of cars, you'll also be happy to learn that many of the major sights are just a short walk away. The Natural History Museum takes all of a minute to reach on foot and the Mocenigo Palace is a three-minute stroll away, too.

Modern Master

This amazing home is located over Venice’s Grand Canal, situated in a candy-pink Gothic ‘palazzetto’. Sharing this length of water with the sixteenth-century Palazzo Vendramin Calergi – which was the final home of composer Richard Wagner and now the Casino of Venice – this unique home offers incredible views of the waters from your living space and even one of the bedrooms, so you can start every day with that beautiful picture. 

You will enter the home via a private entrance on the Campiello del Remer – Little Square of the Rower – which is hidden from the hubbub of San Leonardo but close enough to the action to experience everything Venice has to offer. 

Your living space offers comfortable sofas with a view out to the Canal below. Plus, the partially-covered south-facing terrace features a bistro table where you can sip your morning espresso or enjoy an authentic gelato overlooking the glittering waters of the Grand Canal, and admiring the vista which extends from Ferrovia, the Scalzi and the Church of San Geremia to the right, across to the Fondaco Dei Turchi – Venice’s Natural History Museum – and to the Rialto to the left.

Stroll to the Jewish Ghetto – just a five-minute walk away – with its towering buildings, museum and rich history, or join the bustle of Rio Terà San Leonardo – just two minutes away on foot – where you will find plenty of shops and food stalls. Plus, from here you will also be able to see the Ponte delle Guglie, a historical canal bridge guarded by gargoyles.

For gondola rides, we recommend walking seven minutes to Cannaregio Canal – where there are plenty of boats to hop onto – and enjoying a trip down a different stretch of waters than the ones you’ve been admiring every morning. With sublime views and a central location that is within walking distance of Venice’s sights, this home offers it all. 

Palazzetto Acqua

Brimming with Venetian charm, this restored, high-beamed apartment is an idyllic place to call home during a trip to Venice. Located right in the heart of the city, moments from the Grand Canal, you can unwind sumptuously in between your cultural endeavours. 

Step inside, and you'll find a stunning, characterful space with traditional architecture and a contemporary design aesthetic. The kitchen is equipped with everything you could need to prepare your favourite Italian specialities -  including a Bialetti moka pot for a superior caffeinated experience in the mornings. In the evenings, enjoy culinary feasts at the sleek dining table, accompanied by a cold glass of Lison and the hum of the city just outside your window. When it's time to unwind, climb the stunning suspended staircase up to your slice of calm and sink into the sheets ready to explore the city another day. 

It's easy to tick off your sightseeing list from here, as many of the city's most iconic attractions are close by. Walk to Domenico Rossi’s 11th-Century San Stae in just six minutes, before wandering to Ca' Pesaro International Gallery of Modern Art – it's just two minutes from there. And, if you want to explore the city via water taxi, then hop on a boat at the San Stae stop - our favourite way to see Venice. 

High Beam

Sitting on the other side of the Grand Canal directly opposite Venezia Santa Lucia, this is a superb starting point from which to explore this unique city. More than that, however, it's an excellent home in its own right, too.

A little more contemporary than many other dwellings you'll find nearby, there's still a taste of tradition in the antique furnishings, the wooden doors that line the main living space and the prettily tiled terrace that lies on the other side. Otherwise, the design is fairly minimalist, with stark white walls and parquet flooring, plus a sleek kitchen that may be a little basic, but will more than suffice for modest meals.

Of course, if cooking isn't on the agenda, there's a good selection of restaurants and bars in the nearby Santa Croce neighbourhood that will keep you fuelled up. Many of the must-see attractions – including the Santa Maria cathedral and the Ca' Pesaro International Gallery of Modern Art – are easily reachable on foot, too.

A Sojourn So Serene

With its windows providing stunning low views of the nearby canals, this home is an incredibly immersive Venetian experience. We adore the fact you can enjoy your morning coffee while the gondolas glide past, so close they are practically in the living room. Design lovers will swoon over the carefully curated interior design, full of modernist pieces from top Italian brands. Plus, it also features some old-school charm – a bit of exposed brick here, wooden beams there, and even a frescoed ceiling in the kitchen. Also, its central location in Castello means it's just a stroll to the marvellous square Campo San Giovanni e Paolo and the church of San Zanipolo.
