If you're after canal views, this apartment more than delivers. Perch on the chair in the picture window, a glass of wine in hand, and watch the gondolas glide right past – sounds like pure bliss. The scenery is certainly a showstopper, but the rest of the apartment is just as charming. We love the wooden beams and terrazzo Veneziano tiles. And, of course, the location speaks for itself. The famous San Marco Square is a fifteen-minute stroll away, while Cannaregio's canalside eateries are also within easy reach.

About Cannaregio
Cannaregio is historically the Jewish quarter of Venice. The tall buildings in Campo del Ghetto Nuovo were built in the seventeenth century to house the Jewish Venetians who were forced into the area.
