Set beside the Rialto Bridge, this storied palazzetto has a view few can claim – a private terrace suspended over the Grand Canal. Once home to the Dadda family and featured in a Canaletto painting, the house unfolds over three floors of frescoes, marble, and stone. Inside, art deco touches meet Byzantine capitals and antique furnishings. Four characterful bedrooms, four bathrooms, and a grand salon offer space to gather or retreat. It’s a house layered with history – lovingly restored, elegant and homely. There’s no lift, but that’s part of the charm. You’re here to live Venice, not just visit it.

About San Marco
San Marco is probably the most well-known of Venice’s main districts, and the most popular among tourists.
