Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Complete with a four-poster bed, gorgeous little courtyard garden, and striking original stone staircase, this beautiful home feels as though it's been plucked from another era entirely. It offers a great blend of old and new, however, as it is equipped with a wonderfully contemporary kitchen in which we can just imagine whipping up a tasty homecooked meal. The home has been in the same family for generations, and you can really feel the love and care that's gone into maintaining it. The period villa also boasts a great location within the Dorsoduro District close to the Campo Santa Margherita where you will find loads of popular local eateries, bustling bars packed with Venetians, and some cafes perfect for people-watching.

About Dorsoduro
Located just south of Rialto, Dorsoduro is a large and culturally rich quarter. The majority of Ca' Foscari (the main university in the city) is in this area, so the people here skew young and trendy.
