Ca Delle Comari in Venecia

Unquestionably one of our prettiest properties - a charming apartment that ticks all the boxes offering sweet canal views plus a terrace on top! Perched up on high above the picturesque little wisteria-clad ‘Corte della Comare’ or ‘Courtyard of the Midwife’ near Dorsoduro’s Campo San Barnaba (an Instagramer’sdream come true!), Ca’ delle Comari sleeps 6 in delightful surroundings elegantly furnished with a feminine touch. Within hopping distance of VOV’s 15th century Grand Canal Palazzo Loredan (home to the splendid Ca’ Cerchieri family of apartments), and reached by a gated external stone staircase rising from the courtyard below, this bright and cheerful duplex apartment with Wi-fi sits on the 2nd and 3rd floors of the property (no lift) and borders the dainty ‘Rio Malpaga’ canal. Newly and carefully restored, its warm and decidedly characterful accommodation comprises: · A cosy and inviting main sitting/dining room with soft lighting, exposed beams, terrazzo flooring, air-conditioning and a quaint Juliet balcony looking over the canal below · A compact yet well-equipped galley-style kitchen with a washing machine and everything required for cooking at home · Two attractive and air-conditioned double bedrooms in shabby-chic style and creamy gelato colours - one with a double bed and canal view to the side and the other overlooking the ‘corte’ with a double bed which can also be divided into twins at your request · A bathroom in Venetian red Marmorino with modern fittings and a separate shower A stone staircase to the top floor, home to - · A large air-conditioned ‘mansardine’ / lounging area with a vaguely Moroccan vibe and two fold out single beds beneath low white-washed beams - see photo gallery for room proportions · A further bathroom (this time with bathtub - please note the sloping ceiling / restricted headspace) · And steps leading up to the magical (and very high) ‘altana’ furnished rooftop terrace...
