Overview
Nestled along the historic Grand Canal in the Casa Mainella, a 19th-century architectural marvel, lies Apartment Cristallo - a refined haven that epitomizes Venetian opulence. This abode enjoys an enviable position within the bustling heart of Dorsoduro, providing guests with a quintessential Venetian experience surrounded by the city's iconic landmarks.
Renowned architect Lodovico Cadorin, acclaimed for his restoration and embellishment of rooms at Venice's prestigious Caffè Florian in St. Mark's Square, lent his artistic touch to Casa Mainella's design. The result is an exquisite waterside palace that blends history, artistry, and modernity in perfect harmony.
Recently restored, Apartment Cristallo bears the hallmark of impeccable craftsmanship, innovative design, and substantial investment. With ample space to accommodate up to eight guests, the air-conditioned apartment boasts a refined aesthetic that marries elegance with contemporary comforts. Residing on the second floor and spanning the entire breadth of the Palazzo, the interior exudes chic sophistication. A palette of biscuity champagne hues, artfully contrasted with deep pomegranate pinks, sweeps through the space. Modern amenities are discreetly integrated within custom-built furnishings, creating an uncluttered and harmonious atmosphere.
The main sitting room radiates grandeur with polished plaster walls, plush sofas, and a timeless chandelier suspended overhead. Traditional terrazzo flooring meets the gaze, leading the eye to magnificent dual windows framing the Grand Canal's panoramic vista. Adjacent to this space, the stylish kitchen and dining area beckon with a sense of refinement. A dining suite for eight offers the ideal setting to enjoy breakfast with the awakening Grand Canal as a backdrop.
The apartment's layout is as flexible as it is alluring. A serene double bedroom is situated off a short internal corridor. Here, a newly decorated bathroom awaits, offering both convenience and elegance. Beyond lies a partitioned area with two more double bedrooms, each presenting its distinct charm. A separate garden-facing double bedroom/studio showcases wooden parquet flooring, a foldable dining suite for six, and a thoughtfully concealed kitchenette.
Apartment Cristallo is a delight within its walls and perfectly placed to access Venice's treasures. Stretching from the Palazzo Grassi Museum of Modern Art to the Accademia Bridge, the enchanting views are boundless. With proximity to Vaporetto stops, convenient exploration of the city's intricate waterways is assured. Apartment Cristallo presents a captivating blend of history, luxury, and convenience, making it an irresistible choice for those seeking an authentic Venetian escape.
