Oak & Ruby

Oak & Ruby: Veneto

This fabulous first-floor apartment in central Venice boasts a combination of authentic architectural features, and inimitable Italian interiors along with elements of modern design. Comprising an open plan kitchen, dining and living room – think chandeliers, wooden floors and beamed ceilings – as well as two beautiful bedrooms, this historic home is perfect for a couple of couples or small family seeking to explore this unique city, known as the ‘Pearl of the Adriatic’.

You’ll love waking up in the majestic master bedroom and flinging open the wooden shutters for views of canal and canal boats before taking your morning coffee back to bed. Prepare firm family favourites in the well-equipped kitchen and dine together beside the open windows. As the light fades, draw the rich red curtains, light some candles and chill out on the gorgeous green easy chair in the atmospheric living room.

If you fancy getting out and about, your home’s location on the Campo Santa Fosca in the charming Cannaregio district means you’re within walking distance of an embarrassment of cultural and architectural riches. Why not walk across the ravishing Rialto or wander about the magnificent Piazza San Marco? Alternatively, foodies will be delighted to find that the nearby Fondamenta della Misericordia and Riva del Ormesini offer an excellent choice of taverns and wine bars come lunch, dinner or digestif time.
