Description Good Energy: Venezia

We love the views across Venice from this stylish apartment's large private balcony. Housed in a former thermal power plant built in the 1930s, this home has an upside-down layout. There’s a staircase without a railing up to the terrace from the living space, so this apartment may not appeal to guests with kids or those with limited mobility. If you can handle the quirkier aspects though, we think you'll appreciate the location. The transport hub of Piazzale Roma is just a seven-minute walk away, while the Guglie area, the Ghetto and Cannaregio, with its array of restaurants and bars, are a five-minute stroll from this home.
