Description Terrazzo Beauty: Venezia

This lovingly decorated flat pays homage to its setting. You’ll find speckled terrazzo floors, sparkling chandeliers and vintage rugs, while ornate mirrors and heavy curtains add to the drama. Separated by a glazed partition, the living and dining rooms are big and bold, with high ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows. The bedrooms are both of a good size and the bathroom is modern. Sip wine on the private balcony or serve up a grand meal at the antique dining table. With views out over the Venetian rooftops from almost every room, you won't be able to forget where you are, and from this location, it's easy to get around the city. The neighbourhood is a vibrant one, with buzzing nightlife, plenty of tourist attractions and great places to eat out.
