The Red House Company is a family business started in order to maximize a property investment in Venice. My wife and I have understood the potential of quality self catering rentals along the way of the positioning of our first apartment: “The Red House”. We decided that this could be our future full time occupation in the December 2009 and we are now managing successfully a number of properties in the historic centre of Venice.

A spacious apartment with terrace consisting of: 2 double bedrooms, 1 bathroom with bath and shower. The large open space includes the kitchen, dining room, living room, and opens up onto the terrace. The main bedroom is in in the top-floor attic and has its own small living area. With its large walk-in closet, this apartment is ideal for long stays and for Carnevale aficionados requiring a lot of space for their costumes. Located in the heart of the Castello district, the house is in a very quiet and picturesque area where you can experience real Venetian life. Via Garibaldi is close by, with its shops, restaurants, and food stores. Very convenient for visits to the Arsenale and the Giardini della Biennale.

Venice has six districts, known as “sestieri.” Castello is the most populated and most popular district of the city of Venice. Among the most fascinating areas there is Via Garibaldi, with its many shops, bars, and restaurants that open onto the street. From here, you can experience the daily life of the many residents who meet up here to chat and shop. Nearby is the monumental Venetian Arsenal, where the boats and ships of the Republic of Venice were built. Today, it is a magnificent space in which the Venice Biennale hosts some of its art and architecture exhibitions. Walking toward Sant’Elena, you cross the Giardini della Biennale, the other Biennale exhibition center. The Giardini open onto the largest green area of the city: the Park of Sant’Elena. Making your way toward San Marco, you step onto Riva degli Schiavoni, which leads you to Ponte della Paglia. From here, you can see the splendid Bridge of Sighs and can quickly reach Piazza San Marco, which is just around the corner.
