Priuli @ Locappart - Bright & Design

Priuli is a 55m² apartment, design and completely renovated, combining perfectly vintage furnitures and very modern convenience. It's very bright and spacious . The building is contemporary style, located in a quiet neighbourhood near Santa Lucia.

This third-floor, elevator-accessible apartment (55 m²) was recently refurbished from top to bottom. It is bright and spacious and features a perfect blend of antique furniture and ultramodern utilities.

The building (a 1930s thermal power plant that was closed down in the early 1980s) was, in 2010, converted into luxury designer apartments that feature recycled materials and above all, conserve the original structure—a requirement in Venice. It is a prime example of biotecture.

With its bridges, grandiose churches, and the Grand Canal, the neighbourhood surrounding the city’s train station represents Venice perfectly. Behind the station, old industrial buildings have been transformed into stylish private apartments.

The historic Jewish Ghetto and its magnificent synagogues are only 5 minutes away on foot. Today it is a typical working-class neighbourhood with narrow streets, wells, and bridges between the massive Campo del Ghetto Nuovo that overflows with outdoor cafés and terraces, and the Cannaregio Canal itself where you can catch a vaporetto. Between the train station and the ghetto, the Savorgnan public gardens are a veritable haven of peace—and one of the few spots in Venice where you can take a break surrounded by greenery!
Strada Nova—the throughway that divides Cannaregio and the Rialto district—is home to the San Leonardo market that is bustling from morning to night.

The apartment is situated on a quiet street frequented by locals and the occasional student. You can catch most vaporetti from the station, which is only a 5-minute walk away.
