Giudecca Warehouse with Pool

One-of-a kind property for sale in Venice, Giudecca Island.

A wonderful wood-enrobed warehouse converted into a 2 storey, of approximately 400 sq.m.,  accommodation with three double bedrooms.

The property is very stylish and charming, and offers a quietly luxury living and plenty of leisure space.

It has been reinvented with exceptional originality and the utmost respect for the materials used in its original construction – think gorgeous bare brickwork and pine wood from the Dolomite  later supplemented with chestnut wood from Galicia in northern Spain.

A discreet little doorway, right on Campo Del Redentore which opens to reveal a magical Mediterranean-style secret courtyard garden – a patch of pure bliss amidst the paving stones of Giudecca planted with lemon trees, olive trees, jujube, pomegranate and vines, and delicately scented with jasmine, rosemary and assorted herbs

A further entrance leading into the main air-conditioned warehouse space with its sensational vaulted and galleried open-plan living and leisure area – a triumph in tawny timber and handsome high-end neutrals comprising a:

• 12m x 3m indoor and oxygen maintained swimming pool running along the centre of the space (1.10m depth throughout and with a countercurrent swimming device plus a sculptural elephant water fountain at one corner. The swimming pool water is always some degrees lower in temperature than that of the house.
• A sitting & relaxation area along one side with subtle lighting and a series of inbuilt banquettes for poolside lounging, tables, chairs and further seating along the opposite side of the pool.
• A home cinema / TV area offering satellite channels and Netflix located at the farthest end of the space and open to the pool area
• A service bathroom with shower and turkish bath and sauna.
