In the heart of Padua, on Via degli Zabarella, this sophisticated modern loft welcomes guests within a historic building exuding timeless charm. Once the studio of the poet Giacomo Zanella, the apartment is designed as a mezzanine, enhancing the height variations of the original structure. The surrounding area is steeped in history, just a short walk from the ancient 13th-century walls that once lined the course of the now subterranean Bacchiglione River. Guests enter through a beautiful garden designed by Giuseppe Jappelli in the mid-19th century. Upon stepping inside, they are greeted by a spacious living room featuring exposed beams from the 18th century and contemporary art, creating a harmonious blend of past and present. The living area, adorned with marmorino and flooded with natural light from large windows overlooking the garden, seamlessly connects to the open-plan kitchen, which includes a convivial island, marble and steel countertops, and top-of-the-line appliances. The salon features a large wooden table, perfect for social gatherings, and a comfortable corner sofa facing a 55” 4K Samsung smart TV. The sleeping area consists of two master bedrooms: the first with a queen-size bed and memory foam pillows, and the second, adjustable upon request, with either a king-size bed or two single beds. Both rooms are furnished with spacious wardrobes, dressers, nightstands, and designer lamps. The modern, windowed bathroom includes a glass shower enclosure, wall-mounted toilets, a washing machine, a dryer, and cleaning supplies, as well as a welcome kit with toiletries. The home is air-conditioned throughout and equipped with everything needed for a comfortable stay, including an iron, ironing board, and drying rack. Located on the first floor, the apartment is accessible via a wide and convenient staircase. Self check-in is provided through a personalized link, ensuring maximum freedom for guests. Venice is easily reachable in just 30 minutes by train, making this residence the perfect base for exploring the Veneto region in style and comfort.
