Exclusive Private island in the Venice lagoon

An exceptional opportunity to secure a private island in the Venetian Lagoon, offering complete tranquillity and privacy.

Located in the north of the Lagoon, an area known for its magical natural beauty, this unique 29.4 hectare (72 acre) island sanctuary is for sale for the first time in over 45 years.

The island (isola) offers a principal villa, swimming pool, separate farmhouse (casa colonica), chapel, storage buildings, five boats, boathouse, pontiles, mooring for up to five further boats, and prestigious boat moorings across the Lagoon. This exceptional retreat also provides a private vineyard, orchard, olive grove, kitchen garden and newly installed ‘technological centre’ to monitor and manage the island’s water, irrigation, and energy.

The historic main villa lies among extensive mature gardens and terraces, with a divine salt-water swimming pool, gazebo, and boat house. The villa itself features a large open plan and spacious light-filled living room, large chef’s kitchen, a dining room for up to fifteen people, and nine bedrooms, all with private facilities. A classically Venetian ‘altana’ roof terrace offers stunning views.

The villa’s grand veranda/terrace, looking over the pool and land beyond, easily accommodates large groups for dining, a huge open-fire rotisserie and grill, providing a natural focal point. A second terrace provides a quiet, more intimate space, while the large swimming pool, with stunning teak deck, gazebo and loungers is perfect for relaxing.

The farmhouse (casa colonica), located a short walk from the main villa, offers privacy, while also providing living accommodation, a large yoga studio and separate storage. 

Located in the extensive grounds of the island is a small ancient chapel, re-affirming the historic provenance of this island.

And finally, a helicopter landing area for easy arrivals and getaways.

An exceptional and magical landscape, the island is spiritually a world away from the wider world, yet Piazza San Marco and Marco Polo Airport are just short boat rides away across the Lagoon.
