Which panorama would you pick to start the day? Stop for a second and try to ask yourself what is the first thing you would like to see as soon as you wake up.

​We opened the windows of our houses for sale in the historic center of Venice, looked at Punta della Dogana in the Dorsoduro district and observed the Rialto bridge in San Polo, we got lost in the dawn in San Marco or looked for the most suggestive corners in Cannaregio. We fell in love with a sunset from Giudecca.

Even knowing that the city is a constant surprise, we have chosen five panoramas that can be discovered in these five luxury homes for sale in Venice, dedicated to those who already feel like a future citizen of the Lagoon.

THE BEST VIEW OF THE CANNAREGIO CANAL

Those who are used to spending their lives among skyscrapers and dream of a good retreat among buildings surrounded by water, will love the majestic beauty of the Residenza Palazzo Cendon.

This bright 140 sqm apartment overlooks the Cannaregio Canal a stone's throw from the Ponte delle Guglie and, in the large living room, has a mezzanine that can be adapted as a study.

To feel like the merchants who sent letters to ancient Cathay from here.
