Overview
Step through the wrought-iron gates of history into **Palazzo Rovigo**, a sovereign three-story jewel nestled in the pulsating heart of Veneto’s most enchanting city. Here, where the Po Delta’s mist-kissed air drifts through cobblestone alleys, this 18th-century *palazzetto*—fully independent, wholly yours—unfolds like the chapters of a forgotten romance, its stone façade bearing silent witness to centuries of whispered secrets and grand receptions.
The ground floor, a realm of polished professionalism, greets you with a **grand sala** where light spills through towering 3.8-meter windows, gilding the air with Venetian gold. Three stately offices line the corridor like sentinels, their doors opening to hushed conversations and the quiet hum of ambition. Two bathrooms, a discreet cloakroom, and a private elevator—your silver thread weaving through the palace’s veins—ascend to realms where business yields to beauty.

Climb, then, to the *piano nobile*, where life unfolds in **50 square meters of sun-drenched salone**, a canvas for soirées or solitary reflection beneath frescoed heights. Here, a **chef’s kitchen** beckons with the scent of wild thyme and slow-simmered risotto, while two bedrooms—each a sanctuary of linen and light—whisper promises of dawns spent tracing the garden’s shadows through lace curtains. Two bathrooms, one a marble shrine to morning rituals, the other a steam-kissed retreat, bookend a **walk-in guardaroba** where silk and wool hang like treasures in a merchant’s vault.
Above, the second floor mirrors its twin in opulence, yet stretches higher—**soaring to 4.26 meters** in a cathedral of space where another **50-square-meter salone** awaits your grand piano or a library’s hushed embrace. Three bedrooms now, including a study where ink might dry on love letters or ledgers, and two more bathrooms, one tucked beneath the eaves like a secret. The heights here play with perspective: sloped ceilings cradle intimacy in one corner, while vaulted expanses invite the sky to dance across the floors.

Beyond the palace walls, an **enclosed garden**—lush with mature plantings—offers a verdant refuge where cypress shadows stretch long in the afternoon sun. Here, beneath a pergola’s dappled shade, you might sip Prosecco as swallows dip and rise, or descend to the **stone cantina**, where the earth’s cool breath preserves your finest Barolo like a relic.
This is **Rovigo as it was meant to be lived**: a palace where every floor tells a story, every corridor hums with possibility. The elevator glides between worlds—from the hustle of ground-floor enterprise to the hush of upper-floor sanctuaries—while outside, the city’s piazzas and palazzi stand as your neighbors. A rare offering: **complete independence** in the historic core, where the past is not just preserved, but *lived*.

For the connoisseur ofVenetian soul, the architect of grand lives, or the dreamer who hears music in old stones—here is your stage. **€763,203** buys not just a home, but a legacy etched in mortar and light.
