Rio di San Giovanni Laterano


I have always loved this narrow house, surrounded by water on three of its sides, right near San Giovanni and Paolo, between the twin canals of the Rio di San Giovanni Laterano...

What a fantastic house! It would be great for parties and people watching or just simply looking out the windows!

After reading the above comments, I do believe that that little house is going to get mighty crowded if we all get our wish. I want to live there, too!

I would join you all too..! A really wonderful house, a breathtaking setting. And a charming, so homogeneous and soft color's undertone, being at the same time strong expressive, from the deep black on the bottom right, to the deep white on the top.

Oh, gosh, what a beauty ~ the whole view, as well as this particular house. As it's already cramped, perhaps I can tag along for coffee nearby. :)

It takes me back to Venice. I can smell the aroma of the air... feel the sea breeze... taste the espresso... and feel again of being alive!
