Freshly renovated, this beautiful apartment is the kind of Lisbon home we daydream about. In a period building typical of this ancient part of the city, it's been lovingly brought into the 21st century by owners who clearly care about the quality of the finish. The characteristic Pombalina wooden cage of the stone building shows itself in the open-plan living space. Invented after the great earthquake of the 1750s, it's an architectural structure to ensure stability. It also happens to look really cool. You may also spot some other historic features in the home – an old salting trough in one of the bathrooms, a huge stone fireplace in a bedroom and antique recovered tiles made into large panels that adorn the corridors. At the same time, it's a smart, modern home with luxurious furnishings, and an on-trend black and marble kitchen. We love the views over Lisbon's rooftops from the balcony too. When you're ready to explore you'll be a five-minute walk to Praça do Comércio, which opens up to the Tagus river. The stylish neighbourhood of Chiado is a ten-minute walk away, as are the Ribeira Market and Campo das Cebolas.

Poetic Form

If browsing stylish boutiques is your bag, then this home in chic Chiado is just the ticket. You'll also find stylish restaurants, and the iconic 1700s Bertrand Bookstore here. It's just a two-minute stroll to Praça Luís de Camões with its statues of Portuguese literary icons, while the National Theatre of São Carlos is five minutes on foot. Other attractions nearby include Lisbon Cathedral, under a twenty-minute walk and the Elevador De Santa Justa, a ten-minute saunter.

Back at this lovely apartment, take in the fabulous views over the River Tagus with a glass of rosé wine – we love the traditional tiles here too. Inside, an array of plants give this place a homely feel. Enjoy a pastel de nata at the dining table or relax on the comfy grey sofa after all that sightseeing. This home is perfect for a couple or friends looking for a sophisticated setting.


Chiado Chic

Historic Alfama, with its medieval warren of streets, is just a twelve-minute walk from this modern home, while the chic boutiques of Chiado are a fifteen-minute saunter. The harbour-facing square, Praça do Comércio, on the other hand, is a mere four-minute stroll and is surrounded by an array of eateries – your host can make restaurant reservations for you if you wish. It's the same walking distance to Sé de Lisboa, the city's beautiful cathedral – although you don't have to go anywhere to admire it, you can see it from this stylish apartment's windows. It's plain to see this gorgeous home belongs to a designer. The generous space is furnished with standout pieces of furniture and fabulous modern art. If you don't fancy eating out, whip up a Portuguese feast in the kitchen and enjoy it at your dining table – this place is perfect for entertaining.

The Creative Process

Laidback and homely, this apartment in the heart of bustling Bairro Alto is the perfect landing pad for a family or group of friends. After a restful snooze in the comfortable bedrooms, come together around the dining table to hash out the day’s plans over a light breakfast, rustled up in your fully-equipped kitchen. Finish the dregs of your coffee on the Juliet balcony then pull on your walking shoes and hit the streets. Follow Calçada do Combro into the heart of Chiado for a spot of shopping and a visit to the Livraria Bertrand – the world’s oldest bookshop. 

Hop on the iconic Tram 28 to Praça do Comércio for unfettered views of the Tagus River. When you’re feeling peckish, fill up on Portuguese fare in the Time Out Market or seek out a traditional tasca for a no-fuss, hearty lunch. 

Anjo da Guarda

With the Praça do Comércio and Tagus riverfront right on your doorstep, you'd be hard-pushed to find a better location for first-time visitors wanting to explore the city. The recently renovated building boasts a concierge and lift and new windows that do an excellent job of blocking the street noise from the busy Baixa neighbourhood outside. The living room’s bold artwork and striking petrol blue velvet sofas work well with the bright and open space. Step out, and you'll find yourself right in the heart of Lisbon's most central and liveliest neighbourhood, with some of the city's most exciting shops and cafes right on your doorstep. Just around the corner, you'll find the elegant Praça do Comércio. Elsewhere, you'll find the beautiful gothic ruins of Convento do Carmo, sumptuous food at Time Out Market, and the fascination Museu do Fado no more than fifteen minutes away. Finally, for breathtaking views over the city's terracotta roofs, hop on the iconic number 28 tram and trundle through Alfama and up to the hilltop neighbourhood of Graça.

The Fisherman

This laid-back home in Chiado is perfect for those looking to be in the heart of Lisbon’s action. Surrounded by some of the city’s best sights, this unpresumptuous home allows its open spaces and huge windows do the talking, with a minimalist design aesthetic that feels as chic as it does calm. We love the living room’s tall corniced ceilings and the large shuttered windows that make the whole space feel bright. The kitchen, too, is a masterclass in elegant simplicity, concentrating on natural textures – a marble countertop and hardwood floors – and featuring a long table that just begs to be gathered around for morning and evening feasts. The two pared-back bedrooms complete the home, along with an azulejo adorned bathroom that gives the apartment a touch of Portuguese traditionalism. Away from the apartment, you’re just a seven-minute walk from the bustling Time Out food market, a fifteen-minute walk from Praça do Comércio and a twenty-five-minute stroll from São Jorge Castle. Bairro Alto is also right around the corner, five minutes away, with its bohemian cobbled streets packed with hip boutiques, quirky bars and intimate fado bars.


Amber Lily

Look in any direction at this home and you’ll have the Tejo river or São Vicente de Fora waiting for you in all their beauty. The terraces here are practically private viewpoints where you can bask in the sun and admire the entire city – enjoy a meal at the picnic-style table or lounge on the Adirondacks (which double as a spectacular sunset spot). Honestly, in a city known for its miradouros, (meaning viewpoints in Portuguese), it’s possible that you might not find a better one than your own personal terrace. Inside, there's another kind of grandeur with marble floors and fireplaces, rattan bedroom walls and terracotta floor tiles creating an elegant, shabby chic vibe to the penthouse. And lest we forget to mention, you’ll be staying within the walls of Castelo São Jorge. Discover the historic heart of the city, where you can explore many of the cities’ churches and sights on foot along with local seafood restaurants, Portuguese cafes and traditional Fado houses. 

Seafarer Terrace

Just steps from Lisbon's Praça do Comércio, this apartment welcomes you to unwind and explore the ease. With its enviable location, some street noise should be expected here, however, most of the major sights are a short walk away. Spend the afternoon sunbathing on the banks of the Tagus River, pay a visit to the Lisbon Cathedral, or sample the eateries at the Timeout Food Market nearby. When you return home, there's a fully-equipped kitchen for preparing laidback meals, a handy desk space, and a charming balcony, which may be a Juliet, but we still think it's a pleasant spot for enjoying an evening drink. Also note that at full capacity, two people will be sleeping on a sofa bed in the living area. 

A Slice of Lisbon

Located in Lisbon's historical Baixa district – well known for its shopping, seafood restaurants and beautiful architecture – this charming apartment welcomes you to explore it all from the heart of the city. Stepping inside, you'll find traditional interiors, where natural materials and modern design meet in perfect harmony. 

You'll love returning to a place to call your own that's steeped in Lisbon's soul and character. From the wood beams and stone walls, the apartment is reassuringly rustic, while the modern furnishings make it a comfortable spot to unwind. Sink into the sofa with a good book, or gather your group in the cosy dining area for a toasty evening in together. 

When it's time to head out, you're just a short walk from Chiado, Bairro Alto, Alfama, the famous Avenida da Liberdade, while various taverns, cafes and bars surround your perfectly placed home.  

Part of History

Compact but cosy, this central apartment is a great base for exploring Lisbon. The balcony is a sweet bonus – not to mention the perfect spot to enjoy a cup of coffee and a pastel de nata before setting off. Since it's on the third floor without a lift, this home won't suit guests who struggle with stairs. One bedroom is smaller than the other – it's a good option for kids – and the kitchen lacks an oven, so dining out will likely be on the cards. Even so, you've got a wealth of options nearby, plus you're walking distance from attractions like Praça do Comércio (twenty minutes away), Santa Justa Lift (fifteen minutes) and the Tram 28.

Dias de Amor

In the hilly old streets of Lisbon’s Alfama neighbourhood, you’ve got viewpoints and ancient sights at every turn. From your doorstep, it’s a fifteen-minute walk to the ancient fortification of Castelo S. Jorge, overlooking the orange rooftops of Old Lisbon. A little closer to home, you can explore the trinkets and artworks of Mercado de Santa Clara, a vintage market five minutes’ walk away. Of course, this close to the centre, the streets around you are packed with restaurants, bars and bakeries to fuel your days.

Inside, fawn walls are livened up with bold floral artworks and pops of lipstick-red thanks to the plush dining chairs. The kitchen is a soothing space of lightwood and white, with everything you need for self-catering. Perhaps serve meals at the table in the conservatory-style covered courtyard where a roof of glass lets the natural light stream in.
