Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Lapa is one of Lisbon's quieter residential corners, and this apartment leans into that calm – though it's anything but boring. Inside, mid-century furniture restored by the hosts and original art make the space feel lived-in and cosy. Front Juliet balconies draw in the afternoon light, while a rear one has space to sip sundowners in the fresh air. The second bedroom doubles as a proper home office – handy for longer stays, which the hosts are particularly well catered for. When you're ready to venture out, Santos Station is a fifteen-minute walk away, or you can stroll into the centre in about thirty minutes.
