Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Rua Carmo is one of the busiest shopping streets in Lisbon, and this home is located right on the iconic avenue. The building was built by Portuguese architect Siza Vieira, and still retains its gorgeous traditional facade. Inside, you'll find great natural light in the communal area, and views of the bustling street below. The decor is simple yet comfy, and there's plenty of space to cook, eat and relax here between sightseeing expeditions. Plus, the master bedroom has its very own kitchen, lounge area and bathroom – this individual studio within the apartment is great for those that want a little more privacy. The Santa Justa Lift is just a couple of minutes away – in fact, you can see it from some of the windows – and Castelo de São Jorge is less than a twenty-minute walk away. Explore the streets on foot, stopping in at the local boutiques and cafés as you go, and you're guaranteed to fall in love with this vibrant city.

Local guide
About Chiado
Chiado is full of old-world charm, and is one of the best-loved parts of Lisbon. Think pastel-hued homes, cobbled streets and plenty of squares to soak up the atmosphere. There’s a slower pace of life in Chiado, which is why it’s so popular with locals. Hop on a tram to take in the open-air ruin of the Camo church, a Gothic masterpiece that was mostly destroyed in an earthquake, or hit the shops – this is one of Lisbon’s best shopping districts, after all.
