Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
This apartment has a couple of assets that won us over. For a start, the large windows in the living space bring in a lot of natural light and it's accentuated by the double-height ceilings, cleansing white walls and shiny wood floors. Needless to say, it makes for a lovely place in which to put your feet up and relax. The bedroom, on the other hand, is nestled away up among the wooden ceiling beams on the mezzanine level and is suitably cosy. Another selling point is the excellent location. The surrounding neighbourhood of Cedofeita sits within walkable distance of many of the city's major landmarks — Porto's Cathedral only takes twenty minutes to reach on foot, for instance — but the area retains an authentic feel. Here, it's possible to fill the day wandering through art galleries, stopping off at small cafes and looking through street markets.
