Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
The thing that really sets this home apart from many others is its spacious terrace that spans the whole apartment. There's a dining area for alfresco meals and a comfy outdoor sofa and chairs for evening drinks. We love that both bedrooms open out onto the patio too. There are views over the area and to the river from the living room's large windows as well. And what a neighbourhood this is. If you've heard of Alfama, you'll know it has plenty of authentic Fado restaurants. And attractions, including São Jorge Castle, Lisbon Cathedral, and the Miradouro das Portas do Sol are under a ten-minute walk away. Oh, and another highlight, the iconic Tram 28 stops right outside the door.

Local guide
About Graça
Graça is the highest point of Lisbon's seven hills, sitting just above the beautiful Alfama. You’ll find some of the best views of the city in this neighbourhood. Wind your way slowly up and down the cobbled streets, pausing at viewpoints to take in the pastel-painted walls of Alfama. The downside to the incredible views is the steepness of Graça – we advise taking it steady and calling in to local bars and restaurants for regular energy-boosts. As the sun sets over Lisbon, you’ll find your efforts in finding the perfect terrace worthwhile.
