Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
The elegance of this apartment resembles its home neighbourhood – the chic and stylish Príncipe Real. Drenched in luxe stores and high-end shops, your home rests in one of the most in-demand suburbs of Lisbon. Step out onto the charming streets and feel as fashionable as the locals. If you set your sights slightly further than Príncipe Real, Lisbon has a wealth of attractions. Snap pictures of the architecture in the daytime before settling down for some bifana in the evening. Of course, the local wine is the energising elixir that ties the weekend together. For the days or nights you just wanna chill at the apartment, the intimate living space caters to every mood. Become a digital nomad on the working station or settle into the comfort of the sofas in the evening. The balcony overlooking the streets provides natural light which enhances the rugged, earthy tones. Notice Saharan details infused into the authentically Portuguese interior.
