The apartment is located on the ground floor of an early 20th century building, now fully refurbished with a stunning view over the river.

Located just a few minutes walk from Largo da Graça and the lookouts overlooking Castelo de S. Jorge, and nestled in the mesh of typical houses surrounding the hill.

In the heart of Graça – one of Lisbon’s oldest districts, where locally-born residents coexist with new inhabitants looking for the traditional features of the city’s oldest areas – the purpose of the building’s refurbishment was to preserve all relevant architectural features, including the facade, the pediment, the staircase and the typical Lisbon skylight.

With a living room with fully equipped kitchenette, bathroom, bedroom, study room with closet and a patio, the apartment’s refurbishment used high quality materials that reflect the building’s historical features: the Portuguese style 14cmx2m pine flooring with medium gloss varnish are an excellent example of this approach.

But if tradition is the dominant feature of the refurbishment, this doesn’t mean that modern comfort and needs have been forgotten.

Thus, all window frames have double glazing and security ironmongery, offering an efficient thermal and acoustic insulation.
