Description
This stylish Lisbon home has a great location on a quiet street between Baixa and Alfama. Lisbon Cathedral and Praça do Comércio are both around a three-minute stroll, while the chic boutiques of Chiado are under a fifteen-minute walk. Historical Alfama, on the other hand, with its medieval architecture, is ten minutes on foot. If you fancy a day at the beach, your lovely hosts can arrange a trip to Cascais, a little over a thirty-minute ride away. Or let them make reservations at a typical fado restaurant for you – there are an array of fantastic eateries right on your doorstep. There's a contrast between the interior of this apartment and its historic neighbourhood – the design of this place has a cool and calm Scandinavian vibe. Some details speak of its history and surroundings, though, such as the original azulejo tiles and Alfama-themed art – we love the wooden shutters and the 19th-century painting on the living room wall too. This design-conscious home with clean lines and ample natural light is perfect for a family or group of friends who want some of the city's best-loved attractions within easy walking distance.
