If you love exotic flowers and trees, you’ll adore this apartment’s location in the heart of Funchal, just a couple of minutes’ walk from the beautiful Jardim Municipal – we could spend hours here. For history buffs, there’s Funchal Cathedral, while an array of restaurants and bars are right on your doorstep. Or, for breathtaking views of the city, we recommend taking a ride on the wonderful Funchal Cable Car. This home’s location really allows you to live life like a local. So, prepare a feast in the modern kitchen from fresh ingredients gathered from Funchal’s renowned farmers’ market (around a ten-minute stroll away) and enjoy at the dining table in the contemporary, open-plan living space. With its warm parquet wood flooring, whitewashed walls, and prints of local flora, it’s the perfect place to relax. Pour a glass of Madeira wine, sink into the comfy sofa and plan your next day’s adventures.
