This home is located in a popular part of Lower Alfama, mostly famous for its fado houses and picturesque narrow streets that bring Lisbon's history to life. Part of a 200-year-old building, this petite open-plan studio has been designed with the mission to maximise the space available (and make it pretty). There's no couch – instead you'll find a cosy window sill where you can curl up with a book, and a miniature dining spot ideal for morning coffee. However, we think that, with so much to see right on your doorstep, you'll spend most of your time out and about exploring the city. Old Alfama is truly a maze, but getting lost amongst the sights and smells of this neighbourhood is part of the fun. Plus, you can walk to Lisbon Cathedral, Castelo de São Jorge and the riverfront in under ten minutes.
Home truths: *This home is a studio, so the living, dining and sleeping spaces are all in the same room
* There's no elevator to this first-floor home, so it might not suit those with limited mobility or heavy luggage
* The staircase up to this home is quite steep and narrow
* Due to the narrow pedestrian streets, there's no vehicle access to the doorstep
* As with most homes in Alfama, the internet is quite slow
