Do you have a question about this home or the local area?

This architect-renovated Lisbon apartment enjoys river views and a lovely location in a quieter corner of the city. While the decor is simple, we think it's a wonderful choice if you're travelling for work or looking for a serene city getaway. There's a small outdoor space here with enough room for enjoying an alfresco lunch or evening drinks, and the shower room is fitted with Portuguese tiles to provide a spa-like experience. You'll find some lovely local cafes and a tapas restaurant within easy walking distance, and while there's paid street parking outside, public transport isn't far away for traversing the city with ease.

Local guide


About Santa Clara

Located in the northern part of Lisbon, Santa Clara is a civil parish known as a frequesia. This is definitely a tranquil and residential neighbourhood, though thanks to the great transport links, you’re still in close proximity to central Lisbon. Start your day with a fresh coffee and pastel de nata from a local bakery, then enjoy a walk around Parque Oeste. From here, you can hop on the metro...
