Escape the buzz of downtown Lisbon at this unique apartment offering the best of both worlds. Though set within a quiet traditional neighbourhood, you're just on the outskirts of Graça. One of Lisbon's most charming and oldest districts, there's street art, cafes, and restaurants aplenty. Inside the apartment, we can’t get enough of the historic features and high ceilings. And though small, we think it’s beautifully formed. The owners have kept the space pared-back and contemporary, letting the light stream in through those full-height windows and Juliet balcony with views out onto the courtyard below. The quiet garden shared between the other apartments is a real bonus in Lisbon where outdoor space is scarce. If you’re looking for a stylish bolthole to rest your head after a day sampling Lisbon life, this might just be it.

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...
