Douro Dreaming Porto

Property Description

With stunning Douro River views, the equal of those from the nearby Miradouro da Vitória, this historic building offers up the perfect Porto apartment for your time in the city.

Come for the top-floor views and stay for the stylish mid-century interior. Why not read a book in the Eames chair beneath the awe-inspiring domed skylight, admire the minimalist artwork casually propped up against the wall, or relax in the elegant living area seating?

Elsewhere, you'll find four bedrooms, two of which stand out for their en-suite bathrooms and direct balcony access. The outdoor space, in particular, makes for a welcome private area when you want some time to yourself.

When you're not living it up in your scenic sitting room, head out into the streets and discover the historic sights within a stone's throw of your flat. Check out the impressive Palacio da Bolsa on the Unesco-listed Infante D. Henrique Square, five minutes on foot, marvel at Porto's magnificent cathedral, a ten-minute stroll, and use the Gustave Eiffel-designed Luís I Bridge to cross the River Douro, a twelve-minute meander from your front door.
