Few places in Porto can outshine this home's location. Positioned just north of the historic centre, it sits next to what is undoubtedly one of the city's most iconic landmarks, the Clérigos Tower. Standing at 75 metres in height, this elaborate Baroque masterpiece is not only a steadfast component of Porto's skyline but also the tallest campanile in Portugal. Ascend its two-hundred-and-twenty-five steps and be rewarded with sweeping panoramas across the city's terracotta-tiled rooftops and out towards the endless blue of the Atlantic Ocean. A rosy-hued Pombaline façade provides the framework for this home, exuding authentic charm from the outset. Perched up high on the third floor, it's delightfully peaceful and boasts a unique vantage point of Porto's cityscape, including the nearby Jardim das Oliveiras. Though compact, the interior feels spacious and inviting thanks to a trio of large windows, ushering in floods of natural light, and a thoughtfully considered open-plan layout. The décor is contemporary with a stylish mid-century-inspired quality, and we especially love the kitchen, fully equipped with home chefs in mind. Spend mornings roosted at the spacious dining table, tucking into coffee and pastries before slipping out to explore.
