Fresh Perspective Porto

Property Description

We've fallen hard for this apartment found in the city of Valbom, just outside of Porto. For a start, the covered terrace has a spectacular view of the Duoro River from the huge window, as well as plenty of seating for enjoying this pleasant scene, whatever the weather.

Back inside, the design is wonderfully bright, thanks to the stark white walls, shiny wooden floors and the ample amount of natural light streaming in through from the glass doors. The minimalist kitchen and pair of pristine bathrooms are both gleamingly white, too. That being said, a few tasteful bursts of colour and flourishes – like the mock four-poster motif in one of the bedrooms – have been incorporated to stop the space from feeling too sterile.

In the immediate area, it's possible to fill your afternoons with riverside strolls, a visit to a museum dedicated to the printing press and stop-offs in restaurants, but the centre of Porto is only a twenty-minute drive away too whenever you fancy a change of scenery.

Home truths:
*The building has an elevator to reach this single-level apartment
*There's free parking available on the premises
