Sitting right across from Porto’s scenic Praça da República and its leafy Jardim de Teófilo Braga, this beautifully bright apartment provides a comfortable and modern base from which to explore the city. Boasting two balconies – one off of the bedroom and one accessed via the living room – you’re spoilt for choice when it comes to sunny spots to enjoy your morning coffee or evening sundowner while taking in stunning views across Porto’s red rooftops We love how much natural light fills this home thanks to its large glass doors and outdoor spaces, creating a zen-like ambience throughout with its pared-back decor. The open-plan living area’s dining table beckons breakfasts over fresh pastéis de nata or intimate dinners while the sky turns to shades of pink and amber outside, while the sleek bathroom with its luxurious rainfall shower provides the most relaxing of wake-ups. When you’re not hanging out in your cool pad, got out and explore the city’s sights. You’re a ten-minute walk from the beautiful Igreja do Carmo, a twenty-minute stroll from Porto Cathedral, while bustling Cais da Ribeira – right on the Douro River – is thirty minutes away on foot.
