Portas do Sol Terrace Lisbon - Apartment

200 m2 of pure charm. A 4 bedroom apartment with a large terrace for your dinners on the warm Lisbon summer nights. Old tiles on the walls of one of the bedrooms, living and dining room facing the terrace dominated by a wooden deck, comfortable rooms and air conditioning complete the picture of an apartment idealized for families or groups of friends

DESCRIPTION

This fully renovated apartment is part of an old building in the heart of Alfama. Large, well decorated, full of sunshine, you will feel the good taste in every detail. Of the 2 beautiful ensuite rooms, one in shades of blue to match the magnificent 18th century tiles on the walls, the other in white and green, passing through the two other rooms, windowless but with air conditioning, nothing in this apartment was forgotten. This attitude is reflected in the decoration of the living and dining rooms, bright, modern and comfortable, opening onto a spacious terrace dominated by a wooden deck, perfect for extended breakfasts or candlelit dinners in the summer. The apartment also has lots of storage, honey-colored wooden floors, renovated bathrooms and a nice kitchen, totally refurbished, and a terrace, the perfect place for your children to play in complete safety.
The many stairs and small cobbled stone streets in the neighborhood are an invitation to guests' fitness! (historic area without access to cars).
Located in a typical Alfama alley with pots of plants in the doorstep of the neighbors. The street only has access by stairs that take you to the Largo das Portas do Sol, one of the most beautiful viewpoints of Lisbon.

NEIGHBORHOOD
For sightseeing, Alfama is probably Lisbon’s most interesting quarter, packed with monuments from 12th to 18th century, Fado venues, little restaurants and bars, and about 2 minutes away from the famous 28 tram which will take you through some of Lisbon’s highlights.

The apartment is walking distance from the breathtaking Portas do Sol (“sun’s doors”) belvedere from where you can enjoy the river’s ever changing colors and the outline of Serra da Arrábida mountains.

But you can also start to walk the downhill cobbled stone streets of old Lisbon to reach places such as the Fado Museu (4 min), Sao Jorge Castle and Se Cathedral (6 min), the breathtaking Praça do Comércio (12 min), downtown Rossio (15 min), and about 25 min away the aristocratic Chiado and the alternative Bairro Alto.

If you prefer to walk uphill from your apartment you reach the Graça belvedere and the imposing 18th century Graça church (where you might listen to a church choir rehearsal on a Sunday afternoon) in about 10 min. Also in a 10 min range from this church, you will find the even more beautiful Senhora do Monte belvedere; typical Feira da Ladra (flea market) on Tuesdays and Saturdays; or São Vicente de Fora convent and its incredibly beautiful rooftop (please do not miss it!).

This quarter is served by the 28 tram and some buses. However, if you walk downhill and reach the river side you will find buses that will transport you to Lisbon’s every corner (including the airport). Or, alternatively, take the metro in Terreiro do Paço or Santa Apolónia (both ca 12 min). From Rossio square you can walk across Baixa and reach Cais do Sodré train station which serves the beautiful seaside village/resorts of Cascais and Estoril (30 min), where the Portuguese and European royalties used to spend their summers in the late 19th and early 20th century or Rosio station from where you can take the train and visit the amazing natural jewel that Sintra is.
