This flat sits in an authentic, azulejo-tiled building on a quiet street just off of Avenida da Liberdade, Lisbon's main boulevard. You’ll be walking distance from a host of attractions – fifteen minutes from Convento do Carmen, fifteen from the Botanical Gardens and eighteen from the trendy Barrio Alto. Returning home, you’ll find original stone arches and tasteful vintage furnishings in the lobby that perfectly match the exterior traditional setting. Inside, stone accents bring the same authenticity to the living space, while bright pops of colour add a touch of warmth and cosiness to the home. Sit back on the sofa, gather around the table for a meal or take a luxurious soak in the marble bathroom – with its brilliant location and thoughtful interior, this is a great choice for newbies and oldies to the city.
