Settle into this easy living apartment in the heart of Lisbon and feel a sense of calm wash right over you. Taking inspiration from Southeast Asia, the living space will instantly put you at ease, whether you're curling up on the squishy sofa with a magazine or sipping wine while the record player serenades your leisurely lounging. From the woven hanging fabric on the walls, macramé and hemp furnishings to the beige tones and houseplants, the curated interiors here will transport you to a place a million miles away from the hustle and bustle of the city. And yet, you're just sixteen minutes on foot from the striking Convento do Carmo, while the Parque Eduardo VI is less than a twenty-minute walk away for long afternoon strolls under the warm Portuguese sun. Our recommendation? Make your way to trendy Bairro Alto for its art institutions, design studios and boutique shops that will be sure to clench your creative thirst. With a choice of two beautifully furnished private terraces to enjoy back home, bookmark the day with jugs of sangria on the outdoor sofas and sit down to alfresco meals at the stylish six-seater dining table.
