Get set to escape reality and embrace all things Alcântara as you retreat to this modern, centrally-located apartment. This stunning and bright home is situated right next to Lx Factory – the 1846 industrial factory complex which is now, a cultural hub of designers, artists and architects offering events, boutiques and restaurants – the perfect spot to spend your day. The home itself is defined by tall windows that invite the natural light to sweep through every room, ornate-corniced ceilings, and contemporary soft furnishings, giving the place a sense of modernist charm. The stunning dining room features a large table and a large-scale artwork creating an idyllic environment for intimate dinners with the produce you picked up from the Lx Rural Farmers Market on Sunday. The walled courtyard with adjoining conservatory is a picture of calm, with its cosy chairs, rattan accents and tropical plants – spend afternoons here with the new book you picked up from Ler Devagar, a few steps from your apartment. Minimal and breezy but totally inviting, this place is brought to life by statement light fixtures, graphic throws and thoughtful touches. Located so centrally, you have a myriad of cultural options to invest in, as well... as a tranquil base from which to explore them all. Spend the day gallery hopping - explore the contemporary works at AINORI art gallery Galeria Ainori (a five-minute walk) and the progressive exhibitions at the cultural institution, MAAT, just a twenty-three-minute walk away.

About Alcântara
With the booming of tourism in Lisbon in the past few years, some areas have inevitably changed. Alcantara is not one of them. Its name stems from the Arabic word for 'bridge' which is, as anyone who strolls through Alcântara will realize, a very literal name.
