Neighbouring the celebrated Clérigos Tower, this sleek apartment puts you in prime position for exploring Porto on foot. Minutes from the beautiful Livraria Lello, Igreja do Carmo and the Jardim da Cordoaria, there's plenty of sightseeing to do right on your doorstep. Plus, you're just footsteps (250m) from the bustling Rua das Flores, teeming with restaurants, bars and cafes. São Bento metro station is also less than five minutes away, connecting you to the Cais da Ribeira waterfront and the rest of the city with ease. Back home, you'll immediately notice the stylish touch that's been given to this perfectly situated pad – from the plump yellow-coloured sofa, modern lighting, marble backsplash and beautiful pieces of modern art. There's plenty of room for you to pause and relax with a good book too, whether you're flopping down inside or sitting on the pretty bench around the corner. But the star of the show is your outside space, complete with a view of the Clerics and a striking art feature wall that adds a real visual statement. Days end out here, enjoying a chilled glass of wine as you mull over the evening's dinner options.
