About this home
Location is key in this hilly coastal capital. Lucky for you, this apartment is situated just 150 metres from the effortlessly elegant Avenida da Liberdade. This grand nineteenth-century boulevard – built in the style of Paris' Champs-Elysees – runs from Marquês de Pombal Square to Restauradores Square in Lisbon's historic centre and is where you'll find many of the city's top hotels and designer stores. Inside, the original wood floors, Juliet balconies and tall, corniced ceilings give you a sense of the home's history, while the solid granite kitchen worktops, leather sofa and slate-tiled bathroom provide a touch of class. Step out, and you're spoiled for choice, with fascinating museums, impressive theatres, beautiful palaces, mouthwatering restaurants and vibrant bars – all within a ten-minute walk.
Staying in Avenida da Liberdade
New York has 5th Avenue, Paris has Champs Elysees, and Lisbon has Avenida da Liberdade. If you want luxury, then you've come to the right place. Walking down the avenue is a trip of pure opulence and lavishness, with a tradition of extravagance dating back to the mid 18th Century when it was built purposely for the Portuguese nobility to stroll and enjoy the good things in life. Central, full of life, and armed with a great selection of stores, it’s the ideal area for a shopping spree - if your pockets can handle it of course.
