High Ceilings, Endless Light, Private Courtyard Beautiful 3,5 Bedroom In Estrela

Soaring ceilings, light from three directions, and a private interior courtyard at the heart of the apartment this first-floor 3,5 bedroom offers space, calm and an exceptional indoor patio in the most coveted part of the city - Estrela.

Light from every side

The apartment runs the full depth of the building: some grand rooms face the street to the front; master bedroom, kitchen and dining room open to the back. In the middle where deep Lisbon apartments usually go dark sits the saguão: a light-filled interior courtyard that pours daylight into the heart of the home all day long. An oasis inside your own four walls, and the reason there isn’t a single gloomy corner in 175 m².

To the rear, a spacious veranda and 23 m² of private outdoor space morning coffee, plants, a dog, dinner outside with friends. Some actual breathing room in the heart of the city.

The layout works for real life

Officially a documented T4, it is currently lived in as a generous three-bedroom, the fourth room being converted to a dining room that leads directly to the kitchen. The front-and-back arrangement is what families search for and seldom find: representative rooms with high ceilings, a layout that movement can flow in, proper living and outdoor space. Hardwood floors throughout. Dual aspect, north-south, cross-ventilated

Three centuries of history

The proportions are no accident. The house appears in Lisbon’s tax registers as a palácio as far back as the 1700s the noble residence of the Albuquerque Coelho family, later home to João Correia de Sá of the Viscondes da Asseca line, and in the 1930s acquired by the Conde de Penha Garcia. This apartment occupies the first floor the andar nobre, the floor the owners always kept for themselves. The ceiling heights, the room volumes, the quality of light: all inherited from a building conceived for people who could afford the best.

Estrela, between everything

With the Jardim 9 de Abril on the doorstep, the riverfront a 10-minute walk, restaurants, cafés, museums, plazas and parks are the reason people move here to stay.
