A Characterful Three Bedroom Townhouse With Open River Views

Set on a discreet private street in the heart of Chiado, this exceptional penthouse offers approximately 350 sqm of interior space across three levels, with an expansive terrace overlooking the River Tagus. A rare proposition in central Lisbon, it brings together the scale and privacy of a private residence with the character of one of the city’s most established neighbourhoods.

Arranged across three generous levels, the residence has been conceived to offer a natural distinction between arrival, entertaining and private living. Its townhouse-style configuration lends a sense of independence rarely found in an apartment, while carefully considered proportions and a central light core bring natural light into the heart of the home.

The principal entertaining level is defined by generous reception and dining areas extending towards the river-facing terraces. Floor-to-ceiling glazing draws daylight deep into the interiors, framing uninterrupted views across the Tagus. The connection between the living spaces and the outdoors creates an elegant setting for everyday life, with ample room for entertaining against the changing light of the river.

Above, the private accommodation offers a quieter counterpoint to the open, social spaces below. The upper floor is centred around a spacious principal suite, accompanied by two guest suites, each with its own bathroom. Generous proportions, built-in storage and large windows create a sense of calm, while the south-facing aspect brings natural light into the bedrooms throughout the day.

On the ground floor, a private garage provides direct internal access to the residence. A separate room and WC offer additional flexibility, with potential for use as a private gym or staff quarters.

Throughout the residence, the emphasis is on volume, light and enduring materials. Its generous scale and flexible configuration allow the interiors to be tailored to the needs of their future owner, whether as a primary residence, a Lisbon base or a private home designed for extended stays.

The setting is as distinctive as the residence itself. Positioned on a private residential street in South Chiado with no through traffic, the property enjoys a rare degree of discretion in the centre of the city. A characterful stairway leads directly down to Lisbon’s riverside promenade, while the surrounding streets place the architecture, restaurants, galleries and everyday life of Chiado within easy reach. It is a location that balances the energy of central Lisbon with a sense of privacy and retreat.
