Excellent T3 In Arroios With City Views

In Arroios, one of Lisbon’s most authentic areas, this second-floor apartment on Rua Cidade de Cardiff stands out for its versatility: with 98.5 m² of gross floor area and generous 3.10 m ceilings, it is currently configured as a three-bedroom apartment, but can also be adapted into a very spacious two-bedroom apartment, with generous rooms and truly ample living areas. It is a home that gives the buyer the freedom to configure it according to their needs — family life, working from home or larger social spaces.

In the Bairro de Inglaterra district, the property preserves the character and elegance of Lisbon architecture — a façade covered in traditional tiles, wrought-iron balconies, high ceilings and wooden floors — elements that give it a unique and timeless identity. Renovated in 2020, it combines the charm of period features with the comfort and functionality of a contemporary home; the renovation did not erase the property’s personality, but enhanced it. The kitchen and bathroom are the best examples of this modernity: both were renovated in a contemporary style, and the kitchen is fully fitted with Bosch appliances.

The two large living rooms (23.12 m² and 24.28 m²) offer different possibilities for use and are particularly appealing to those seeking a two-bedroom apartment with generous social spaces. The current three-bedroom configuration retains three bedrooms (14.58 m², 14.52 m² and 14.61 m²), offering flexibility for family use, an office or a guest room. This freedom of configuration is perhaps the property’s greatest advantage: each buyer can shape it according to their own way of living.

One space deserves special mention: the enclosed balcony (8.11 m²). Filled with natural light and offering an open view over the surrounding Lisbon area, it is one of those places that quickly becomes the emotional heart of a home — ideal for breakfast, reading, working or simply sitting and enjoying the city.

The home is completed by the fitted kitchen (12.50 m²) with Bosch appliances, renovated bathroom (3.35 m²), hallway (5.53 m²) and a separate laundry room (1.72 m²) — a dedicated functional space that ensures privacy and organization without interfering with the living areas.

The building has a very well-organized condominium association, ensuring peace of mind and sound long-term property management — a factor that often weighs heavily in the decisions of more discerning buyers.

In Arroios, in surroundings defined by Lisbon’s architecture and identity, this apartment offers a combination that is difficult to find: generous areas, character, versatility, contemporary comfort and a view to enjoy every day. A three-bedroom apartment in essence, with the potential to become an exceptional two-bedroom home and, above all, a property with soul that adapts to those who live in it.

Just a few minutes away are some of Lisbon’s most sought-after areas, including Alameda, Saldanha, Avenida da Liberdade, Baixa and Chiado, providing quick connections to different parts of the city. The transport network is another advantage, with several metro and bus options nearby, making everyday life easier, both for those who work in the centre and for those who wish to explore Lisbon on foot.
