Appartamento Estrela

Duplex T3 apartment with 164 m², 2 balconies of 7 m² each, 1 garage box with capacity for 2/3 cars, and 2 storage rooms, located in the Pórtico Building of the Vila Tijolo Development.

Vila Tijolo is an exclusive residential development in the heart of Lisbon, near Tapada das Necessidades, between Estrela, Campo de Ourique, and Alcântara. It is an exemplary rehabilitation and expansion project that revives the history of one of the city’s most emblematic workers’ villages and transforms it into a contemporary, elegant, and functional living space.

Built between 1891 and 1893 by José Joaquim de Almeida Junça to house workers from his Fonte Santa Factory (Cerâmicas Junça), Vila do Tijolo is a rare and remarkable example of exposed brick industrial architecture in Lisbon—only comparable to the iconic Campo Pequeno Bullring.

The original project dates back to 1887 and reflects a unique architectural approach, featuring a richly decorative facade, cast iron galleries at the rear, and interiors with high ceilings and exposed brick barrel vaults. Classified as a Municipal Interest Monument, the property underwent a respectful and meticulous intervention that honors its historical and architectural value while introducing new residential features, comfort, and sustainability.

The generous plot of 2,496.90 m² allowed the expansion of the original building and the organization of the development into three distinct volumes:

• A. Vila do Tijolo Building (28 residential units)
• B. Art Déco Building (2 residential units)
• C. Townhouses (5 exclusive homes)

In total, Vila Tijolo comprises 35 residential units carefully designed to provide a unique living experience in central Lisbon.

Amenities and Sustainability

The main access to the development is via Rua Possidónio da Silva, through the Art Déco Building, leading to a large central garden area thoughtfully designed with selected tree species, leisure zones, and a strong landscaping commitment.

Vila Tijolo also offers:

• Modern gym
• Shared swimming pool
• Private central garden
• Parking with electric vehicle charging points
• Private garages for the townhouses
• Individual storage rooms
• Washing area for bicycles and equipment
• Central security system
• NOS Smart Home technology solution for efficient, intelligent, and sustainable home management
• Entrance hall with smart lockers for package reception

Location and Connectivity

Located on a hill at the confluence of Alcântara, Campo de Ourique, and Prazeres, Vila do Tijolo is situated on a street where other historic workers’ villages still stand, close to green spaces like Jardim da Tapada das Necessidades. It is an area undergoing rapid development, benefiting from:

• New stations on the Metro’s red line
• Public transport network
• Schools, local shops, and services
• Excellent access to the city center

Vila Tijolo represents the meeting point between history and innovation, offering an exclusive lifestyle in the heart of Lisbon. Whether for personal residence or investment, this project combines authenticity, comfort, distinctive architecture, and high potential for appreciation.
