5-Bedroom House on the Douro Riverfront Originally designed as a five bedroom house and currently configured as a four bedroom property, this stone-built villa with approximately 100 metres of river frontage stands out for its architectural authenticity, its direct relationship with the Douro River and its peaceful surroundings. Set on a plot of around 800 sqm, it preserves the original character of a historic residence commissioned by the Count of Vizela, designed by architect Carlos Loureiro, and is in very good condition, requiring minimal intervention.
Layout and features
The house is arranged over two floors with a balanced and functional layout. The ground floor comprises the main social areas, including a dining room, kitchen and pantry, all with seamless connection to the outdoor spaces. This level also includes two bedrooms and a full bathroom.
The upper floor is dedicated to the private area of the house, featuring a comfortable living room and two bedrooms, both benefiting from natural light and open views over the river.
Outside, the garden facing the water, the river view terrace and the possibility of mooring a boat stand out, a rare and highly valued feature.
The 55 sqm garage includes a bathroom supporting the garden, enhancing the functionality of the outdoor areas.
Location and surroundings
Located in Covelo, Gondomar, this property enjoys a privileged riverside setting in a well established, low density residential area. The surroundings are characterised by detached houses, tranquillity and a strong connection to the Douro River, with pedestrian paths and high quality natural scenery.
Its proximity to Porto, Vila Nova de Gaia and the main road access routes, including the VCI and A43, ensures everyday convenience. Local shops, services, schools and restaurants are all within easy reach, without compromising the discreet nature of the location.
