HISTORIC LOFT WITH REFINEMENT AND ELEGANCE IN PALÁCIO MESQUITELA
In the very heart of the Capital, history is felt at every step. Amid the narrow, winding streets, Lisbon witnesses the rebirth of Palácio Mesquitela, a symbol of exclusivity, sophistication, and prestige, accessible only to those who appreciate its historical significance and unique architectural design.
Built in the 17th century by D. Gonçalo de Sousa Macedo, Chief Accountant of the kingdom, jurist, and diplomat, it was named Palácio dos Condes de Mesquitela in 1754 by D. Luís de Sousa Macedo, 1st Viscount of Mesquitela. Declared a Property of Public Interest in 1993, it has housed the Pedagogical Museum, the Rodrigues Sampaio Preparatory School (1924), and the D. Maria I Female Technical School during the Estado Novo period.
In 2007, the palace was acquired, and the restoration project was led by architect Diogo Lima Mayer, who received high praise for transforming Palácio Mesquitela into a work of refined taste and contemporary style. By November 2014, the renovation was completed, unveiling lofts designed to meet the demands of the most exclusive clients.
Here we present the features of this 224 m² loft with 2 parking spaces and storage. This unique T2 loft offers spacious areas that live and change with Lisbon’s light. It includes:
- High-level design and construction elements - Large panoramic windows and balcony doors - Integrated ceiling heating and air conditioning (AV/AC) - Double glazing - Interior wooden blinds - Oak wood plank flooring - Recessed fluorescent and LED lighting - Washer and dryer - Solar panels - Security entrance door - Home automation - Central vacuum system
The two bedrooms overlook the loft’s two living rooms with a bird’s-eye view, featuring sloped ceilings, an en-suite bathroom for each bedroom, ample space for a dressing room and closet in the master bedroom, and access to a balcony with views of the palace courtyard.
The two living rooms are open to each other; one connects to the kitchen, ideal for dining, while the other is more intimate, perfect for work or leisure, with large balcony doors overlooking other historic buildings in the capital and the iconic tram 28 line crossing the city from Prazeres to Graça.
The kitchen is designed with the option to be open or closed to the living room. It is modern and equipped with new Italian Smeg appliances, including an induction cooktop, built-in microwave, electric oven, dishwasher, combined refrigerator, ample storage, pantry, window, and a service bathroom.
The loft’s private exterior includes several courtyards, a green area, and a chapel. The architectural complex extends from east to west between Travessas do Alcaide and do Judeu, and from north to south between Calçada do Combro and Rua do Sol.
