A Palacete Reborn Duplex With Riverviews

Some addresses don’t announce themselves. This is one of them.

Behind private gates in Xabregas sits a restored 19th-century palacete, now home to just thirteen residences. This top-floor duplex is the rarest thing in it: 163.56 m² across two private levels, with the river in view from every room living areas, suites, even the bathrooms.

The heart of it is the living room. Its windows are full-height glass doors that slide open and let the entire space spill out onto a terrace facing the water inside and outside become one room, with the Tejo in front of you. Off the same room, a second outdoor spot: a quaint, tucked-away corner for morning coffee or a quieter moment. The ground floor connects living, dining, and kitchen in a single flow, with a social bathroom and terraces built for long evenings. Upstairs, two full suites and more open air, each room pulling in light, cross-ventilation, and an undisturbed view of the river.

Hardwood floors run throughout. The finishes are where the quality shows marble bathrooms, materials chosen for how they age rather than how they photograph. Nothing added for show; everything built to last.

Step outside your door and the building does the rest: a swimming pool, private gardens, a fully equipped gym, steam room, jacuzzi, and a concierge resort-style calm in the middle of the city. Two underground parking spaces and a large storage unit handle the practical side.

Xabregas is one of Lisbon’s quiet turning points a riverside pocket of old convents and warehouses just east of Santa Apolónia, minutes from Alfama and the city centre, and right beside the Beato and Marvila districts now drawing the city’s creative and food scene. Authentic, waterfront, and moving in one direction.
