A New Expression of Living in Porto
Cunha Residence is set in Paranhos, one of Porto’s most dynamic, established and promising neighbourhoods, offering a distinctive way of living where elegance, privacy and contemporary comfort meet the authenticity of Porto’s architectural heritage.
Deliberately intimate in scale, this exclusive residential development comprises just 7 apartments — four one-bedroom apartments, two two-bedroom apartments and one three-bedroom penthouse — arranged across four floors, creating a peaceful and distinguished residential atmosphere.
More than a development, Cunha Residence is a contemporary interpretation of Porto’s identity: the preservation of the building’s original architectural character is combined with a sophisticated, modern and functional approach, in a project designed by the renowned practice of Architect Lopes da Costa.
The result is a high-quality residential collection where every space has been conceived to provide comfort, natural light, privacy and a privileged connection with the outdoors.
ARCHITECTURE WITH IDENTITY
Cunha Residence stands out for the balanced dialogue it establishes between the city’s architectural heritage and the demands of contemporary living.
Characteristic elements of the original construction, such as solid wood flooring and traditional stonework details, have been carefully restored and integrated into a contemporary architectural concept, preserving the authenticity and memory of the building.
The project’s contemporary language adds comfort, functionality and sophistication without compromising the identity of the development.
Each apartment has been conceived as a distinctive home, with a carefully curated selection of materials and finishes that prioritises quality, durability and timeless elegance.
INTERIORS | ELEGANCE & COMFORT
The interiors of Cunha Residence reflect a contemporary, understated and sophisticated aesthetic.
Natural light plays a central role in the experience of each apartment, enhancing the proportions of the spaces and strengthening the relationship between indoors and outdoors.
The selection of materials and equipment reflects a consistent commitment to quality:
Solid wood flooring, restored wherever possible, preserving the building’s original character; Timber-framed windows with low-emissivity double glazing, combining thermal and acoustic comfort with the natural elegance of timber; Contemporary designer kitchens, created for both practical and sophisticated everyday living; Siemens appliances or equivalent; Worktops in natural silica compact surface, similar to Silestone; Bathrooms equipped with recognised high-quality brands such as Sanindusa and Bruma; Pre-installation for air conditioning; Construction solutions designed around comfort, efficiency and long-term durability.
Every detail has been carefully considered to create a balanced residential experience: contemporary, comfortable and timeless.
THE PRIVILEGE OF OUTDOOR LIVING
At Cunha Residence, the connection with the outdoors takes on particular importance.
Several apartments feature private balconies, terraces or patios, extending the living areas and creating privileged spaces in which to enjoy natural light, fresh air and tranquillity.
The development also includes a shared garden, conceived as a space for relaxation and contemplation — a small green retreat in the heart of the city.
Here, outdoor space is more than an extension of the home; it becomes an integral part of the living experience.
RESIDENCE D 1-BEDROOM · 2ND FLOOR REAR A One-Bedroom Residence with an Exceptional Outdoor Dimension
Residence D stands out within Cunha Residence for its generous proportions and, above all, for its extraordinary relationship with the outdoors.
Located on the 2nd floor, rear, this one-bedroom apartment benefits from a privileged South and West-facing orientation, providing excellent exposure to natural light throughout the day.
With 75.40 sq m of private gross area, the apartment features a carefully considered layout designed to provide both comfort and functionality.
Its true distinction, however, lies in its exceptional outdoor spaces.
The residence features a generous 19.30 sq m private balcony, ideal for creating an outdoor living area, enjoying an al fresco meal or simply making the most of the surrounding light and tranquillity.
Complementing the balcony is an exceptional 93.80 sq m private patio, offering a rare outdoor dimension within an urban residential development of this nature.
In total, Residence D offers 188.50 sq m of total gross area, encompassing both indoor and outdoor spaces.
A true privilege for those seeking the convenience of city living while also valuing space, privacy and a meaningful connection with the outdoors.

A LOCATION THAT CONNECTS EVERYTHING Paranhos · Porto
Located between Praça do Marquês and the University Campus, Cunha Residence benefits from a strategic location that combines accessibility, centrality and quality of life.
Just a short walk away, Combatentes Metro Station provides fast and convenient connections to the city’s main areas.
Its proximity to São João University Hospital further enhances the strategic importance of this location, placing it within one of the country’s leading hubs for healthcare, research, science and education.
It is an area where different worlds come together: students, researchers, healthcare professionals, families and a new generation of residents seeking a dynamic, cosmopolitan and increasingly international city.
THE TRANQUILLITY OF A RESIDENTIAL STREET
Despite its proximity to the city’s main amenities and urban connections, Cunha Residence remains protected from the intensity of city life.
Set on a quiet street lined with traditional houses and smaller residential buildings, the development benefits from a more private and peaceful environment.
It is precisely this duality that makes Paranhos so distinctive:
the city is close, yet tranquillity remains right outside your door.
A rare balance between urban mobility and residential privacy.
PARANHOS A Neighbourhood with a Future
Paranhos is now one of Porto’s youngest and most cosmopolitan neighbourhoods.
The presence of major higher-education institutions, hospitals and research centres has fostered a diverse, dynamic and international community, while its residential areas retain their own identity and human scale.
An excellent range of public transport, retail, services, restaurants and amenities makes the neighbourhood particularly convenient for everyday life.
Living in Paranhos means being close to everything that matters, while still enjoying the comfort and character of a residential neighbourhood.
A LOCATION WITH STRONG INVESTMENT POTENTIAL
Beyond its residential appeal, Paranhos is assuming an increasingly prominent position within Porto’s real estate market.
The concentration of universities, hospitals, research centres and specialised services supports consistent demand for housing, particularly among the academic community and healthcare professionals.
This dynamic gives Cunha Residence a dual appeal:
a privileged place to live and an investment opportunity with strong potential for long-term appreciation.
The development’s limited scale, construction quality, strategic location and diversity of private outdoor spaces further enhance its exclusivity and market appeal.
ONLY 7 RESIDENCES
In a market where scale is often associated with size, Cunha Residence deliberately takes the opposite approach.
Just 7 apartments.
A deliberate choice that prioritises privacy, tranquillity and a more exclusive residential environment.
Each residence has been conceived with its own identity, combining different layouts, proportions and relationships with the outdoors.
A limited number of residences also means something rarer:
the opportunity to become part of a truly exclusive place.
CUNHA RESIDENCE Authenticity. Architecture. Comfort. Exclusivity.
Cunha Residence represents a new way of living Porto.
A project where the city’s architectural heritage is preserved and reinterpreted through a contemporary language.
Where a central location meets the tranquillity of a residential street.
Where the quality of carefully selected materials meets the comfort of modern solutions.
And where selected apartments benefit from private outdoor spaces that transform the everyday experience of urban living.
With Residence D, this philosophy takes on a particularly distinctive expression: a 75.40 sq m one-bedroom apartment, complemented by a 19.30 sq m private balcony and an exceptional 93.80 sq m private patio.
A home designed for those who believe that living in Porto can mean having the city within easy reach — without giving up the privilege of having your own private outdoor space, your privacy and a place to breathe.
