In the heart of Porto city, on the iconic Rua da Alegria, stands this urban building under horizontal property regime, intended for commercial and residential use. It consists of a ground floor and three upper floors, totaling four independent units. Established as horizontal property in 2000, the building dates back to before 1951 and preserves the typical character of Porto architecture, combined with an urban setting that is constantly appreciating.
Its location is undoubtedly one of its main highlights: situated in one of the most traditional and dynamic areas of the city, it benefits from proximity to the historic center, riverside zones, and various cultural, tourist, and commercial points of interest.
On the ground floor, there is a commercial unit with a generous area of 117 m², offering excellent potential for various types of business, taking advantage of the visibility and pedestrian traffic in the surrounding area.
The upper floors — first, second, and third — each contain a T3 apartment with 124 m² of gross private area, featuring a functional and balanced layout. Each residential unit includes: - A living room - An independent kitchen - A pantry - A balcony accessible from both the living room and kitchen, providing natural light, outdoor connection, and SEA VIEW
The entrance hall and corridor are spacious, ensuring comfortable circulation. In the private area, there are three bedrooms, one with a balcony, and two full bathrooms (one with a bathtub and the other with a shower). Additionally, two storage areas complement these apartments, enhancing the practical use of space.
It is important to note that the building requires maintenance and some rehabilitation work, representing an excellent opportunity for value enhancement. The potential for intervention allows adapting the property to different strategies — from modernizing the existing units to reconfiguring them for investment purposes, such as long-term rental or tourist exploitation — fully leveraging its privileged location.
