Porto House

Identificação do imóvel: ZMPT575202

I present to you this distinguished and rare property, located on one of Porto’s most emblematic avenues, right in Bonfim, a central, cultural, touristic, and academic area.

Just a few meters from the Faculty of Fine Arts of the University of Porto and surrounded by cultural facilities, commerce, and services, this property offers 367.90 m² of gross private area and a total plot of 236 m², distributed across three units susceptible to independent use.

It is a property with high residential and commercial potential, with the possibility of obtaining short-term rental (AL) licensing, even in a containment zone, subject to formal request.

Another differentiating factor is the possibility of adding two more floors in height, considering the building height (cércea) and the surrounding constructions. With a solid and creative architectural project, it may justify construction of up to four to five floors, always subject to urban planning framework and municipal approval.
