Casa do Espírito Santo in Lisbon - Alfama. Good investment for medium term rental or live with charm and comfort.
Location, charm and top finishes.
This 1 bedroom apartment consists of a living room with an open kitchen, a window adorned with typical old loveseats. The kitchen is equipped with an electric hob, oven and fridge, all built-in. Hall and bathroom. Laundry area and boiler. Room with window.
The building is part of the Chapel of Nossa Senhora dos Remédios, or Chapel of the Holy Spirit, located on Rua da Regueira, in Alfama: a hill on the edge of the Tagus River. Legend has it that in the 16th century, a fisherman found an image of Nossa Senhora dos Remédios inside a well and took it to the Ermida, hence the name.
The building, located in the Ermida block, underwent complete rehabilitation works, resulting in a shop and two apartments, with high quality finishes, but maintaining elements of the past: the 'stone lovelies', the sec. XVI, the stone steps and many other details. The view from the top resembles a postcard, with a view of the river and the roofs of Lisbon.
A unique property, which combines history and the comfort of modern times.
About the Alfama neighborhood
Alfama is one of the most picturesque neighborhoods in Lisbon, with its soul, its traditions and unique people and, of course, with a story in every corner and alley. After all, anyone who goes to Alfama and doesn't get lost is a sign that they still don't know it fully.
The best Fado houses are located here, and that is why the Fado Museum is located there.
It is the neighborhood where, truly, we feel like Lisbon. With the smells and light of Lisbon, Alfama is authentic: Fado can be heard here and there, clothes are laid out, women talking at the window, doors open, fish being grilled in the open air.
Here there is a lot of commerce, several grocery stores, and restaurants and many friendly and helpful people. There is always someone who knows someone else, capable of solving the most unimaginable occurrences. And that's great!
Praça do Comércio is a 12-minute walk away and Rossio and Av. Liberty at 20 min walk. There is transport and riverside walks are right there.
Come to visit and live so centrally and with the Tagus river right next door.
