The space
Five big windows bring air and light into the apartment and connect the indoor with the outdoor space. There is always shadow to be found on one side of the house or under the big parasol in the yard.
The kitchen is equipped with everything you need for preparing a meal at home including a dishwasher

Guest access
All indoor and outdoor space in and around the house

Other things to note
Due to new parking regulations in Graca it is ot anymore possible for visitors to park in the street inside the community. There is public parking in the adjourning streets (200 m) at a cost of 0.80 cents an hour Monday-Friday 9:00-19:00 with a maximum of 4 hours. For longer periods there is a public parking place 350 m from the apartment at euro 30 for 24 hours. We are looking for a better arrangement.

Where you’ll be

Lisbon, Portugal

The apartment is located in a small private community in the heart of Graca. Bairro Estrela d'Ouro was originally built for the employees of a chocolate factory in the beginning of the twentieth century. The symbol of the community is a five-pointed-star which is visible everywhere in the mosaic of the pavements and most beautifully displayed in three traditional azulejo tile-murals on the walls of three of the houses. The neighborhood offers both a variety of sights within short walking distance and the feeling of living in a village in the middle of a buzzing city.

The wider neighborhood of Graca is stretched out over the top of one of the city’s seven hills only a short downhill walk away from the city center and one hilltop away from the Lisbon Castle. You will find the most breathtaking of Lisbon's many viewpoints “Miradouro da Nossa Senhora do Monte” just a five minute walk up the hill from the apartment and the famous tram # 28 stops just around the corner. Other attractions in the immediate area include the National Pantheon, the Monastery of "São Vicente de Fora" and the famous "Feira da Ladra" flea market held on Tuesdays and Saturdays.
Lisbon is everything you have ever heard about it plus all the feelings it evokes when you throw yourself into its open arms. Soft, colorful, chaotic, melancholic, and timidly expressive. Just open the door and it is all around you.
