The main characteristic of this house, because it’s sits on the third floor, is the natural light throughout the apartment during the different times of the day. Its old-world 19th century charm, high-ceilings with plaster ornaments and wooden oak floors make it unique. Moving along to the south part of this grand apartment you can enjoy the peaceful and quite space of the balcony bathing in sun. Romance and elegance can become part of you day-to-day life by simply making the choice of living in this particular area of Lisbon, Príncipe Real, the most cosmopolitan neighbourhood in Lisbon. Named after Queen Mary II’s firstborn, D. Pedro V, the Príncipe Real (Royal Prince) district is filled with gardens and colorful 19th Century mansions, and is home to one of the coolest selection of stores in Lisbon. Bustling with local antique shops and concept stores, bio markets, Portuguese designers and art galleries, it’s the place to go if you’re looking for something unique. Lisbon is rightly known as a trove of charming backstreets and terraced bistros, and none of its neighbourhoods are more alive than Príncipe Real, a shopper’s dream of design and clothing stores interspersed with quaint little cafés. All along the streets, colourful 19th century mansions pave the way as you wine and intertwine what feel like previously undiscovered corners, stumbling upon shop after shop of some of the coolest stuff you never knew you loved. This is the magic of this part of Lisbon; there are no crowds, no set itinerary, no extensive guides and maps, no one trying to tell you where to go. You’re free to explore, enter, exit and roam around at our own pace, stopping for a coffee or a snack here and there while you soak in the beauty of Príncipe Real.
