6 bedroom house

Nestled in the bustling Estrela on a quiet lovely street, this residential four -story property is more than a house, it´s the inspiration of a story to be written. Few buildings tickle the imagination more than this fantastic house of great character whose original owner was a ropemaker – to which the hand painted tile mural on the façade bears witness. Located in sought after Estrela near Campo Dorique, this house is of unique character, exuding charme and four floors of amazing views of the gentle sloping hills of Estrela.

Upon entering, the charm of the building becomes immediately evident as we orient ourselves in the ample hallway with a broad wooden staircase leading up to the next floor. Walking through the hallway leads us past larger and some smaller bedrooms, opportune as studies or individual bedrooms, as well as a large bathroom that can easily fit a large family. The last room towards the back of the building is bathed in sunlight and can easily be converted to a large family or communal room with high ceilings and wooden floors or a master bedroom with private bathroom. The generous space opens up to a long balcony with heartbreakingly beautiful views of Estrela and the river above the treetops. The entire attraction of Lisbon´s unique skyline, its gentle slopes and vivid colors are on display. Views that create dreams of their own.

Taking the staircase to the lower floor lands us in what can only be called an enchanted space – the entire back and lower floor leads to a patio and wild magical private garden with a separate annex which can be transformed into a full additional housing unit with bathroom. Planned as an open space kitchen and living room, this space exudes a feeling of community, shared meals with friends and family and laughter in gentle summer nights of Lisbon.

Heading up the stairs (the building permit plans and allows for an elevator) brings us to yet another floor bathed in Lisbon´s unique light. Similarly cut as the floor underneath, we encounter a very large luminous open room at the end of the hallway, with a balcony with the heartbreakingly beautiful views of the colorful Estrela silhouette mirrored against the river Tejo.  Whether to create a reading room and library, an office or a bedroom is uniquely up to the owner who can follow the intricate layout of the project or keep the existing structure to maximize on the amount of bedrooms.

The last floor the stairs take us to is a gorgeous and light attic, fully transformable into an open space or several bed and bathrooms. At this highest point of the house, the views are breathtaking and make for the unique backdrop of an enchanted story to be told.

This incredible residential house is being sold with a full approved project.
