In Boavista, one of Porto's most sought-after addresses, an early 20th-century mansion has been preserved and given a contemporary building alongside it, set in a private garden of lawns and footpaths. Two eras side by side: the classical façade, with Déco-inspired reliefs and wrought iron, and a new volume clad in schist and timber battens, opening onto the trees.
There are just 16 apartments, T3 and T4 — three in the mansion, seven duplexes with private gardens of up to 129 m², two T3s and four penthouses on the top floor. Gross private areas range from 142 m² to 259 m²; every T4 has a private lift, and every unit comes with a private box garage for 3 to 5 cars.
The condominium has a 24-hour concierge with security. Minutes from Casa da Música, the Serralves Foundation and Parque da Cidade. Prices from €1,785,000 to €3,620,000.
