Bright and beautiful, this home’s warming wood details make it a unique place to base yourself in Porto. Honey-hued, the exposed beams add character and charm to the elegant modern space and recall this building’s 19th century past. The mezzanine split is well-executed, ensuring both floors benefit from the natural light, while the furniture creates plenty of opportunities to sit down, relax or work. We love the cosy reading chair for lazy afternoons and the large wooden dining table for meals shared at home. When it’s time to explore, you’ll be absolutely central, steps from the iconic Aliados Avenue. Walk two minutes to Trindade Church and three minutes from Mercado do Bolhão, an old traditional market. Plus, for connecting to other parts of the city, the Aliados metro station is just three minutes away.

Home truths:
*The master bedroom is in the mezzanine and not fully closed off from the rest of the space
*There is a pull out single bed in the master bedroom – it's probably best suited for a child
*At full occupancy, two guests will be on the sofabed in the living room – however, as this arrangement will be less private for everyone, we think this home is best suited to a family
*Please keep noise to a minimum after 10 pm
*This home has a set of internal stairs – it may not be suitable for those with limited mobility
*Please ask your host about paid parking on the premises
