Located just a five-minute walk from the Praça do Marquês de Pombal, this colourful home is an ideal base for those looking to experience a more local side to Lisbon. Inside, the living room pops in shades of mint and sage while wall-length windows let in plenty of natural light. The bedroom, too, boasts the same large windows and herringbone floors, with its striking black and sand-coloured walls creating a peaceful space to retreat to after a day of seeing the sights. After enjoying a soak under the shower in the subway-tiled bathroom and sitting down to coffee and a pastéis de nata at the Scandi dining table, head out to explore your surroundings. The Parque Eduardo VII is a five-minute walk away, the Santa Justa Lift is walkable in twenty-five minutes, while the shop and restaurant-lined Avenida da Liberdade is a thirteen-minute stroll from your door.
