The laid-back neighbourhood of Bonfim is one to watch. Untouched by tourism, yet only fifteen minutes from downtown Porto by public transport, it offers a delightful blend of authentic charm and art-school cool with its population of elderly locals and students. You’ll find this home nestled here, just a sixteen-minute stroll from the azulene-tiled Chapel of Souls and well connected to the city centre by public transport thanks to the nearby Campanhã station, eight minutes away on foot.
Though compact, the interior promises comfort, with all the bells and whistles for a want-for-nothing stay. It’s cloaked in a calming colour palette of neutral tones and blessed by heaps of natural light. The open-plan living space is primed for relaxation with a cosy lounge and a modern kitchen, fully equipped with home chefs in mind. Hidden behind sliding wall panels, the bedroom promises serenity. After a restful slumber, slide open the floor-to-ceiling doors and step outside onto the balcony to sip your coffee in the sunshine before a day of adventure.
