Tiles & Towers: Porto

This Porto pad is perfect for a couple, a couple of couples or even a small family seeking style, substance and a great base from which to sightsee. Featuring an open-plan kitchen, dining and living room – think whitewashed walls and wooden floors – this Portuguese pied-à-terre has you covered when it comes to both entertaining and relaxing. What’s more, from this fantastic fifth-floor home you’ll also be treated to unbeatable urban views from your private terrace.

Why not try your hand at replicating a classic Invicta in the all-white kitchen before gathering around the wooden dining table in the light-filled living space? Head out to the terrace to enjoy glasses of sweet port wine in the sunshine while gazing out across the rooftops towards Clérigos Church and its iconic 75-metre bell tower.

Those wanting to explore all that Porto has to offer will relish this home’s central location within easy reach of the traditional Mercado do Bolhão, the Dom Luís I Bridge and the Rua de Santa Catarina. Discover Porto’s alley-woven historic heart or sample one of its many steakhouses, brunch spots of port cellars – whatever you do, you’re bound to fall in love with edgy yet opulent Iberian city.
