Estevão Vista - 1 bedroom apartment in Lisbon

Sitting among the attractive tiled rooftops of Lisbon's Alfama neighbourhood, this sun-drenched duplex apartment boasts dazzling views towards the Rio Tejo and a prime location.

The upper tier leads onto your own private terrace, that's ideal for relaxing, while the interior is rich in wooden textures that bode well with a fresh colour palette and modern finish.

Estevão Vista's setting, beside a playpark for the kids and ambient riverside Fado houses, offers you up an authentic slice of that famously laid-back Lisbon culture.

The apartment is located a couple of minutes walk from the waterfront, nestled in a pretty street in the Alfama district.

Traditionally a fishing community, Alfama still retains most of its quaint 18th century architecture; terracotta rooftops, little cobbled streets, with shops and flower-filled balconies.

A stroll uphill takes you to the Castelo de São Jorge fortress, with fantastic city views, or visit the market in Campo de Santa Clara. This area has frequent public transports.
