Lisbon, Lisbon, Portugal

3+2 bedroom apartment with 288 sqm of gross private area, magnificent city views, parking, and a 399 sqm garden with swimming pool, dry sauna, wet sauna, gym, and guest house, in the heart of Castelo, one of Lisbon's seven hills.

The apartment and garden have undergone a complete transformation, breathing new life into this 19th-century building. The renovation project boldly combines historical charm with contemporary design, using high-quality materials to create an elegant and tasteful living space. Original features like ornate ceilings, decorative cornices, and high ceilings have been carefully preserved, honoring the building's rich heritage.

Occupying an entire floor, the apartment boasts two separate entrances and a thoughtful layout. As you step into the entrance hall, your gaze is immediately drawn to the lush garden beyond. The heart of the home unfolds before you, with a fully-equipped kitchen flowing into a generous 36 sqm dining area and an impressive 40 sqm living room. A corridor leads to the private quarters, housing three en-suite bedrooms and a convenient guest bathroom.

The dining and living areas are true showstoppers, offering direct access to the garden and pool through massive pivoting doors. These architectural features not only frame breathtaking views but also flood the spaces with natural light. The rooms are a masterclass in blending old and new: soaring ceilings and intricate cornices harmonize beautifully with tall baseboards and heated solid wood floors. The kitchen, clad in luxurious marble, connects seamlessly to the dining room through closable doors, allowing for both open-plan living and privacy when desired. The bright living room goes a step further, featuring additional doors that open onto a balcony with unobstructed views and lead to a home office, making it a versatile space for both relaxation and work.

The master suite is a true retreat, sprawling across 30 sqm of luxurious space. Three large windows bathe the room in natural light, with two opening onto a balcony that offers breathtaking views. The suite is completed by a lavish marble bathroom and a generous walk-in closet, providing the perfect blend of comfort and elegance. Not to be outdone, the two additional suites (18 sqm and 19 sqm) each boast their own walk-in closets and marble bathrooms. These feature unique touches like sinks carved from solid stone blocks and the comfort of underfloor heating. Throughout the apartment, a state-of-the-art built-in air conditioning system ensures year-round comfort.

Perched on the hillside, the garden is a testament to innovative design and sheer determination. What once seemed an impossible dream has been transformed into a private oasis and an architectural marvel. This two-tiered wonder showcases the perfect marriage of form and function. The lower level houses a garage with a rotating platform for effortless parking, while the upper level unfolds into a stunning garden and leisure area. The crowning jewel is the infinity pool, which appears to float on sculptural concrete pillars rising from the level below. As you swim, you're treated to a living canvas: the castle and picturesque hillside homes create a natural amphitheater, bathed in sunlight by day and transformed into a twinkling wonderland of city lights at dusk.

In this enchanted garden, besides the 270º view it offers, we find the pink lioz marble floor, with large carefully applied pieces, steps and stonework of whole blocks, and circular cuts that allow trees planted on the lower floor to grow towards the sky. In a slightly elevated area of the garden, it's possible to contemplate the view and the moon, in complete comfort, by the warmth of the fire pit located there.

On the lower floor, completing the area between the majestic pillars of the pool, is the dry sauna, wet sauna, and a gym.
