Courtyard Apartment

, Avenidas Novas

Set on the first floor of a traditional azulejo-clad building in Avenidas Novas, this 160 m² apartment was fully renovated in 2021 by ALA.rquitectos, an architecture studio known for clear lines, considered use of colour and a strong sense of spatial logic. Their work brings a contemporary sensibility to the property while respecting the character of the original structure.

Organised as a compact T5, the layout offers flexibility for different living needs. Smaller bedrooms can be combined to form larger suites, while the existing configuration functions well for families or those needing dedicated home-office space.

The renovation focuses on practicality and design clarity: curved transitions, built-in elements and balanced materials create a cohesive atmosphere without overstating the architectural expression. At the centre of the apartment, a beautifully tiled courtyard brings in natural light and offers a calm outdoor moment that enhances the overall quality of the home. The result is a space that feels updated, solid and ready to use without requiring further work.

Avenidas Novas is one of Lisbon’s most connected and convenient districts, combining residential calm with immediate access to everyday amenities. El Corte Inglés, Saldanha Market, the Gulbenkian gardens and Parque Eduardo VII are all within easy walking distance. Nearby metro stations, São Sebastião, Saldanha and Picoas, ensure excellent mobility across the city.

With strong demand from professionals, families and international residents, and proximity to offices, universities and cultural institutions, the location offers reliable rental potential and long-term value. A thoughtful architectural renovation in a prime Lisbon neighbourhood that is functional, well-designed and well-positioned for both living and investment.
