My Fair Flores

Sitting right on Rua das Flores – one of Porto’s most beautiful, popular streets – this stunningly bright apartment not only puts you in a wonderfully central location from which to explore the city but offers a true taste of Portuguese living too.

Stepping into the compact yet wonderfully curated living area, you’ll immediately be dazzled by the amount of natural light pouring in through the pair of whitewashed French doors that lead out onto a narrow, private balcony. Equipped with a table and chairs, this privileged outdoor space is perfect for enjoying your morning coffee while indulging in some people-watching or sipping a sundowner while admiring the fading light glistening across the colourful, tiled buildings opposite.

The main bedroom offers equally enchanting street views to wake up to each morning with its own sets of French doors, while the window-side desk space here offers a most inspiring spot from which to catch up on work.

When it comes to things to see and do nearby, you need only walk out your front door to discover countless shops, restaurants and bars, while Clerigos Tower, Porto Cathedral, the Livraria Lello bookstore and bustling Cais da Ribeira are all within a ten-minute walk away.
