Portuense is everyone who feels at home whenever he comes to town. An open city, which is a gateway to the world, but also a city with a soul, which is a safe haven. And now there are houses for sale once more in the heart of Downtown Porto, which represents an extraordinary opportunity for those who want to enjoy the river and sea breeze, and, at the same time, the unique vibration that blends cafés and cosmopolitan terraces with traditional trade, in a unique gathering with hospitable, genuine and increasingly young people. For the first time in many years, the centre of Porto is regaining population, reversing the trend of most European cities.
The new development Alegria Plaza, built in one of the oldest and most typical neighbourhoods of Porto, with Studios apartments, T1 and T2 studios that have, at the top, terraces with stunning views over the Douro and Ponte do Infante, is on sale exclusively in LUXIMOS Christie’s International Real Estate, and presents itself as the moment many have been waiting for: the time to be able to feel, inside one’s home, all the energy, dynamism and emotion of a cultured, rich city with an unmistakable character - the first Atlantic city of the North of Europe.
Living in this Porto city, whose architecture has suffered the influence of the filigree carved in granite by the Italians and of the tones left in the houses by the English, is a doctrine that gets embedded in the skin. It means having self-esteem and feeling the special pleasure of walking through Foz, up the waterfront until Ribeira and never losing the dazzle with the historical centre. It means embracing traditions and adhering to a way of being and speaking that can’t live without generosity and frankness. It’s being independent but supportive. It's being conservative and progressive at the same time, and always have an opinion of your own. It is being able to react to adversity, having causes an enormous pride in a colourful and interclassist city that permanently regenerates and reinvents itself, always keeping its identity based on granite, which has made it historically unshakable, noble and loyal. Living in this Porto city, which is both baroque and visionary, is a state of mind. And it is possessing the rarest luxury: time.
There are few cities like this, which bring together the best of both worlds: they are magnificent to live in and perfect to invest. Porto, a leader in quality of life, consolidated as a tourist destination and placed in the Top 3 of "Financial Times" magazine as far as investment is concerned, is one of these rare cities. The Alegria Plaza development, in Praça da Alegria, responds correctly to the two purposes: that of the young families who appreciate urban life and that of the investors who want a safe and immediate return.
Alegria Plaza is an elegant, modern and sophisticated building, with an entirely unique location - near trade and services, as well as the metro station, a few minutes away from the Douro River and with fast access to the VCI - and with a remarkable view, designed to think of those who truly appreciate the life that the city centre has to offer. Those who value being where everything happens.
It comprises urban apartments, with high-quality finishes and sophistication details integrated into a building with a doorman video system, elevator, garage, and storage area. The apartments on the top floor have magnificent terraces overlooking Porto. Inside, details are kings of architecture. Each room provides an environment of refinement, comfort, and quality so that at the end of the day you always feel that your day was worth it. The kitchen is equipped with BOSCH appliances, the sanitary ware is suspended and the windows have double-glazed frames and thermal cut. You can see that nothing in the design and space was left to chance.
Those who want to buy a house in the heart of the city and live in a quiet neighborhood, with great accessibility and all the amenities of new development, will find their best solution here.
