SAO JOAO PENTHOUSE
Welcome to São João Penthouse — a radiant top-floor duplex with sweeping views over the rooftops of Alfama and the Tagus River. Perched on the top level of a meticulously rebuilt 19th-century building, this 106.5 m² residence is defined by volume, light, and flow. With a double-height living room, mezzanine study, and a south-facing balcony that opens to Lisbon’s most iconic horizon, this home offers a rare sense of elevation — both literal and architectural.
LIGHT, CLARITY AND RIVER VIEW
The living area is striking in its simplicity: a soaring space lined in pale oak floors, opening directly to the balcony and river beyond. The kitchen, finished in soft-toned stone and matte custom cabinetry, runs the length of the room with minimal interruption. Up a set of floating oak stairs, a mezzanine level offers space for a study or guest area under a sculptural ceiling pitch. Both bedrooms feature custom wardrobes and river views, while the bathroom is wrapped in handmade tiles and Lioz limestone. Every detail — from the curve of the stair to the flush storage solutions — reflects a confident design language rooted in function and light. Situated just above the Sé Cathedral and a short walk from the Miradouro de Santa Luzia, São João Penthouse is the culmination of a nine-unit restoration project designed to preserve architectural identity while delivering contemporary performance. It is a property for those who value space, light, and serenity — a rare vantage point above the city, at the centre of everything, yet removed from the noise.
