CENTENARY PALACETE PRESENTATION

TOWNHOUSE IN LISBON

This regal townhouse, known as Centenary Palacete, was constructed in 1901. It stands in a privileged location in the heart of Lisbon in Arroios, described by Time Out as “the coolest neighbourhood in the world”. The townhouse is in the middle of Rua Antero de Quental, anchored by the Italian embassy at one end and the former Desterro monastery/hospital at the other. Desterro is currently undergoing a “rebirth”, which, when finished, will open up new public spaces, restaurants, retail, offices and residential flats. The iconic Lisbon fish restaurant Ramiro sits in front of Desterro, and across the road, the 1908 Hotel has recently opened. The entrance to 1908 is on Largo do Intendente, which will soon add to its neighbours the first Soho House in Lisbon. The townhouse has undergone a two-year refurbishment program inside and out. It comprises four floors and 444 m² of usable internal space. There are three main entrances from the street, numbers 19, 23 and 27. Number 19 serves as the entrance to the mezzanine floor prepared as a self-contained apartment. The studio space accessible from number 23 historically has been used for retail/office accommodation. Following its renovation, diverse opportunities exist to use the ground floor studio as a gym, gallery or other workspace. For those needing car parking, this option is also available.
