Description
Building for Sale in the Historic Center – Rua de Aviz, Évora
Due to its prime location, this building presents an excellent opportunity for a hospitality project, clinic, or other services, considering the available construction area suitable for rooms, lounges, and necessary infrastructure.
Rua de Aviz is one of the city’s main arteries, close to local shops and within a 5 minute walking radius of the University of Évora, the City Hall, Giraldo Square, the Roman Temple of Diana, and Évora Cathedral.
This is a 17th-century building in need of rehabilitation, currently vacant and free of any encumbrances.
It benefits from two façades: the rear faces Rua do Cano, and the main façade — with noble architectural features — faces Rua de Aviz. Seen from above, the building is U-shaped. The main structure extends perpendicularly to form a lateral wing adjacent to an interior courtyard (resembling a traditional “saguão”), which connects to the structure facing Rua do Cano.
The main façade is sober and features limestone masonry.
The ground floor previously housed a traditional retail space, with access to the interior patio. The first floor features balconies with iron railings, reminiscent of Pombaline architecture, while the second floor has sash windows. Inside, the first floor includes a grand noble hall and two other rooms adorned with frescoes depicting various themes: Portuguese royalty, mythological figures, and naturalist elements.
The private chapel includes decorative elements in carved marble, sourced from another location.
From the interior of the main building, one can access a rooftop terrace/miradouro with sweeping views over the city and its iconic monuments.
