Description
In the heart of Lisbon, where the tranquillity of a residential neighbourhood is combined with the proximity to the most vibrant areas of the city, stands this corner semi-detached house, inserted in the charming neighbourhood of Caselas. Surrounded by greenery, with the Monsanto Forest as a privileged setting, this property offers the perfect combination of serenity, functionality and a contemporary lifestyle.
With a surrounding garden, bright rooms, an independent studio and a project approved for expansion, this house presents itself as a unique opportunity to live in one of the most reserved and authentic areas of Lisbon.
Architecture and Housing Organization
A welcoming setting
The villa, due to its corner location, benefits from enhanced natural light and a garden environment that embraces the entire house. The feeling of space, both inside and outside, is evident as soon as you arrive. The facade, discreet but elegant, reveals the typical architectural language of the neighbourhood: simple lines, balanced proportions and a harmonious integration into the urban fabric.
Entrance floor - functionality and conviviality
Upon entering, we are greeted by a hall that leads to the social areas. To the left, the living room opens, large and inviting, with generous windows that establish a permanent dialogue with the outdoor garden. This space, designed for moments of family conviviality or reception of friends, conveys comfort and closeness, while maintaining an atmosphere of calm.
The fully equipped kitchen is strategically located next to the living room. Modern design meets practicality, providing not only a place to prepare meals, but also an environment to share them. The connection between kitchen and living room enhances a more fluid experience, characteristic of houses designed for contemporary daily life.
Also on this floor, we find a social, discreet and functional bathroom, which serves both residents and guests.
First floor - privacy and rest
Going up to the ground floor, the house reveals its most intimate side. There are three carefully distributed rooms, all of them bathed in natural light. Each room was designed to ensure comfort and privacy, preserving the tranquillity of those looking to rest after an intense day in the city.
Serving the three bedrooms, there is a complete bathroom, with quality finishes and generous size. The layout of the rooms ensures practicality and space optimisation, responding to the needs of families looking to combine comfort and functionality.
Atelier in the garden - an independent refuge
At the bottom of the garden, there is a space of a special nature: an atelier with a private bathroom. This annex, versatile and totally independent, opens up a range of possibilities: it can function as an office for those who work from home, a creative studio for artists or even as a one-off accommodation area for visitors.
The independence from the main house, combined with the direct contact with the garden, gives this space a particular charm and a functionality that is rare in Lisbon.
Comfort and Growth Potential
The villa already has air conditioning in several rooms, ensuring thermal comfort throughout the year. However, the real asset of this property lies in the expansion project already approved.
This project foresees the creation of a new area, with emphasis on a living room completely open to the garden. This intervention, designed to strengthen the connection between the interior and the exterior, will transform the experience of the house, enhancing the experience of inhabiting a space integrated in nature, where the green of the garden visually extends into the living room.
This possibility of growth is particularly valuable, as it allows future owners to shape the house to their lifestyle and needs, without giving up the privileged location.
The Garden - a green refuge in Lisbon
Surrounding the house, the garden is the protagonist. This space, which accompanies the entire surroundings of the villa, offers an atmosphere of retreat in the city centre.
Contact with nature is immediate: whether for an outdoor meal, for family leisure time or simply to enjoy the tranquillity of the space, the garden invites you to experience Lisbon in a different way.
The proximity of the Monsanto Forest amplifies this feeling, as if the urban green entered the property, reinforcing the idea of balance between city and nature.
The Caselas Neighborhood
A piece of Lisbon history
Caselas is one of Lisbon's best-kept secrets. Located between Belem, Restelo and Monsanto, this residential neighbourhood was born with its own identity, marked by tranquillity, community living and proximity to some of the most emblematic places in the city.
It is a neighbourhood that combines tradition and modernity. The architecture is marked by family houses and small-scale buildings, which gives it a distinct character compared to other more densely urbanised areas.
Unmatched quality of life
Living in Caselas means living surrounded by greenery, with Monsanto as a privileged neighbour. The proximity of this 'lung' of the city provides numerous opportunities for outdoor activities: hiking, cycling, picnics or simply moments of contemplation.
Just a 4-minute walk away is the most commercial area of the neighbourhood, where small cafes, pastry shops, restaurants and local shops keep alive the essence of a more traditional and genuine Lisbon lifestyle.
This balance between residential calm and the convenience of having services and commerce on your doorstep is one of the reasons why Caselas is increasingly sought after by families and professionals who wish to live in a quiet environment without giving up the proximity to the centre of Lisbon.
Accessibility and centrality
Despite its serene atmosphere, Caselas is strategically located. A few minutes away by car or public transport, there are areas such as Belem, with its riverfront and cultural heritage, or Restelo, with its urban amenities. Direct access to the A5 also makes it easy to connect to the city centre, Cascais or the airport.
A Singular Property
This corner townhouse in Caselas is not just a house: it is an invitation to a balanced lifestyle, where space, comfort and proximity to nature combine with the convenience of a central location.
The presence of the independent studio, the surrounding garden, the expansion project already approved and the proximity to Monsanto make this property truly distinctive in the Lisbon real estate market.
It is the ideal choice for those looking for:
A peaceful getaway within the city.
A villa with potential for appreciation and growth.
An authentic and familiar community environment.
The privilege of living next to the largest green spot in the capital.
Conclusion
Buying this villa in Caselas is more than buying a house - it's investing in a lifestyle. It is having the opportunity to live in Lisbon without feeling the weight of the city, surrounded by nature, but with all the conveniences within reach of a few minutes on foot.
The future owner will find here not only a space to live, but a space to grow, create memories and enjoy all that Lisbon has to offer.
At Lince Real Estate, we believe that every home tells a story. This one, in particular, tells the story of a unique neighbourhood, a house with a soul and a garden that becomes an extension of the home. It is a narrative that awaits new protagonists. Maybe it's yours.
