Full Description
Amazing split-level attached villa with 10 divisions and attic, with a build size of 133.08 m2 + private patio
The villa has immense potential, with lots of opportunities to add enormous value, such as:
* Upgrading the property (limited works) and keeping the property as a single-family home
* Dividing the property into two autonomous units, which requires licensing from the City Council
* Harness the attic potential (possibly introducing mansards, a mezzanine or opt for the creation of double ceiling heights on the 1st level for example)
* Reinstating the outdoor space by removing the current enclosure covering the patio area
Excellent exposure (south-facing) with ample outdoor space (currently covered)
Set in the historic social neighbourhood of Ajuda-Boa Hora, a project of the New Republic and completed by the Estado Novo
The expansion project of 1958 introduced the following improvements:
* Additional level (1st floor) and attic
* Front-facing balcony with small river view
The two independent entrances, solid structure (concrete), incredible ceiling height and contagious natural light throughout, were all preserved
Located on a very quiet street with a national monument, integrated into the special protection area of the National Palace of Belem
Served by all types of local commerce, transport, services, universities, and close to the riverside
Next to several national monuments such as the Belem Palace and the Ajuda Palace

The current layout of the house allows it to be used as two independent apartments (with their own independent entrances) or as a single-family villa
The villa has immense potential, with lots of opportunities to add enormous value, such as:
* Upgrading the property (limited works) and keeping the property as a single-family home
* Dividing the property into two autonomous units, which requires licensing from the City Council
* Harness the attic potential (possibly introducing mansards, a mezzanine or simply opt for the creation of a double ceiling heights on the 1st level for example)
* Reinstating the outdoor space, by removing the current enclosure covering the patio area
Depending on the needs or objectives of the future buyers, the villa can have an array of uses, layouts, and purposes, all with enormous potential for return on investment.
The superb location, close to gardens (including the Jardim Botanico d'Ajuda), several universities, important national monuments and other tourist-related infrastructures, make this villa an excellent investment opportunity, regardless of the usage one intends for the property (i.e. for personal use or to generate income).
Furthermore, the value of any upgrading or improvement works may be higher or lower (it can be very little) depending on the property's desired purpose.
A monthly retainer is charged for a parking space in the neighbouring building (it is not mandatory to maintain this retainer).
