António Milheiro da Costa
Luxury home in Foz. Cozy, bright and comfortable, it has a small open patio, a large balcony on the first floor and a rooftop balcony with magnificent views of the Douro River, its delta and the Atlantic Ocean. It has three double bedrooms, two on the entrance floor, one of which is a spacious suite with glass doors to the patio, and one on the top floor. It has 2 full bathrooms and a service WC. Welcoming and open common room for a fully equipped kitchen with high quality and functional appliances. It is a villa located in a quiet area of ​​the city, in Foz Velha, a short walk from the river, the sea and the garden of Passeio Alegre. With public transport to the city center close by, speciallyy the picturesque tram that runs along river-side all the way into the heart of the city. Great for anyone who wants to visit and get to know the city and live simultaneously as a true Porto native, in one of the most typical high-end areas of the city. Excellent starting point to explore on foot the beautiful blue flag beaches of the city of Porto and to take long walks along the river and sea. The area is well supplied with all kinds of public and commercial establishments.
I was born and raised in the city Porto. My biggest passions are music, films, basketball, food and cooking. I'm an enthusiast of wine and gin. Fanatic traveller, always looking to book my next trip. Find people fascinating, love to meet and interact with new ones.
The house is located in one of the most beautiful areas of the city of Porto, in Foz do Douro, specifically in Foz Velha. The area is characterized by being typically residential, with twinned dwellings similar to each other, respecting an architectural norm and identical aesthetics. It is essentially composed of narrow streets and sidewalks, where the neighbors all know each other. The house is a 1 minute walk away from Jardim do Passeio Alegre, 5 from the beach and the sea and is right at the delta of the Douro River, which takes you on a marginal East to the Lower and Center of the city, and to North along the beaches of Matosinhos.
