Description

Located in one of the most prestigious and sought-after areas of Foz do Douro, this villa stands out for its classic charm with traditional architectural features and its enormous potential for renovation. Situated on a plot of 245 m², the property combines historical character with the versatility to be transformed according to the future owner’s preferences. The villa is located in an ARU (Urban Rehabilitation Area) of Foz Velha, which allows for significant fiscal and financial incentives, such as reductions in municipal fees, benefits related to IMI and IMT, and access to specific support for urban rehabilitation. This framework further enhances the potential of the property, making it an excellent investment opportunity. The villa can be renovated in its current configuration or expanded, following an approved renovation project from the City Council of Porto. The project allows for the preservation of the beautiful classic facade while modernizing the interiors, creating spacious and functional areas spread over four floors: basement, ground floor, first floor, and second floor. Among the main features included in the approved project for this property, the following stand out: Private garden: A true rarity in this part of the city. The garden, directly accessible from the living room, offers a peaceful and private environment, perfect for relaxation and leisure.

Recessed floor with rooftop terrace: The approved project includes the creation of a recessed area on the top floor, with an exclusive terrace, ideal for relaxing or enjoying the privileged views of Foz. On the ground floor, the social area is spacious and functional, ideal for hosting friends and family, with a living room, a modern kitchen, and an office. The upper floors feature the bedrooms, including the possibility of creating a master suite on the top floor or transforming a large space into a customized leisure area. Situated in one of Porto’s most exclusive areas, the villa enjoys a privileged location, close to shops, services, prestigious schools, beaches, and just 5 minutes from the Mercado da Foz. All of this makes this property a unique opportunity, whether for personal residence or investment.
