_International property of the week: Historic apartments for sale in Lisbon

The Avenida da Liberdade in Lisbon is among Europe’s most prestigious grand boulevards, comparable to the Champs-Elysées in Paris.

Shaded by trees and lined with designer shops and prestigious hotels its elegant nineteenth century buildings and mosaic pavements present an iconic image of the city. 

The area has an iconic history for film-lovers too as the long-term home for Lisbon’s film festivals and several cinemas and theatres.

About the property

One of the oldest and most beautiful is Odeon, built immediately off the Avenida in 1927 in Lisbon’s traditional and grand Pombaline style and now nearing the completion of its transformation into a magnificent residential building.

Odeon will have a destination restaurant in the 25-metre atrium that was once the stage and 10 luxurious apartments with one to three bedrooms and a total living area of 112 to 232 square metres.

High ceilings, wide windows and contemporary high-end finishes keep interiors light and fresh and along with a full-time concierge and a state of the art valet parking system allow 21st Century living in an emblematic historical building.

Almost a century after its last staring role, Odeon is ready once more for its close up.
