We present to you this distinguished duplex apartment, strategically located within walking distance of the center of Santo Ovídeo, in Vila Nova de Gaia. It stands out for its unusual configuration, luminosity, and generous spaces, coupled with an extraordinary state of conservation. Thus, upon entering this property with two facades, we are greeted by an airy central hall which, connecting the social area with the more private area, provides a remarkable harmony of interior design, protecting it from the labyrinthine and claustrophobic atmosphere that plagues so many other apartments. Presenting the social side, on one side, we have a kitchen with a pantry and access to a sunroom (laundry room), and on the other, a spacious living room with a fireplace, naturally providing a comfortable division between the living and dining areas, both rooms with independent access to the "crown jewel" of this apartment: a large and sunny terrace with unobstructed views, facing west, from where it is possible to see the sea, and where you can have family meals, enjoy a glass of good wine, or simply relax. On the opposite side of the floor, in its more private area, we find three bedrooms, two of them with access to a shared balcony, served by two bathrooms (one full, with a bathtub, and another a guest bathroom). Going up to the first floor (the top floor of the building), we find a cozy and spacious living room and, on the opposite side, two bedrooms (one with a wardrobe), served by a full bathroom with a shower. It is worth noting that access to this floor can be made both from inside the apartment and from the outside, as it has a separate entrance, which provides considerable privacy while also allowing for various ways to generate income from the property. This apartment also has a storage room (on the first floor of the apartment/top floor of the building) and two private parking spaces in the building's garage. Given its location very close to the city center and its interior layout, it is a versatile property from an investment perspective, suitable for both permanent residence and for generating income through short and long-term rentals.
