Haus zu kaufen in Lisbon, Portugal

There are many beautiful houses in Lisbon. Few surprise. The Centenary Mansion is one of them.
Seen from the street, little predicts what is behind the front door. The house gradually reveals itself through a succession of spaces culminating in something increasingly rare in the center of Lisbon: a private garden and a pool.
THE HOUSE
The restoration was guided by a simple principle: to preserve the architectural integrity of the house, while allowing it to function naturally and smoothly as a contemporary residence. Whenever possible, the original stuccoes, stone elements, woodwork, and period details were preserved, while infrastructure and modern comforts were discreetly introduced without ostentation.
The result is a house that has not lost any of its character. On the contrary, it offers an increasingly rare combination of historical authenticity and contemporary comfort, creating spaces that are simultaneously timeless and fully adapted to 21st-century living.
Built in the early 20th century, the Centenary Mansion belongs to an era when Lisbon's best urban residences were built with confidence, artisanal skill, and a clear intention to endure.
A carefully selected palette of Farrow & Ball colors complements the original architectural elements, creating timeless, elegant interiors perfectly integrated into the house's spirit.
From the most formal reception moments to the relaxed family daily life, the main floor combines generous proportions with natural and harmonious circulation between different spaces.
THE GARDEN
Private gardens are rare in Lisbon. At the Centenary Mansion, the garden is not just a convenience but an integral part of the living experience.
Beyond the main reception rooms, the mansion reveals a calmer facet of its character. Spread across the main floor and upper floors are five bedrooms and five bathrooms, four of which are en suite.
Generous in proportions and bathed in natural light, these spaces offer much more than comfortable sleeping areas. Some overlook the garden, others overlook the surrounding city. Together, they provide a variety of environments where one can read, work, relax, or simply enjoy the tranquility and privacy that are such a luxury in the heart of Lisbon.
Their sizes allow each room to become a space with a unique identity, balancing privacy and comfort and complementing the more social areas of the house.
Three independent entrances allow different parts of the property to function together or independently, providing a level of flexibility rarely found in a historic residence in Lisbon.
Whether used as a private family residence, as a guest house, or in a mix of residential and professional space, the layout easily adapts, always preserving the house's integrity and elegance.
This is a residence designed not only for how we live today but also capable of evolving and adapting to different circumstances over the years.
The neighborhood surrounding the Centenary Mansion discreetly asserts itself as one of the most interesting and characterful areas of Lisbon.
The careful restoration of the Desterro complex, the renowned 1908 Hotel, the Italian Embassy, and the arrival of Soho House reflect the growing appreciation of an area that combines historic architecture with contemporary cultural life.
Maintaining its authentic Lisbon character, the neighborhood continues to evolve, offering residents an increasingly rare balance between tranquility, architectural heritage, and access to the best the city has to offer.
