It's love at first sight. The prestigious new residential condominium of the riverside area is called Port Hillside Residence. It is built on the hillside of Vila Nova de Gaia, right next to the Porto wine cellars, and is the opportunity that you thought was unreachable: to be able to live with an unobstructed view of the majestic scenery of the Douro River and the city of Porto.
If the overall view is superb - the sight of the penthouses with their terraces overlooking the Douro is incomparable - the exterior arrangement of the condominium is the perfect synthesis between architecture, topography and landscaping. The gardens that frame the building, the common recreation areas, the jogging track, the padel court and the children's playground, as well as the wide balconies facing onto views to where the sun rises and where it sets, offer a differentiating quality of life in an urban space.
The development consists of just three blocks, giving it exclusivity and privacy. In total, there are 65 fractions with the typologies T2, T3 and T4, i.e. 2-, 3- and 4-bedroom properties, respectively. All apartments benefit from generous areas, careful design, luxury finishes, materials of excellent quality and attention to detail.
The Port Hillside Residence is located in the best area of Gaia, next to the historic D. Luís Bridge, close to main facilities, communication routes and commercial and cultural services. It will be completed in July 2019, but as of today you can contact LUXIMO'S Christie's International Real Estate and book your apartment.
Differentiating quality of life
If 80% of the population live in large urban centres, the great luxury of contemporary life is to come home and experience a living that shares the benefits of nature, clean air and silence. It is precisely this cocktail of well-being and rest that you find in the Port Hillside Residence, a unique window onto one of the most beautiful facades in the world: the city of Porto.
In this condominium, the balconies have a rare size, between 17 to 28 square meters. The common areas are not only decorative, but were conceived with real quality of life in mind. Hence, the jogging circuit of over 220 metres. All apartments are designed to take full advantage of the sun and natural light, have fully equipped kitchens, quiet central vacuum and an unusual added value: a refrigerator for storing your bottles at the ideal temperature.
Each building has 5 floors above ground and 2 parking spaces. Its natural garden base makes the garages an exceptionally pleasant place. Depending on the type of apartment, you can enjoy one, two or three parking spaces.
Luxury is also longevity, and for this the choice of materials competes: flooring, walls, carpentry, window frames and all the equipment were selected by standards well above average.
Choosing a home is like choosing a Porto wine - no variable can be underestimated. Visit the Port Hillside Residence and taste what your new life can be.
