New Luxury Apartments in Pinhais da Foz

For some years now, there have been no new flats in the prestigious Pinhais da Foz neighbourhood, in Porto. LUXIMO'S Christie's now presents, in exclusive, an opportunity to live next to the Serralves Museum, between culture and nature.

Until recently, it seemed impossible to live in a new gated community, in the heart of Pinhais da Foz, one of the noblest residential areas in Porto. The modern AQUARELLE Private Condominium, scheduled to be completed between the end of 2020 and the first quarter of 2021, has changed this scenario, introducing the exclusive opportunity to live in a territory where culture and nature are part of everyday life. The Serralves Museum of Contemporary Art, with its 18 hectares of green areas, is right next door, hence the importance of the generous balconies of this complex.

The Private Condominium AQUARELLE is a residential development with only 14 flats, distributed over 6 floors, and with a private outdoor area of 700m2, for the enjoyment of families. It also benefits from a large entrance hall with a room for multipurpose use. The flats comprise the typologies T1, T2, T3 and T4, and all are distinguished by their extensive sizes. As an example, there are 1-bedroom flats with 85 m2, 2-bedroom flats with more than 105m2, 3-bedroom flats with 160m2 and 4-bedroom flats that exceed 220 m2. In the latter case, the distribution of the space is even the maximum exponent of exuberance: the living-room has more than 50 m2, the master suite has 19m2 and an added 7m2 of bathroom space. The balcony has 15m2 of sumptuous space.

All the flats have garages and storage rooms, equipped with electrical outlets. The largest flats have three parking spaces, with box. All fractions have energy classification A and all have the advantage of facing south. The price is another distinguishing feature in the current real estate market: it is possible to buy a property in this magnificent condominium from 297.000 euros.

With a project signed by the office GLCS - Architects, and construction in charge of the company of reference NVE, this new development designed to think of families who look for a unique lifestyle in a prestigious location, gives primacy to excellence in finishes and sophistication of details. Comfort, luxury and security are the keywords of the Private Condominium AQUARELLE.

The MOB kitchens are fully equipped with Siemens or similar appliances and the customer has the possibility to adapt the space to his own personality. The sanitary ware, as well as the taps, are signed by the prestigious ROCA, a leading company in the market since 1917. In the suites, marble stands out as the primary material. All the flats are enriched by solar panels with water heater for hot water production, air conditioning by VRV mini system and underfloor heating in the bathrooms. All the frames are made of Cortizo aluminum, considered the most resistant in the market, with thermal cut, double glass and motorized blinds. The solid wood flooring of Cumaro, characterized by a meticulous selection that combines the tradition of manufacturing with the modernity of the perfect finish. Finally, the building is equipped with centralized domotics with a security central, a fundamental aspect for the safety of residents, even in a city like Porto, recognized worldwide for its natural security.

Location is the greatest asset

Ricardo Costa, CEO of LUXIMOS Christie's says that "despite all the supremacy of this venture, the location is really its greatest asset", given that the Private Condominium AQUARELLE is inserted in an excellent neighborhood, refined and traditional, which offers the highest quality of life, surrounded by restaurants, cafes, bakeries, supermarkets and grocery shops as well as national and international schools, public transport and excellent accessibility. Ricardo Costa points out that "a new way of being is defined there, thanks to the proximity of a boiling Oporto and the experience of a calmer and safer city".

"It's no coincidence that it was in Pinhais da Foz that illustrious people chose to live, such as the poet Manuel António Pina, the painter Ângelo de Sousa or the writer Vasco Graça Moura", recalls the entrepreneur.

Just like the Praia D'Ouro Condominium, recently sold in Foz do Douro, the promoter once again elected LUXIMO'S Christie's International Real Estate, to exclusively market this new development, that will only house 14 families.
