Rua Carmo is one of the busiest shopping streets in Lisbon, and this home is located right on the iconic avenue. The building was built by Portuguese architect Siza Vieira, and still retains its gorgeous traditional facade. Inside, you'll find great natural light in the communal area, and views of the bustling street below. The decor is simple yet comfy, and there's plenty of space to cook, eat and relax here between sightseeing expeditions. Plus, the master bedroom has its very own kitchen, lounge area and bathroom – this individual studio within the apartment is great for those that want a little more privacy. The Santa Justa Lift is just a couple of minutes away – in fact, you can see it from some of the windows – and Castelo de São Jorge is less than a twenty-minute walk away. Explore the streets on foot, stopping in at the local boutiques and cafés as you go, and you're guaranteed to fall in love with this vibrant city. Home truths: * There is a lot of noise coming from the street below – even when the windows are closed * This home doesn't have a perfect manual, but the host is working on improving it * At full occupancy, there isn't enough space to comfortably accommodate everyone on the sofa
