Located in the city center of Lisbon, building number 70 on Rua Capitão Renato Baptista, primarily residential, was the subject of a rehabilitation and expansion project. The property will thus have 3 floors above street level, instead of the current two floors, also taking advantage of the attic space.
Building Renovation in Lisbon City Centre
Being in a very poor state of conservation, major structural works will be necessary, and regarding the façade tiles, which are clearly damaged, they cannot be preserved, thus planning for a plastered and subsequently painted façade.
Regarding the interior spatial organization, a single apartment is proposed for the entire property, instead of the existing two. Due to a severe lack of car parking space in the neighborhood, the project forgoes some useful area to create a private garage on the ground floor, also adding an office, storage and laundry rooms, a bathroom, a living room equipped with a kitchenette, and a suite with natural light and access to the back garden.
The first floor is entirely dedicated to the social space of the dwelling, with two large living rooms, a kitchen, and a bathroom, and access to a large terrace on the rear façade.
The second floor proposes four large suites and a small plot of land with access from the master suite. This floor also allows independent access to the attic, with ample storage space.
