This beautiful home is located halfway between Porto city centre and Gaia's beautiful beaches. It is also near all major shopping malls, supermarkets, and local shops. It is ideal for a large family or two, three, four (or even five!) couples travelling together. If you like being close to the city centre but want to enjoy the peace of the countryside, this is the home for you. A video of this property is available on YouTube: "Spacious House in Vila Nova de Gaia". This pristine house comprises an open plan living room and hallway, a spacious kitchen, four large double bedrooms (one on-suite), an additional double room in the attic and three bathrooms; it also offers a large outdoor living space with a large newly built barbecue and free parking. The comfortable uncluttered living room is fitted with a real wood fireplace (not needed in the summer, but very cosy at other times of the year). All rooms are beautifully decorated with good quality furniture. The kitchen is a great space! It is fully equipped with all modern appliances. With a walk-in pantry and a very large fridge and freezer. You will be able to store food for a full house and enjoy eating inside or spilling out into the terrace, overlooking a marvellous Portuguese Eucalyptus wood. The newly built barbecue area, with a large pizza oven, is a spacious, private and welcoming outdoor living space, and it can be used all year round. Enjoy barbecuing fresh fish from a local market, eating a freshly baked pizza or even a traditional Sunday roast! There is a beautiful lemon tree, and you are welcome to use lemons for seasoning fish and salads or for making refreshing drinks!

My name is Artur. I am from Porto and I am a concert pianist. Apart from performing and teaching, I love reading, travelling, and spending quality time with family and friends. I like meeting new people and hearing about their cultures and personal experiences. I am a very easygoing guy. I love cooking and having a good conversation over a glass of wine. You will have the entire house just for yourself. During your stay, I will be happy to recommend good local restaurants and other places of interest in Porto and nearby cities.

The neighbourhood is extremely quiet and peaceful, which is ideal if you want to be close to the city but also enjoy the feeling of being in the countryside. Some of the rooms, the kitchen and the outdoor living space overlook a beautiful wooded area. So, not much more than a bird can be heard at this location. All the neighbours are very quiet and friendly, and this large semi-detached house will allow you to enjoy some privacy.
