Casa do Castelo sits in an elevated position right next to the imposing Fortaleza do Pico only a few minutes walk from Funchal city centre with all its wonderful restaurants, shops and attractions. This is a charming quiet residential neighborhood known for its commanding views and many museums.
This stunning and spacious apartment is part of a modern building comprising of only two residential units. The entrance hall provides an immediate “wow factor” and the staircase leads elegantly and invitingly to the living room, located on the first floor, where the full length window leading onto the balcony, affords the most magnificent views of Funchal city, the bay, surrounding mountains and the sea. You have to pinch yourself to realise the view is real and not a beautiful painting!
Crisp white walls, wooden floors and stylish modern furnishings create a sense of tranquility and charm. Essentially all the main accommodation is located on the same level. In the living room a large sofa and comfortable armchairs provide an enjoyable sitting area where everyone can get together in front of floor to ceiling windows opening onto the glorious cityscape panorama. The living room has cable plasma TV, and high speed Internet is available throughout the flat. A large dining table seats up to eight people with a sleek well equipped kitchen conveniently located right next to it. There is also a separate utility room with a washing machine.
On the same floor as the living room and the kitchen all three double bedrooms are located, two of which have direct access to a balcony and one has a private bathroom with bathtub. There is a second large family bathroom with a shower.
The modern feel continues into the top floor where you find a large and airy attic space with roof windows converted into a perfect study and a leisure area with space for reading or games. There are also two futon beds here which are suitable for occasional usage for additional guests, children/teenagers. There is also a WC and basin on this floor.
Highly unusual in central Funchal the apartment comes with the benefit of two private parking spaces in an underground secure garage.
The whole impression is one of style and understated luxury. And of course the wonderful balcony where there is a constant temptation to sit and enjoy a good book or glass of wine, and to admire the stars as night falls.
Just imagine sitting on a balcony in downtown Funchal, with the most breathtaking view of the harbour, in a luxurious and comfortable modern apartment. This is the reality of Casa do Castelo!
