House T2 in Campanhã, Porto
Porto, PortoHouse T2 in Campanhã with 49 m²







Located in Travessa do Ilhéu, in São Roque da Lameira, this single storey house is part of one of the most historically relevant residential complexes in the city of Porto: the Bairro do Ilhéu, built between 1934 and 1935 and recognized as the first neighborhood of economic houses in Portugal, organized according to a logic of low density and single-family housing. Almost a century later, this matrix is still clearly legible. Travessa do Ilhéu preserves a rare residential scale in an area that is now part of one of the areas of greatest urban transformation in Porto. São Roque da Lameira and Campanhã currently combine historic neighborhoods, public facilities, new residential operations, large mobility infrastructures and structuring investments that are redefining the perception of the eastern part of the city. It is a ground floor house with three rooms and patio, intended for housing and located on a plot of 106m². The house has 49m² of gross private and construction area, occupying an implantation of 49m², with the remaining 57m² corresponding to the uncovered area/patio. The ground floor configuration and the direct relationship between house and patio are the main functional attributes of the property. In a city where a growing part of the residential offer is made up of apartments, this typology allows for an experience closer to that of a small urban house, with private outdoor space and absence of common condominium areas. The Contumil Metro and Train Station is approximately 10 minutes away on foot, ensuring connection to Line F of the Porto Metro and the urban rail network. Estádio do Dragão Station, one of the main transport links in the eastern area, is approximately 1516 minutes away on foot, allowing access to lines A, B, C, E and F of the Metro network and direct connection to Baixa, Trindade, Casa da Música, Matosinhos, Maia and the Airport. In the immediate surroundings there is also the Ilhéu stop, served by several bus routes. At the road level, the proximity to the VCI/A20, Dragão junction, Circunvalação and accesses to Freixo allows quick access to the center of Porto, Vila Nova de Gaia, Maia and the main metropolitan motorways. Campanhã Station and the Campanhã Intermodal Terminal are also just a few minutes away, offering national and regional rail connections and an important road transport network. The area today has a considerably wider commercial offer than its originally residential matrix would suggest. The location presents a particularly strong offer for families in terms of education and health The Oriental City Park, with about 16 hectares, develops along the banks of the Rio Tinto and integrates pedestrian and cycling paths, functioning today as the main large park in the eastern area. Nearby is also the São Roque Park, with approximately 5.2 hectares, recently expanded and improved, preserving its gardens, viewpoints and well-known labyrinth. Travessa do Ilhéu brings together an unusual combination: a small house with a patio inserted in a low-density historic complex, but located in the center of one of the main urban regeneration processes currently underway in Porto.
