Description Chesterfield Cajó: Lisboa

Located within a tower block in the Braço de Prata district of Lisbon, this apartment is a prime example of elegant simplicity.

All throughout, the stark white walls are perfectly soothing and make for a blank canvas against which more characterful touches — like the large house plant and nautical artwork — really pop off. The kitchen is both large and well-equipped enough for cooking up a feast when you want a break from the city's restaurants.

The home's location is another major perk. The centre of Lisbon only takes half an hour to reach on the metro, while the up-and-coming area of Marvila, where abandoned warehouses have transformed into workspaces, artisan breweries and art galleries, is just a ten-minute walk away. The Tagus riverfront is a similar amount of time away, too.

Home truths:
