This two-story townhouse, or "mini villa," is in Belém, a neighborhood on the Tagus River that is famously marked by its eponymous 16th-century waterfront tower, and by the Monument of the Discoveries, which commemorates Portugal's legacy of sea exploration. The farthest west of Lisbon's civil parishes, with a 2011 population of 16,528, Belém is about four miles from the city center. The neighborhood is famous for its brightly colored houses, seafood restaurants and Pastel de Nata custard tarts from Pastéis de Belém, the legendary pastry shop. It is also near the Gothic Jerónimos Monastery and is a 30-minute train ride from Praça do Comércio, Lisbon's main town square.

Size: 1,010 square feet

Price per square foot: $840

Indoors: This two-bedroom, one-bath attached townhouse was built in the late 1940s and fully renovated in 2022, including new structural reinforcements.

The ground level includes the living room and kitchen, tiled in a red geometric pattern that continues to the private patio, which can accommodate a small dining table. The kitchen appliances, including an under-the counter fridge and a dishwasher, are made by Bosch. A floating wood staircase leads to the first floor, dedicated to a primary bedroom, a bathroom with a glass shower and subway tiles, and a custom-built walk-in wardrobe. The top floor has two mansard windows, a beamed ceiling and a loft-like flexible space that can be adapted as a second bedroom or an office or study.

Outdoor space: A 121-square-foot patio is reached from the kitchen

Costs: Currently €200 ($214) a year, but subject to change upon resale
