With its entrepreneurial, industrial feel, Marvila and Beato is the place for young couples, creatives and entrepreneurs who will benefit from the area’s intellectual and creative vibe. As this district is set to change dramatically over the next 5-10 years, there is strong potential for capital appreciation. As a comparison, Santos, a similar up-and-coming area in Lisbon, saw prices rise from €6,000 per sqm in 2013 to €11,000 per sqm in 2019 following a period of regeneration. Plans are in motion, led by Italian architect Renzo Piano, to shift the shipping containers and revitalise the waterfront with a 9-hectare park. Train stations are connecting Marvila to the rest of the city as well as fast-lane buses which take locals into the central Cais do Sodre and Time Out Market in 20 minutes.

Besides the spacious art galleries, the area is known as Lisbon’s Beer District. Home to artisanal breweries such as Dois Corvos, Lince and Musa, one of the trendiest breweries where you can try many different beers while enjoying live music. Atelier Henrique Sá Pessoa is the creative studio of the 2 Michelin-star-chef, Henrique Sá Pessoa. It offers tailor-made dining experiences to pre-booked groups. Try Lisbon’s most mysterious restaurant, Aquele Lugar Que Não Existe where it is forbidden to take pictures – you will definitely have an eccentric dining experience! Or, feast on Argentinian steak and dance the tango at the vibrant, El Bulo Social Club. As an Urban Art neighbourhood, stroll around the area to be delighted by so much talent and shop Lisbon’s vintage design scene on Saturday afternoons at Cantinho do Vintage.
