The building itself has a direct relationship with the river, being an old industrial building that was used to manufacture wooden barrels of Port wine. As it was an industrial building, it had a large span but few windows, so the intention of the project was to open more windows, to create more and better views and sunlight. However, this was done with great care for the context, and after a long study of the location and similar buildings, so that it would be fully integrated and not disturb the urban landscape. The same care was taken with the façade colors, materials and window frames, in the tradition of Gaia's riverside industrial architecture.

The building has 20 units - two commercial units and 18 apartments, with 8 parking spaces.

All the housing units are one-bedroom apartments, making the most of the available building space. To take advantage of the views, 12 of these units are duplex apartments offering river views from the bedrooms.
For all this, and the rapid growth of Gaia's real estate market, this is a great investment opportunity.
What's more, this is a unique property, as the riverbanks of Porto and Gaia are now highly protected with small estates to build on.
Vila Nova de Gaia, or Gaia as it's known to locals, is a city in the district of Porto, and one of the largest cities in northern Portugal.

Located on the south bank of the Douro River, just opposite the city of Porto, Gaia is best known for its Port wine cellars, fantastic beaches and stunning views of Porto's historic center. It has been growing at a rapid pace, along with the tourist boom in Porto and Portugal, making it highly attractive to tourists and residents alike, being only a few minutes away from Porto, via the various bridges that connect the two cities: two with freeway access, one for local traffic, one for pedestrians and public transport, one for railways and a historic bridge designed by Gustav Eiffel. Gaia, despite being part of the Porto Metropolitan Area, has its own municipal administration and town hall, with dedicated public services, such as one of the main Central Hospitals in Northern Portugal.
