A three-storey building in Cascais, vacant and ready to transform

The Residence
A sizeable asset in an area that is no longer being built
This is a three-storey building at Rua de Alvide 207, in an established residential part of Cascais. It offers 396 m² of gross private area on a 472 m² plot, with a 172 m² footprint. The property is sold vacant and the horizontal property will be constituted as part of the sale — meaning the buyer receives a clean base, with no tenants and no inherited arrangements, and decides what to do with it. The surroundings have been settled for decades: shops, services, transport and beaches within minutes, and quick access to the main roads. Cascais train station is about 1.1 km away and the old town with the marina 1.2 km.

Upper floor
The private part of the building, with bedrooms and bathrooms. The current layout leaves room for reorganisation around whatever project the buyer defines.
Ground floor
The social floor: living rooms, kitchen and access to the outside. This is the level that opens directly onto the yard and garden.
Lower floor and grounds
Service area, garage for one car and a landscaped yard. The 472 m² plot means the outdoor space can be part of the project rather than an afterthought.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What investors ask first.
It means the building is currently registered as a single property, and the division into autonomous units will be constituted as part of the sale. In practice it is the step that lets the buyer sell or let individual units separately later on. We go through the framework and timings in detail at the viewing.
There is scope to study additional building volume, and it is one of the things that makes this asset interesting — but it is not a guarantee of buildability. Any increase depends on a specific urban-planning and technical study, on a project, and on licences and approvals from the competent authorities, which the buyer is responsible for pursuing. We do not sell this property as though the extension were approved, because it is not.
No. It is sold vacant, with no tenants and no lease agreements in force. The buyer has immediate availability to start works, refurbishment or repositioning.
It is a 1960 building that was used as housing and is now empty. The photographs show the real state, unstaged. The energy rating is E, consistent with construction of that period — which is precisely the margin that makes refurbishment worthwhile.
Three, mainly: refurbish and upgrade the existing building while keeping its volume; constitute and exploit the units separately, for sale or letting; or, should urban-planning feasibility be confirmed, develop something larger. We will run through the numbers on each scenario with you.
Yes. There are no restrictions on foreign ownership, financing is generally available to non-residents up to about 70% of the appraised value, and we accompany the whole process — from the NIF to the promissory contract and the deed.
