At the Moinho de Vento Flats development, renovation takes on a whole new dimension: preserving the character of the building, enhancing comfort, and creating a unique living space. The plot is located next to the Leça da Palmeira Fort, 200 meters from the beach and the tidal pool. In the surrounding area are the best restaurants in Leça and the Naval Club. The perfect encounter between architecture between and nature Álvaro Siza Vieira`s masterpiece. Carved into the rock, it blends naturally with the Atlantic landscape of Leça da Palmeira. Moinho de Vento Flats is the result of the renovation of the former Leixões Bakery on Rua do Moinho de Vento, complemented by the construction of a new building facing Travessa dos Dois Amigos. The project preserves the complex’s original identity, retaining its volume, main façade, and entrance through the side courtyard, striking a careful balance between heritage and modernity.
