Alfama Yellow House

Our Story

Once Upon a House Group focuses only on historical properties.

As it could not be any other way, it is present in one of the oldest neighborhoods of Lisbon Alfama.
Through its apartments – Alfama Yellow House – it seeks to tell the unique story of this place, from its beginnings to the present day.

As you walk through Alfama you will discover the customs, the secrets and the sounds of one of the oldest Lisbon quarters, dedicated since the beginning to the diversity of cultures, habits and customs. This is a neighbourhood that has always been outside the wall.

A genuine scenario composed of steep and narrow streets, with luminous sidewalks, full of colors and tradition. From the small doors of the houses to the clothes spread on the windows, from the tiles on the façades to the irregular sidewalks, Alfama has its own identity that everyone who visits it falls in love with.

The small cafes full of people looking for a drink, the Tagus River as a backdrop, the noise of Lisbon, a city that never stops. Stop for a glass of wine and delight yourself with the beauty of the lusco-fusco at the end of the day.
These are some of the calling cards not to be forgotten.
