The essence of a new tradition The new residential development ESSENCE is emerging in Antas, in the east side of the city of Porto, which is becoming increasingly modernised and gaining a new lease of life, without forgetting its history full of memories and traditions. This gated community condominium comprises: • Four five-storey buildings • 84 apartments • Studio, 1, 2, 3 and 4-bedroom apartments • Interior areas from 43 sqm to 205 sqm • Majority of the units have an outdoor space • Parking. ESSENCE unfolds naturally along the hillside, with its four blocks made up of 84 apartments, surrounded by green areas and maintaining the essence and tradition of the neighbourhood. In the common areas, besides the gardens, the development also features a gym, kids club, smart post office, multifunction room for various uses, and an electric car charging station. Of contemporary design, the singular residential project ESSENCE, created by Porto’s iconic architectural design studio OODA, provides a unique living experience and a comfort obtained through carefully selected materials and fixtures. The excellent relationship between the interior and exterior, achieved through its outdoor gardens, balconies with abundant light and rooftop terraces, with a singular panoramic view, maximise enjoyment of the whole of its potential. Located in Antas, in the east side of the city of Porto, ESSENCE is close to Alameda das Antas, Estádio do Dragão, São Roque Park and the Matadouro area, where plans for its conversion, including museums, art galleries, offices among other buildings, will give it a new life. Currently, with a large variety of shops, services, transport, excellent accesses and a great urban redevelopment, this area of Antas will ensure quality and security for its residents. Looking out over the River Douro, ESSENCE perfectly merges the contemporary with the past to create new traditions.
