Olivais Lisbon residential buildings with parked cars, green area, and pedestrian walking along the street

Residential · Local

Olivais

Mid-century planning shaped Olivais around freestanding apartment blocks, generous open space and a clear separation between buildings and streets. Later housing areas added different scales and layouts, but the overall fabric remains more spacious and deliberately organised than Lisbon’s continuous traditional blocks.

Stands out

  • A strong number of schools across the neighbourhood.

Who it's for

  • You want relatively affordable housing, renting or buying.

What to consider
