Apartment T2 in Vila Nova de Gaia with elevator

New 2-Bedroom Apartment with Balcony, 8th Floor — The Urban Yard, Vila Nova de Gaia

A 2-bedroom apartment with 75.1 sqm and an 8.8 sqm balcony, located on the 8th floor of The Urban Yard development in Vila Nova de Gaia. East-facing (morning sunlight), with a private parking space included and A+ energy rating. Just a short walk from Arrábida Shopping, the Arrábida Bridge, and the future Arrábida metro station (Rubi Line).

New construction, with completion scheduled for 2028. Off-plan purchase with phased payment terms and time for financial planning.

Smart use of space

The floor plan has been designed to make the most of the 75 sqm. The open-plan living and dining room with integrated kitchen offers 29.2 sqm — an unusually generous social area for a 2-bedroom apartment — with direct access to a continuous 8.8 sqm balcony. The two bedrooms are well balanced in size (10.9 sqm and 10.2 sqm), with the main bedroom also opening onto the balcony. Two bathrooms (en-suite and guest), a clear advantage over 2-bedroom apartments with only one WC.

What sets this apartment apart

The 8th floor provides more natural light, less street noise, and greater privacy. The east-facing orientation ensures morning sunlight, ideal for those who want to start the day with natural light in the living room and bedrooms.

Finishes above the market standard:

• Natural oak wood flooring throughout
• Kitchen equipped with Siemens appliances (oven, induction hob, fridge, extractor fan, and dishwasher)
• Silestone quartz countertop, more durable and easier to maintain than granite
• Air conditioning in every room
• Heat pump for hot water, offering significant savings compared to gas systems
• Wi-Fi enabled video intercom (answer the door from your smartphone)
• Bathrooms featuring Sanindusa sanitary ware, Bruma taps, and tempered glass shower screens
• Private parking space on level -2 included
• A+ energy rating (lower energy costs)

Rubi Metro Line: the Arrábida station is right here

The new Rubi Line of the Porto Metro will connect Santo Ovídio (Gaia) to Casa da Música (Porto), with completion scheduled for 2028 — the same year the development is delivered. The Arrábida station is just a few minutes' walk away. This is a public investment of €487.9 million and one of the most significant drivers of property appreciation on the south bank of the Douro in the coming years.
