A living history

Built in the 1960s. Designed for today.

The building was born in the 1960s, when Peniche was growing around its port and fishing trade. The solid masonry load-bearing walls — which today keep it quiet and thermally stable — were kept; everything else was renewed: plumbing, electrics, thermal- and acoustic-insulated windows, kitchen and bathroom.

The result is a calm, bright, practical home, minutes from the sea, the schools and the ESTM Polytechnic of Leiria.

A place with history

From the Fortress walls to today's comfort

Built in the 1960s for the guards of the Peniche Fortress, this building carries a rare history: that of a city that lived between the sea and political imprisonment, and today embraces the future in freedom.

The solid masonry load-bearing walls — witnesses to decades of watch duty — have become the foundation of a calm, bright, welcoming home, where teachers, students and families find a refuge by the Atlantic.
