This real estate project is the result of a detailed market analysis and projections that indicate high viability and attractive returns for investors. The plot of land is situated on one of the highest points of the Encostas do Douro, providing excellent views of the Douro Valley and the Douro River itself. This exceptional location also offers convenient access to one of Portugal's largest cities, Porto, as well as proximity to medical services, university hubs, leisure and cultural contexts, and a network of public services and commerce, that ensures a safe, comfortable, and complete living experience. It offers much more than simple accommodation; it is the perfect blend of housing, tourism, experiences, and local culture in Portugal. With the start of the 2024/2025 academic year, the Fernando Pessoa University (UFP) will take a significant step in the expansion of higher education in Portugal, by inaugurating a new integrated master's degree in Medicine in Gondomar. This development reinforces the attractiveness of the municipality of Gondomar and presents an unmissable opportunity for real estate investors, especially in the serviced apartments segment. Located less than 3 km from the new faculty of Medicine, Serviced Apartments Encosta do Douro stands out as an ideal option for students, healthcare professionals and visitors who need practical and comfortable accommodation. The proximity to the Teaching Hospital of Fernando Pessoa University (HE-UFP), where practical classes will be held, is a decisive factor that increases the strategic value of this investment.
