Cais Building | Premium Apartments in Rehabilitation Next to the Figueira da Foz Marina
In one of the most iconic and highly valued locations in Figueira da Foz, a truly distinctive residential project is taking shape. The Cais Building emerges from the comprehensive rehabilitation of one of the city’s most renowned buildings—long identified by locals as the historic "Singer" building—and occupies a privileged position at the entrance to Praça 8 de Maio, offering unobstructed views over the Marina, Largo da Câmara Municipal, and the heart of the historic city center.
Preserving its entire exterior architectural identity—which has made it an urban landmark across generations—the building retains its traditional stonemasonry features and elegant arched openings for doors, shopfronts, and windows. From façade to interior, the building has been entirely reconstructed, resulting in a modern residential development comprising 17 apartments of typologies T0, T1, and T2, plus a commercial space on the ground floor.
The intervention embraces a concept that blends the elegance of a rehabilitated classic with the technology and comfort of the most modern constructions, yielding a product designed for those who value location, exclusivity, energy efficiency, and construction quality.
The apartments were designed to maximize natural light, featuring high ceilings and a carefully curated selection of materials and finishes. Vinyl flooring with high resistance will be installed in social areas and bedrooms, complemented by thermal and acoustic insulation membranes enhancing interior comfort. Kitchens feature a contemporary design with floor-to-ceiling straight-line cabinetry, integrated LED lighting with motion sensors, Silestone worktops and wall cladding, and fully built-in Bosch appliances—including induction hob, oven, extractor hood, combined refrigerator, dishwasher, washer-dryer, and electric water heater.
Bathrooms were conceived to deliver comfort and sophistication, equipped with wall-hung sanitary ware and recessed Grohe faucets, full-height oversized mirrors, and adjustable-intensity and color-temperature LED lighting systems, complemented by motion sensors.
Technology plays a central role throughout the project. Each apartment will be fitted with a smart home system enabling remote control of the main door, lighting, air conditioning, blinds, video intercom, household appliances, and even the Bose ambient sound system. Air conditioning will be provided by Mitsubishi equipment, complemented by underfloor heating in all apartments and a Mechanical Ventilation with Heat Recovery (MVHR) system for indoor air renewal and purification. All apartments are also pre-wired for future installation of solar panels.
Energy efficiency was likewise a top priority, with an expected A+ energy rating, achieved through high-performance PVC window frames with double glazing filled with argon gas, electric blinds, motorized blackout shades, and comprehensive building insulation.
Access to different floors will be via a modern, silent, state-of-the-art Liftech elevator, while the entrance lobby has been designed to convey refinement and exclusivity, using wood cladding and meticulously integrated LED lighting.
Outdoors, residents will enjoy a pleasant shared terrace equipped with a barbecue, support countertop, sink, dining area, sun loungers, and a dedicated space for children—creating the perfect setting for socializing and leisure.
Location is undoubtedly one of this project’s greatest assets. Situated right in the historic center of Figueira da Foz, it enables all daily trips to be made on foot and on level ground. The Marina lies just 110 meters away, the beach approximately 750 meters, the Municipal Market 450 meters, Pingo Doce 500 meters, and the railway and bus stations about 650 meters.
Priced between €215,000 and €595,000, the Cais Building represents a unique opportunity for those seeking a second home by the sea, a solid investment in one of the city’s most sought-after areas, or simply the chance to live in an iconic building where history meets innovation.
