Cais Building | Premium Apartments in Rehabilitation Adjacent to the Marina of Figueira da Foz
In one of the most iconic and prestigious locations in Figueira da Foz, a truly distinctive residential project is emerging. The Cais Building results 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 of the Marina, Largo da Câmara Municipal, and the heart of the historic center.
Preserving the entire exterior architectural identity that has made it an urban landmark across generations, its traditional stonemasonry features and elegant arched openings for doors, shopfronts, and windows have been retained. From façade to interior, the building has been completely rebuilt, giving rise to a modern residential development comprising 17 dwellings of T0, T1, and T2 typologies, plus a commercial space on the ground floor.
The intervention embraces a concept that combines the elegance of a rehabilitated classic with the technology and comfort of the most modern constructions—resulting in a product designed for those who value location, exclusivity, energy efficiency, and construction quality.
The apartments were designed to maximize natural light, benefiting from high ceilings and a carefully selected range of materials and finishes. In social areas and bedrooms, highly resistant vinyl flooring will be installed, complemented by thermal and acoustic insulation membranes that enhance interior comfort. Kitchens feature a contemporary design with straight-line ceiling-height cabinetry, integrated LED lighting with motion sensors, Silestone worktops and 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, floor-to-ceiling large mirrors, and adjustable LED lighting systems (intensity and color temperature), complemented by motion sensors.
Technology plays a central role throughout the project. Each apartment will be fitted with a home automation system enabling remote control of the main entrance door, lighting, climate control, blinds, video intercom, household appliances, and even the Bose ambient sound system. Climate control will be provided by Mitsubishi equipment, supplemented by underfloor heating in all units 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 equally prioritized, with an expected energy rating of A+, achieved through high-performance PVC window frames with double glazing filled with argon gas, electric blinds, motorized blackout curtains, and full building insulation.
Access to the various 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 wooden cladding and carefully integrated LED lighting.
Outdoors, residents will enjoy a pleasant shared terrace equipped with a barbecue, support counter, sink, dining area, sun loungers, and a dedicated play area for children—creating the perfect setting for social interaction and leisure.
Location is undoubtedly one of this project’s greatest assets. Situated right in the historic center of Figueira da Foz, it allows all daily trips to be made on foot and on level ground. The Marina is 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.
