This house, built in 1945, belongs to the historic center of Ílhavo. It is isolates, has two fronts and is built with raw earth bricks, a vernacular material typical from this region of the country. It is a beautiful example of the architectural style Português Suave, where the rigorous use of the defining elements of this movement are notorious.
