A superb private villa set in the very centre of the historic old town.

The stunning Casa do Governador offers a rare opportunity as it is one of the few properties set in the centre of the old town offering total seclution, with gardens, a large swimming pool and private parking for several vehicles. This property really is a jewel in the heart of Lagos.

The accommodation has 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms, it is fully air conditioned and has a large open plan living space for all of the family to enjoy.

Outside there are private gardens, terracing with a BBQ for al-fresco dining and roof top sea views.

The beach is just a 2 minute walk away and all of the amenities that Lagos has to offer are right on your doorstep.
