Uptown 32 occupies a plot on Rua da Bolívia in the São Martinho parish of Funchal, some 220 metres up the slope from the coast. Seven floors of apartments sit over a row of shops and offices at street level.
The roof is given over to residents: a pool, sun loungers and planted borders, with a wide outlook across the city. Down below, a private hospital and a public garden are both about 150 m from the door.
Inside, the choice is between a one-bedroom layout of about 70 m² and two-bedroom homes of 104 to 107 m². Each one opens onto a balcony, has a laundry space and comes with at least one parking space.

In the T1, the living room and kitchen share one open space of about 28 m². The T2s pair a living room of about 23 m² with a separate kitchen of about 7 m², and bedrooms across both types measure 12 to 15 m².
