This wonderful property has panoramic sea views over the ocean and Praia das Maçãs stretching to the Berlengas Islands and Mafra Palace. The rear of the property borders the Protected Park of Sintra. The property is secluded and secure but close to all amenities being only a 5 minute drive from the beach and 10 minutes away from the fairytale town of Sintra.
The villa is constructed over 3 floors and a gallery level which due to skilled architectural design and maximization of Planning Rules almost trebles the registered area of the property. The property has extensive external dining terraces back and front. Stunning picture windows flood the villa with natural light illuminating the exceptional architectural features within the villa.
Built to the highest standards and with exceptional attention to detail, not only in terms of finishing materials but also the thermal, acoustical and structural elements that have been planned to work at maximum efficiency. A 100 meter deep well makes the property self-sufficient in water, under-floor heating within the villa is managed by an economic heat exchange pump. All windows are double glazed and an automated thermal swimming pool cover are just some of the energy efficient features of the property.
The property includes a separate apartment with its own kitchen and independent external access .The apartment can also be accessed from within the main house to form part of it. The total property has five bedrooms of which four have en-suite bathrooms. The main house has a large living/dining area with a feature fireplace leading by a staircase to an expansive mezzanine gallery that can be used as an office, artists studio or gymnasium, all with spectacular views. Fully equipped breakfast kitchen and integral garage complete the built property.
The gardens that surround the villa are mature and well laid out. There is a fully automated irrigation system. Central to the main garden is an 18m2 heated swimming pool.
Head from Lisbon towards Europe’s most westerly point with the Atlantic beyond and you enter the enchanting scenery of the Serra da Sintra – a verdant forested upland that has long been the inspiration of poets. Here, in a romantic medley of architectural styles, palaces, castles, stately homes and well-to-do homes stand proudly in leafy grounds or tucked along lush country lanes.
The cobbled lanes of Sintra’s old town are strewn with pretty houses, fascinating curio shops and little cafés, luring many visitors. But the main attraction is the National Palace, its unmistakable conical chimney stacks standing proud over the town. Loftier still, crowning Sintra’s mountain peak, the Palacio de Pena is a colourful 19th century palace built in an eccentric Romantic style and almost Disney-like in appearance.
Historically, Sintra’s elevated hills offered a cool retreat for Lisbon’s aristocrats and gentrified society in the height of summer. Today, it still retains its status as a highly desirable area for the well-heeled, and properties here are much sought-after.
