Commanding prime position atop a verdant peak within the Grândola range, you’re sure to feel like the king or queen of all you survey in his fresh, welcoming, 3-floor home with private pool.

Accompanied by olive, cork and scarlet oak trees and blessed with awe-inspiring views, the home and its grounds provide the perfect scene for leisurely gatherings and unrivaled relaxation.

As you watch the last rays of the day disappear with a glass of wine, it is not uncommon to be serenaded by the light tinkle of sheep bells and sometimes you can even hear waves lightly roaring in the background.

This bright and airy family home with high-beamed ceilings and wooden farmhouse furniture befits its rural surroundings with natural fibre upholstery, tumbled Lioz marble mixed with rustic wood finishes, and the use of lime and shale to detail the exteriors.

Despite its soothing simplicity, this home has the stamp of a modern architect. You will dream sweetly and deeply in this peaceful mountain home.
