Originally desiSet atop a private hill in the tranquil countryside of Ponte do Rol, this refined contemporary villa offers sweeping open views, full privacy, and a seamless connection between indoor living and the surrounding landscape. Just 15 minutes from the beaches of Santa Cruz and under an hour from Lisbon, the property is perfectly positioned for those seeking both retreat and convenience. Originally designed by the acclaimed architectural studio Lema Barros + Castelo Branco and awarded the 1st Prize for Architecture by the Torres Vedras City Council, the house stands out for its sensitive integration into the terrain and the elegance of its minimalist form.
Between 2023 and 2024, it underwent a full renovation led by ARCH&DES, resulting in a sophisticated, energy-efficient, and technically advanced home that respects the original project while embracing the needs of contemporary living. The main residence spans 223sqm and features a master suite with walk-in closet and a large bathroom clad in natural marble, plus two additional bedrooms and a second bathroom. A discreet guest WC is tucked between the dining room and kitchen. The open-plan living space includes three distinct yet connected areas, all facing west and flowing naturally onto a teak wood deck that expands the living experience outdoors. The custom-designed kitchen combines clean-lined lacquered cabinetry with smart storage solutions, high-end appliances, and elegant materials. A central island and refined lighting scheme complete the space. Throughout the house, finishes such as wide oak flooring, underfloor heating in bathrooms, and thermal acoustic insulation create a warm yet sleek atmosphere. An annexed structure has been transformed into an independent studio with private entrance, bathroom, built-in storage, and exclusive deck — ideal for guests, a home office, or creative use. Outdoors, the professionally landscaped garden features exotic and aromatic plants, programmable lighting, and a barbecue area. The property includes an electric gate, a cypress hedge for added privacy, and is fully prepped for a future swimming pool. Technical highlights include a Mitsubishi heat pump for central heating, Wilo radiators, solar panel for hot water, ADF wood-burning fireplace with heat recovery, double-glazed thermal windows, electric shutters, a Securitas alarm system with CCTV, fiber internet, and a central vacuum system — all integrated into a smart home network. Located 10 minutes from central Torres Vedras and near high-quality local amenities such as Mercadona, fresh markets, and restaurants, the home is also within reach of several international schools (45–55 min). Its proximity to Lisbon and the Atlantic coast makes it ideal as a permanent residence, stylish weekend retreat, or high-end investment property on Portugal’s increasingly sought-after Silver Coast.
