Exklusive Moderne Villa In Der Letzten Bauphase In Douro Marina | Gaia

Located near Douro Marina, in Foz de Gaia, this truly exceptional residence brings together a privileged setting, contemporary architecture and a remarkable relationship with the surrounding landscape, expressed through a unique sense of sophistication and exclusivity.
Some homes stand out because of their location. Others because of their architecture. This property combines both qualities and adds something even rarer: the ability to surprise.
This architect-designed project embraces a contemporary, sophisticated and timeless language, where every line, opening and space has been carefully conceived to create a truly unique living experience. Its discreet and elegant exterior architecture does not immediately reveal what awaits inside — a succession of spaces designed to provide comfort, privacy and a privileged relationship with the surrounding environment.
The open-plan living area establishes a seamless connection with the landscape, offering privileged views over the river and the sea. Ascending to the rooftop, a terrace leads to a swimming pool with panoramic views over the surrounding landscape, Porto and the sea. More than a leisure area, the rooftop becomes a place for contemplation and entertaining, with a lounge area designed to fully enjoy the landscape and natural light throughout the day.
One of the project’s most distinctive elements is found precisely in the swimming pool: a strategically positioned skylight at the bottom creates a unique visual connection with the living room beneath, over which the pool appears to be suspended. A striking architectural solution that reinforces the property’s singular identity and transforms the experience of living into a continuous dialogue between the different spaces.
Outside, a private garden embraces the entire house, reinforcing the sense of retreat and privacy. At its lower level, the garden incorporates a dedicated seating area, with natural rock outcrops providing a distinctive backdrop and creating an intimate, natural setting designed for moments of relaxation, socialising and contemplation.
The materials and construction solutions further reinforce the property’s identity: terrazzo flooring, minimalist aluminium window frames, hydraulic underfloor heating, landscaped garden and entrance courtyard, a two-car garage and high energy efficiency, with an A+ rating.
More than a residence, this is a proposition for those seeking a different way of living — where architecture, design, natural light, privacy and nature coexist in perfect harmony. A true contemporary retreat, set within one of the most privileged locations on the southern bank of the Douro.
There is also a particularly rare opportunity: the property is currently under construction, allowing the future owner to follow the process and personalise selected finishes according to their own taste and preferences. An opportunity to take part in the creation of a home that, from the very beginning, was conceived to be unique.
A truly exclusive proposition for those who are not simply looking for a house, but for a special place with its own identity, where architecture and landscape become an integral part of the experience of living.
