Four Bedroom Villa With 150 M² Basement, Heated Pool And Garden In Birre, Cascais

A family home in Birre, a quiet residential neighbourhood of Cascais, with the beaches, the golf courses and the A5 to Lisbon a short drive away. Built in 2006 on a 665 m² plot, the villa has 493 m² over three floors: four bedrooms (three of them en suite), a heated pool, a lawned garden and covered parking for two cars.

Ground floor
The fully equipped kitchen has a counter with bar stools and opens directly onto the garden. The living and dining room has a ceiling height of over 5 metres, large glass doors to the garden and pool terrace, and a stone fireplace for the cooler months. The master suite is on this floor, with its own access to the garden. A guest WC completes the level.

First floor
Two bedrooms, each with its own bathroom, well suited to children or guests.

Basement: approx. 150 m²
The basement adds about 150 m², around 30% of the built area, and is what makes the house so flexible. It is a single open level, reached by an internal staircase and with its own kitchen, so it works as a house within the house:
A lounge with fireplace, for family evenings or friends
An open kitchen, for entertaining
An office corner, for working from home
A bedroom with full bathroom, for guests or visiting family
A laundry room
A wine cellar
Storage space
It can be a lounge and work level for the family, or an independent apartment for guests and extended family, with its own kitchen, bedroom and bathroom, while the upper floors stay private.

Garden, pool and parking
The garden is lawned, with trees and hedges around the plot and an automatic irrigation system. The property has automatic gates. The heated pool, with its wooden deck and terraces, extends the swimming season, and the covered parking has room for two cars.
Comfort at home
Heat pumps provide heating, cooling and hot water. The windows are double-glazed, with external blinds on part of them. The house has electric blinds. Energy class B-.
