In the historic centre of Azambuja, Casa do Paço is a truly distinctive property, defined by its scale, architecture and deep connection to Portuguese history.
With approximately 1,400 m² of built area and around 2,500 m² of gardens and outdoor spaces, this former manor house offers an uncommon scale for an urban property. Its 23 rooms, including 10 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms, its various living and reception areas, the large barn and other outbuildings form a remarkable ensemble with enormous potential for a complete restoration and a new concept of use.
Built on the foundations of an ancient palace, whose origins date back to 1310, the property is deeply connected to the history of Azambuja and the former Portuguese nobility. It has remained in the same family for five generations. During the French Invasions of 1810, it is believed to have served as the headquarters of Marshal Masséna, adding a particularly significant dimension to its historical journey.
The current configuration of the house dates from the 18th century, and it still retains the presence, scale and various architectural elements that evoke the importance this residence once held in the history of Azambuja. More than simply preserving the past, its current state allows for a new interpretation of this heritage.
The size and configuration of the spaces offer different possibilities: a grand family residence, restoring its original vocation; a private condominium with a unique identity, responding to the growing demand for properties with character and transformation potential; or a boutique hotel, where architecture, history and Portuguese authenticity can become part of the experience.
The location adds another particularly interesting dimension to the property. Set within the historic centre of Azambuja and approximately 50 minutes from central Lisbon, it benefits from excellent access and proximity to the capital, while retaining the authenticity and character of a historic town.
Casa do Paço offers the opportunity not simply to acquire a historic property, but to inherit a legacy... and have the privilege of writing the next chapter of its history.
