Contemporary Family Villa On 1,015 M² Of Private Grounds — Nogueiró, Braga

A 427 m² family villa set on 1,015 m² of private grounds in Nogueiró, one of Braga’s most sought-after residential areas — and land of this size, this close to the city, has become genuinely rare.

Braga is northern Portugal’s technology and innovation hub, home to the University of Minho and to the International Iberian Nanotechnology Laboratory, the world’s only intergovernmental laboratory dedicated entirely to nanoscience. The city combines that economy with a historic centre minutes away, the Atlantic coast within half an hour and the Peneda-Gerês National Park on its doorstep. For a family relocating to the north of Portugal, this is the address that makes the move work.

THE HOUSE, FLOOR BY FLOOR

Ground floor — the social level. An entrance hall with fitted wardrobes and a guest bathroom opens into a generous living and dining room, filled with natural light and anchored by a fireplace. The contemporary kitchen is fully fitted with high-end Bosch appliances and completed by a wine cellar.

Upper floor — the private level. The principal suite has its own private balcony. Two further bedrooms, both with fitted wardrobes, share access to a second balcony and are served by a full bathroom. A landing with built-in storage keeps the floor uncluttered.

Lower floor — the versatile level. A dedicated home office, a gym that works equally well as a second office or additional bedroom, a full bathroom, an independent laundry, a pantry and storage area, and a closed garage for two cars. With its own bathroom and separate access, this floor can function as a self-contained space for guests or extended family.

ALREADY DONE FOR YOU

The energy work that most buyers inherit as a project has been completed here: 12 photovoltaic solar panels, a 300-litre heat pump for domestic hot water, and solar water heating. Comfort is covered by full central heating and air conditioning across multiple rooms. Double-glazed windows, electric shutters, a new automatic gate, an alarm and an installed video surveillance system complete the picture.

THE GROUNDS

1,015 m² with excellent sun exposure and room for several cars to park inside the property rather than on the street. The plot has the space and the orientation for a swimming pool and leisure area — ready to be designed to your own taste rather than inherited from someone else’s.
