Some properties sell on square metres. This one sells on what can’t be bought: a collection of fine hand-painted tilework — São Filipe, 17th century, Viúva Lamego — running through three floors of a house that carries history in every room. In total, three floors, eight rooms, four bathrooms and a garage — a house built to host on a grand scale. Step in through a hall lined with azulejo staircases, and move on through bedrooms with English oak flooring, bathrooms dressed in collector’s tiles, and a cellar where gatherings take on the air of another era — a brick-tiled bar, a fireplace, a room with the spirit of an intimate lounge. Outside, the estate keeps giving: a pool, a generous garden with mature trees, walls hand-built in Sesimbra stone, and not one but two spaces made for bringing people together — a stone-built pavilion with a wood-fired oven, ready for parties, christenings and weddings, and a private barbecue by the house, with the hills as a backdrop. A fully independent one-bedroom annex, furnished and with its own fireplace, offers guests their own space — or an owner extra income. Solar panels and borehole water take care of the rest: running costs stay well behind you here. With views over the city and Palmela Castle in the distance. A place to live in — or to host in. Come and see it for yourself!
