Cradled in the Sintra mountains and wrapped in the dense forest of the Sintra-Cascais Natural Park, this Cascais estate offers a rare sense of enclosure, where exotic plant life, profound silence, and a natural atmosphere define the setting, and the view stretches to the nearby sea. Spanning five buildings across an 8,485-square-meter plot, the property functions as a private refuge that remains within easy reach of Lisbon and the Estoril Coast.
Listed at €28,000,000, the sale of this Luxurious Fairytale Retreat is handled by Prosas Palacianas, a real estate agency specializing in distinctive high-end residences along Portugal’s most sought-after coastline.
A Fairytale Refuge Amid Forest and Sea
Behind its forest setting, the estate reveals a considered composition of living spaces, water features, and grounds designed for privacy and calm.
An Enclosed Estate of Rare Scale
The property comprises five buildings connected by a cobblestone path that carries both pedestrians and vehicles between structures, with two points of access to the outside.
Across 1,865 square meters of built space, the residence offers 19 bedrooms and 20 bathrooms, a scale that lends itself to extended family living, guest accommodation, or a private hospitality venture. The deep silence of the surrounding forest and the exotic flora frame each building, reinforcing the sense of a secluded world set apart from the coast beyond.
Water Features and Landscaped Grounds
Beyond the interiors, the grounds hold two outdoor swimming pools and one indoor pool, along with a water tank, technical areas, and agricultural support buildings. The 8,485-square-meter lot unfolds as dense woodland peppered with exotic plant life, offering a landscape that feels closer to a private nature reserve than a conventional garden. This combination of water, forest, and open grounds creates a setting geared toward relaxation, entertaining, and a lifestyle immersed in nature.
A Coveted Position on the Estoril Coast
From its secluded position in the hills, the estate opens onto one of Portugal’s most connected and prestigious coastal regions.
Seclusion Within Reach of Lisbon
Malveira da Serra places the estate just 25 minutes from Lisbon airport and 20 minutes from the center of Lisbon, while Cascais Airport, dedicated to private aviation, sits 20 minutes away. Guincho beach and the village of Cascais are each roughly five minutes away, and daily conveniences including a supermarket, bakery, and pharmacy are within a two-minute reach.
The surrounding area offers an exceptional concentration of leisure options, from the Penha Longa, Quinta da Marinha, and Estoril golf courses to the Estoril Coast and Quinta da Marinha equestrian centers, Cascais Marina, and the Estoril racing circuit. For families, St. George’s School and the Montessori School Lisbon are both around six kilometers away, while Cascais Shopping Center and the elegant shops of Lisbon’s Avenida da Liberdade lie within a 10 to 20 minute drive.
A Resilient Luxury Market
Cascais ranks among Portugal’s most exclusive and expensive real estate markets, and current data reinforces its standing. According to market reporting, average asking prices in Cascais reach approximately €7,260 per square meter, with prime enclaves such as Quinta da Marinha commanding considerably more.
The wider Portuguese premium market recorded a year-on-year price increase of 17.7% in the third quarter of 2025, while international buyers accounted for roughly 27% of demand for high-end homes in the first quarter of 2025. Sustained foreign interest, constrained supply, and Cascais’s enduring appeal as the historic summer retreat of Portuguese royalty continue to underpin values across the Estoril Coast.
A Private World Above the Sea
This is a rare opportunity to own a secluded forest estate of exceptional scale within minutes of Lisbon, Guincho beach, and the Estoril Coast’s finest golf and equestrian facilities. Combining profound privacy, expansive grounds, and a position in one of Portugal’s most resilient luxury markets, the property suits buyers seeking a tranquil refuge with lasting value.
