Luxury palace to do up in Estoril, Portugal

Don’t miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to live in a traditional Portuguese palace, complete with original marble and parquet floorings, luxury features in stone and gorgeous period finishings. This 8-bedroom detached house is just waiting for the right buyer to come along and remodel it into the architectural wonder it’s meant to be.

Located in the most exclusive area of Estoril in Cascais, just 15 miles from Lisbon, the house boasts total privacy with its walled garden, tall green trees and ample outdoor space.

The house needs doing up with some TLC, but the main luxury features are already there, including a large swimming pool and plenty of terraces and balcony space. Built on a plot of 4,000 m2 (43,000 sq ft) and with a total built surface area of 1,398 m2 (over 15,000 sq ft), this unique house also has an excellent amount of natural sunlight and overlooks the sea and the valley of Estoril.

Distributed over its four floors are 23 separate rooms, eight of which are currently set up as bedrooms but with the possibility to add more. It is the ideal investment opportunity as it could easily be converted into a luxury condominium or a boutique hotel, but also serves just as well as a family home.

It’s impossible to visit this property and not imagine all the potential it has to be a first-rate luxury residence or a thriving local hub once it’s restored. Whether you’re looking for new investment opportunities in Portugal or want to buy a second home in one of the most exclusive private areas in Portugal, this palace could be just the thing for you. It’s on sale now for 6,295,000 euro.
