Restelo

Restelo, Lisbona, Lisbona, Portogallo

Magnificent single family villa, with a 700 sqm area and a 119 sqm dependent gross floor area, totaling a 779 sqm construction gross floor area. It is located in the charming Restelo´s neighbourhood and placed in a mainly residential street with some embassies' head offices. This villa was built from scratch, according to a project signed by Nini Andrade e Silva, where the contemporary architecture and the finest taste design stand out. A truly unique option in Lisbon, this exclusive building is composed by five floors. It develops a strong connection to its outside area, offers a lot of brightness and a south sun exposure. It represents a perfect symbiosis between the existing topography and flora, opposing the steel and the glass to the bucolic atmosphere that surrounds the swimming pool. The ample interior rooms integrate distinctive lines and elements, which were carefully adapted to each area, resulting in a variety of atmospheres that - despite the blend of lines, colours and shapes - provide coherence and harmony.
The villa is composed by five floors:
Ground floor:
- an area to support the house, a garage and a technical area
First floor - ground floor (219,12 sqm)
- a living room, a dining room, a social bathroom and a scullery with direct access to the garden and to the swimming pool
Second floor - ground floor (212 sqm)
- an entry hall, a kitchen, an office and a suite
Third floor (169,22 sqm)
- three suites
Fourth floor (71 sqm):
- a Master Suite with direct access to a balcony that provides a view
Rooftop(42 sqm):
- a terrace that provides a river view
The garden´s atmosphere was carefully planned, with bamboos that have an around 30 metres height and work as a fence, guaranteeing total privacy. The living rooms facing the garden comprise large dimensioned windows that, when opened, convert the interior and exterior areas into a unique organic and fluid place. The entire villa faces the outside area, with balconies and the rooftop facing south. All the bedrooms of this villa are en suite and have direct access to ample terraces that, due to the fact of having uneven levels, provide different dazzling views over the garden and the river. The Master Suite, placed on the second floor, includes a marvellous terrace that offers a frontal view to the river and where a superb light is to be rejoiced. On the rooftop there is a fabulous terrace that provides a stunning 180º view to the Tagus river, Christ the King and also to the whole city.
