Contemporary 5-Bed Villa with Pool and Garage

In Abuxarda, Cascais, within a private development of four houses, this newly built detached five-bedroom house offers 467 m² of gross private area across three floors, plus 63 m² of balcony and covered terrace. Its contemporary architecture, high ceilings and floor-to-ceiling glazing connect the house to an enclosed garden with a private pool.

The ground floor holds the living areas. The living room is spacious, glazed on two sides and opens straight onto a 30 m² covered terrace and the garden. The kitchen is separate, with Blum-fitted cabinetry, Miele appliances and its own door to the outside. This floor also has a bedroom and a full bathroom that doubles as the guest bathroom.

The upper floor is home to three suites, each with a private bathroom and built-in wardrobes with interior lighting. Two of them open onto a 33 m² balcony running along two sides of the house, with a glass balustrade and views over the surrounding trees.

The lower floor has direct access to the garden and holds a fifth bedroom, a climate-controlled wine cellar, the laundry room, a plant room and a bathroom. The garage takes four cars and, with a full wall of storage, has plenty of room to double as a gym.

The main and upper floors have solid hardwood flooring, while the lower floor has large-format porcelain tiles with a light concrete look. The bathrooms are finished in microcement on both walls and floors, with heated towel rails. The windows are Sapa minimalist sliding frames from the EVO II range, with tempered double glazing, and the Windscreen blackout blinds are recessed into the ceiling with no visible housings.

Heating and cooling come from underfloor and radiant ceiling systems powered by a heat pump, keeping the house comfortable year-round with no units on show, while the ground floor also has ducted air conditioning. The same heat pump supplies hot water, photovoltaic panels generate part of the energy the house uses, and mechanical ventilation keeps the air fresh even with the windows closed. A home automation system controls lighting, blinds, curtains and climate, with different scenes for each space. There is also a central vacuum system built into the walls, a video intercom and a security door.

Abuxarda is a quiet residential area of Alcabideche, about a minute from the A5 and A16 motorways and five minutes from Cascais town centre. Cascais Shopping and CUF Cascais Hospital are a few minutes away, as are Guincho beach and the Quinta da Marinha golf courses. The area has several international schools, including King's College School Cascais, TASIS and CAISL. Sintra is around 15 minutes away and Lisbon airport around 30.

A brand-new home designed down to the last detail, in a development of just four houses five minutes from Cascais.
