Circa 1889 Villa in Sintra
This mansion in Sintra, built in 1889 by Possidónio de Castro, a prominent monarchist who accompanied King D. Carlos' carriage on horseback, is a gem of Portuguese romantic architecture. With its four floors, high ceilings, intricately worked stucco frames, wooden floors with running boards, and a four-pitched roof, it embodies the elegance of the Belle Époque. Its construction coincides with Sintra's urban expansion following the arrival of the railway, and its connections to the nobility and diplomatic figures enhance its historical and cultural value, consolidating it as an essential part of the architectural heritage of the town. This 4 bedroom villa in Sintra, luxuriously refurbished, in a central and quiet area, is surrounded by nature. On the ground floor there is a garden around the house, we have a large living room with open kitchen, a large library and a guest bathroom. On the 2nd floor there is the master suite with a huge closet, and a second suite, we go up to the attic which is divided into two bedrooms with a common bathroom. In the basement we can find a wine cellar, a cinema room, a sauna and a full bathroom. Inside the property there is space for car parking.
