Enchanting Restored Charm House, Lovingly Preserving its Original Character

This delightful residence, exquisitely restored with a keen sense of preserving its original charm, strikes a harmonious balance between Portuguese terracotta floors and ancient reclaimed wooden ceilings, thoughtfully adapted to modern comfort standards. It boasts exceptional natural light exposure and offers breathtaking views of the Mountains and the Sea.

Nestled in the heart of Sintra's picturesque village of Penedo, this dwelling was completely rejuvenated in 2022. With a heritage dating back to 1951, this residence, bearing its distinguished coat of arms, rests to the north of the Sintra-Cascais Natural Park. Here, one can revel in the tranquility and serenity of this place, seemingly perched among the clouds, with lush greenery stretching out beneath.

This captivating 2+1 bedroom house spans two levels and includes an attic conversion. It welcomes you with three entrances: two on the lower floor, where one can step inside and discover a 17sqm living room adorned with natural stone walls, a fireplace, and an oven. A generously sized 20sqm kitchen, fully equipped with dining space, seamlessly connects to the delightful 30sqm Portuguese cobblestone courtyard (the second entrance), integrating the outdoors into the home's living experience. The lower level also features a complete guest bathroom, along with various storage spaces such as a pantry and architecturally integrated cabinets.

The third entrance is accessed from the Largo da Capela de Santo António and Nossa Senhora das Mercês on the first floor of the house. Here, a 10sqm hallway leads to a 20sqm suite, a 10sqm bedroom, and access to the 22sqm attic, finished in natural wood and adorned with a "velux" window, offering a captivating view of the Mountains and the Sea. This versatile space can serve as a bedroom, office, or a cozy living area with storage nestled in the eaves. The entire first floor features restored wooden flooring and wooden paneled ceilings.

Regarding accessibility, the property is just 10 minutes from the Historic Center of Sintra and is conveniently located near the IC19, A16, and A5 highways, providing easy access to Cascais, Lisbon, and the Airport (50 minutes). You can enjoy all that this area has to offer, situated between the natural reserve and the beaches, from Adraga Beach to the town of Sintra, not to mention the traditional commerce of the village itself.
