Sleek, modern architecture marks the design of this stunning Showcase House by de Blacam and Meagher Architects that sits on a golf course in Portugal's Quinta do Lago, one of Europe's finest luxury resorts.
The plot of 2140 m² villa faces the 10th hole of the San Lorenzo course, with the villa opening up to this breath-taking view.
The house is planned so that the entrance to the north has a closed private elevation contrasting with the open south facing elevation with its double height portico on the garden side.
Over a generous layout of 850 m² this contemporary masterpiece features five stunning bedroom suites, a double-height covered terrace wrapping around the villa’s lower floor, a marble floor swimming pool, a basement complete with gym, home-spa, games room and home cinema.
The built-in fireplace in the living room prior to being furnished:
The swimming pool is a beautiful rectangular spillover pool whose bottom and stairs are covered in heavily veined marble tiles.
A built in outdoor grill and lots of outdoor seating make for perfect entertaining:
A series of cubic volumes step gradually up the slope of the site from the entrance road up to the double height living room, facing onto the fairway.
