Charming Mountain Home in the Sintra Hills with Breathtaking Views
Nestled in the serene Serra de Sintra, this enchanting mountain retreat offers absolutely stunning panoramic views—overlooking the quaint village of Penedo, stretching across the lush hills to Praia das Maçãs, and reaching as far as Mafra, Ericeira, and the Atlantic Ocean on the horizon. It's a rare find that combines natural beauty, tranquility, and proximity to the coast.
Set on a generous 1,240 m² plot, the property includes a 148 m² main house, blending comfort, charm, and flexibility. What has served as a cherished family weekend getaway has also been a highly successful Airbnb, boasting a 4.83-star rating.
The main house features three bedrooms: the primary suite occupies the entire top floor, offering privacy and exceptional views, while the other two bedrooms are located on the ground floor.
The ground floor also includes:
- A welcoming entrance hall
- A charming, traditional-style kitchen
- A cozy living and dining area with a large picture window to soak in the landscape
- A rare and beautiful salamandra fireplace
- A glassed-in marquise facing the mountains—perfect for morning coffee or evening relaxation
The lower level includes a spacious room that can be used flexibly—as an office, games room, or converted into two additional bedrooms.
At the entrance of the property, a former garage has been tastefully transformed into a communal area with kitchen facilities and a terrace offering panoramic views. This space can also serve as an additional bedroom or guest suite.
Also on the land is a separate one-bedroom guesthouse with a bathroom, nestled within a lush garden that feels like a natural sanctuary—featuring native vegetation, orange and lemon trees, and even natural spring water running through the property.
Located at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, with no adjacent neighbors, this is a haven of peace and privacy. Facing west, the sunsets are nothing short of magical.
Despite the seclusion, you're just 10 minutes from the stunning beaches of Praia da Adraga, Praia Grande, and Praia das Maçãs, where some of the region’s finest seafood restaurants await. Local markets, grocers, and charming eateries are also close by, offering a true village lifestyle with modern comforts.
Whether you're looking for a full-time residence, a vacation home, or a dual-purpose investment, this is a one-of-a-kind opportunity in one of Portugal’s most scenic and sought-after locations.
This is pure bliss in Sintra.
