5-bedroom house for sale in Alcabideche

In Abuxarda, Cascais, within a private gated development of just four houses, this newly built, detached five-bedroom villa (T5) offers 467 m² of gross private area spread over three floors, plus a further 63 m² of balconies and covered terrace. Contemporary architecture, high ceilings and floor-to-ceiling glazing connect the house to a walled garden with a private swimming pool.

The ground floor houses the reception rooms. The living room, generous and glazed on two sides, opens directly onto a 30 m² covered terrace and the garden. The kitchen is separate, with Blum hardware fitted furniture, Miele appliances and its own access to the outside. This floor also has a bedroom and a full bathroom, which serves guests too.

The three suites are on the upper floor, each with an en suite bathroom and built-in wardrobes with interior lighting. Two of them open onto a 33 m² balcony that wraps around two elevations of the house, with glass balustrading and views over the surrounding trees.

The lower floor has direct access to the garden and comprises a fifth bedroom, a climate-controlled wine cellar, a laundry room, a plant room and a bathroom. The garage has space for four cars, with an entire wall of storage cupboards and ample room to double as a gym.

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

Heating and cooling are provided by underfloor and ceiling radiant systems powered by a heat pump, which warm and cool the house with no units on show, with ducted air conditioning on the ground floor. The same heat pump produces hot water, photovoltaic panels generate part of the energy consumed, and mechanical ventilation renews the air even with the windows closed. Home automation centralises lighting, blinds, curtains and climate control, with different scenes for each room. There is also central vacuum, a fixed system built into the walls, a video intercom and a security door.
