Once a residence of a Count and Countess, this 19th-century rose coloured palacete has undergone a meticulous six year renovation to become a discerning design-lovers dream.Set on the outskirts of Setúbal and secluded on a 4.7 hectare estate surrounded by trees, the property spans three floors and offers 25 rooms including five suites and four bedrooms. Versatile in function, the property could suit use as a boutique guesthouse, an event venue or large private family residence. Period elements have been carefully restored with a contemporary sensibility. Original flooring was stripped of dark varnish to reveal beautiful herringbone parquet and stunning bathrooms featuring original Viúva Lamego azulejos, but updated with Bruma tapware.

This floor further comprises a bathroom, storage room, laundry area, wine cellar and multifunctional rooms that could be used for an artist in residency.
