In one of the most prestigious residential areas of Estoril, less than 800 metres from the sea, this property with 1,850 sqm of land offers a rare opportunity: to develop a contemporary six-bedroom home from the ground up, with an architectural project designed in detail and already submitted to the council in the final stage of approval. The plot holds a favourable preliminary planning opinion (PIP), and the project provides for a home of 488 sqm of construction area across two floors, with a pool, gym and generous terraces. The project arranges the ground floor around a 50 sqm living room and a 22 sqm dining area, served by a 31 sqm kitchen with separate pantry and laundry.
