Description
Surrounded by lush banana plantations and immersed within Madeira’s natural landscape, the property commands uninterrupted panoramic views over the Atlantic Ocean, the city skyline, the harbour, and the iconic casino district — a setting defined by light, exclusivity, and absolute serenity.
Originally designed by one of Madeira’s most respected architects, the residence reflects timeless architectural elegance combined with an extraordinary sense of scale and functionality. With an impressive 834 square meters of living space, the villa has been conceived for refined family living, entertaining on a grand scale, or luxury hospitality use.
The estate features eight bedrooms, including two magnificent master suites complete with private bathrooms and dressing areas. At the heart of the home lies an extraordinary 120-square-meter open living, dining, and television space, connected through a grand gallery corridor incorporating a private library — creating an atmosphere reminiscent of a private European residence rather than a conventional villa.
Every detail throughout the property reflects craftsmanship and permanence. Premium Portuguese marble flooring valued at over €100,000 extends throughout the principal living areas, while natural stone walls, authentic wood staircases, and intricate timber ceiling applications create warmth and architectural richness rarely found in contemporary constructions.
The fully equipped kitchen combines modern sophistication with practicality, while three fireplaces and air-conditioned bedroom suites ensure year-round comfort.
Designed equally for leisure and entertainment, the lower level incorporates a newly constructed children’s sports lounge — easily convertible into a private fitness studio — together with a billiard room and private bar area perfectly suited for hosting family gatherings and social events.
Externally, the estate continues to impress through meticulously landscaped gardens featuring mango trees, banana plantations, fig trees, avocado trees, rose gardens, aromatic herbs, and carefully designed pathways inspired by Madeira’s subtropical beauty.
The future owner will also have the opportunity to personalize several final renovation elements, including the creation of a spectacular infinity-edge swimming pool overlooking the Atlantic Ocean, together with selected finishing touches inspired by Mediterranean Santorini-style architecture, featuring elegant white façades accented by refined blue detailing.
Beyond its lifestyle appeal, the property also represents a remarkable investment opportunity. The villa is currently licensed for short-term rental accommodation, allowing owners to generate approximately €10,000 per month from four guest suites while fully preserving the privacy and exclusivity of the principal family residence.
Built and upgraded to an exceptionally high technical standard, the property benefits from a complete electrical renovation with a 45A power connection, fibre-optic internet, solar panels, and heat pump systems for water heating — seamlessly combining traditional craftsmanship with modern efficiency and infrastructure.
Located only three minutes from the International School — visible directly from several terraces and balconies — this residence offers a lifestyle of exceptional convenience for international families seeking security, accessibility, and prestige within Madeira’s luxury residential market.
This is a rare opportunity to acquire one of Funchal’s most compelling private estates — a property combining architectural presence, scale, investment potential, and irreplaceable positioning within one of Europe’s most desirable Atlantic destinations.
