Villa Edith is a beautifully restored early 20th-century chalet in the heart of Monte Estoril. The property’s historic architectural elegance has been seamlessly blended with all contemporary comforts. What makes this residence truly exceptional is a combination rarely found in a single property: the ability to walk to the beach, cafés, restaurants, and other local amenities on offer in Monte Estoril, while enjoying the privacy of a mature garden, a heated swimming pool, secure parking, and a home of genuine architectural significance.

Among its most distinctive features is a remarkable collection of original 17th and 18th-century azulejo tiles, thoughtfully incorporated throughout the house. Together with beautifully preserved woodwork, elegant fireplaces, generous proportions, and ceiling heights of approximately 3.2 metres, these details create an atmosphere of timeless sophistication and authenticity.

Offering approximately 565 m² of gross built area across four levels, the residence sits on a private plot of around 500 m². The accommodation comprises six bedrooms, including an outstanding principal suite, as well as separate staff quarters. Predominantly south-facing, the home is flooded with natural light and enjoys increasingly expansive sea views from its upper floors.

The mature landscaped gardens extend across approximately 250 m², creating a secluded setting despite the property's highly central location. Carefully designed outdoor areas surround a heated saltwater swimming pool and include multiple terraces, along with a deck featuring an outdoor fireplace—an inviting space for entertaining, relaxation, and year-round enjoyment.

The layout has been thoughtfully designed to balance formal entertaining with comfortable family living. The entrance level is dedicated to reception and everyday living, featuring elegant drawing and dining rooms, a bar, a breakfast room, and a fully equipped kitchen complemented by a pantry and laundry area. Two wood-burning fireplaces enhance the warmth and character of this level.

The intermediate floor includes a family sitting room, two en-suite bedrooms, a kitchenette, and a dedicated office suite, with fireplace, that can easily be converted into an additional en-suite bedroom. A south-facing balcony spans this level, offering attractive sea views.

Occupying the upper floor, the principal suite serves as a private retreat, complete with dual walk-in wardrobes, separate bathrooms, and dedicated living and study areas.
Additional amenities include a lift serving all floors, integrated heating and cooling throughout the house, staff accommodation, extensive storage areas, dedicated workspaces, and a secure two-car garage, combining modern convenience with the elegance of a period residence.

Villa Edith is ideally positioned within walking distance of the beach, the seafront promenade, Jardim dos Passarinhos, renowned restaurants, charming cafés, and a wide range of everyday services.

Widely regarded as one of the most prestigious addresses on the Portuguese Riviera, Monte Estoril combines the charm of a walkable seaside village with the refinement of an established international destination. Excellent schools, healthcare facilities, and the centres of Cascais, Estoril, and Lisbon are all easily accessible.

Residences that combine architectural heritage, mature gardens, a swimming pool, privacy, secure parking, modern comforts, and a prime walkable location in the heart of Monte Estoril are exceptionally rare. Villa Edith represents a unique opportunity to acquire one of the area's most distinctive and complete homes.
