Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Designed by the owner, a lot of love has gone into this villa. The shaded veranda dappled with botanica and furnished with hanging chairs, lounge areas and a summer kitchen is what drew us to this home. Within the vast lawn, an inviting swimming pool awaits and Aroeira’s golf course is just next door. It feels a bit like an art gallery inside, and the eye is immediately drawn to the striking central fireplace in the sunny living room. Bedrooms are vintage in furnishings (some might say dated), and those in the box room might feel as though they’ve drawn the short straw. But there’s a huge games room in the basement and the kitchen can cater for big family meals, no problem.
