Overview
High above the mist-kissed hills of Sintra—where time moves like the slow unfurling of a royal tapestry—stands the **Quinta Nova de S. Pedro**, a palace forged in the bold vision of 1963 and lovingly restored to its golden age in the 1980s. Here, within 35,000 square meters of enchanted land, history and nature entwine in a symphony of grandeur and serenity.
The **900-square-meter principal residence**, a masterpiece of mid-century elegance, unfolds across soaring salons, intimate chambers, and meticulously appointed private quarters—each space designed to cradle both opulent gatherings and quiet reflection. Sunlight spills through towering windows, gilding the interiors with the same golden hue that paints the Sintra hills at dusk, while beyond the glass, a world of emerald unfolds.

Step outside, and the estate reveals itself as a living poem. **Manicured lawns stretch like verdant carpets**, leading to hidden groves where centuries-old trees stand sentinel. A **spring-fed water reservoir**, nourished by the land’s own heartbeat, sustains the lush gardens—a rare gift in a world where such purity is fleeting. Here, the air hums with the scent of eucalyptus and wild lavender, carried on breezes that once inspired poets and kings.
For those who seek both sport and solace, a **private tennis court** awaits beneath the dappled shade of towering pines, while the **sparkling pool**, flanked by its own elegant pavilion, offers respite from the Iberian sun. The estate’s **guardian’s cottage and animal stables** whisper of a life lived in harmony with the land, where tradition and modern luxury coexist seamlessly.

This is more than a property; it is a **legacy etched into the soul of Sintra**, a place where the 1960s’ architectural daring meets the timeless allure of Portugal’s most mythic landscape. To walk its paths is to step into a story—one where every sunrise over the Atlantic, every rustle of the forest, every echo in the grand halls reminds you: **this is where dreams take root, and legends begin.**
