Detached Villa with 5 Bedrooms, Bom Jesus, Braga
Detached villa with 5 bedrooms and a swimming pool, set on a plot of 2300 square meters, near Bom Jesus, in Braga. The original property underwent rehabilitation and expansion in the early 2000s, with a bold and timeless design by the prestigious architectural firm Cerejeira Fontes. Integrated into the hillside of Bom Jesus, it is located in an area that once predominated with rural properties and estates. The rehabilitation project reflects these Minho influences, combined with the contemporary boldness of a modern home.
The house is developed over two floors and an attic space, with both floors set at different levels corresponding to the ground floor at each level. All social and private areas face a unique and private garden with various century-old trees and a small lake, with direct access from all rooms. The living room features distinct architectural elements, such as a vaulted ceiling covered in brick, which evokes the typical houses of the Alentejo and Arab-style homes. The room is equipped with a double-sided heat recovery fireplace.
The kitchen is fully equipped and has direct access to the dining area. This floor also includes an office, a guest bathroom, an English patio, and four bedrooms, with the master suite featuring a walk-in closet and a bathroom with natural light. The three other bedrooms share a full bathroom, also with natural light. In the attic, there is an additional bedroom and a complete bathroom.
The lower floor features a garage for 6 cars, a laundry area, a mezzanine with a multipurpose room, and another room with a gym, jacuzzi, and access to a magnificent swimming pool and sunbathing area. The quality of the finishes is noteworthy, such as the natural stones applied in the bathrooms, solid wood flooring, and handmade tiles produced in Alentejo.
The location is privileged, halfway between the city of Braga and the Bom Jesus Sanctuary, offering a unique view of the city. It is just a few minutes from the Gualtar University Campus and all types of commerce and services in the surrounding area.
