Majestic design defines this fairytale castle
The magnificent castle is designed for the discerning and sophisticated connoisseur of fine living. It is grand, stately and exudes a distinguished, traditional refinement.
The castle is an extraordinary work of art, blending Old Manueline style with 19th-century romantic period elements and luxury finishes and fittings. The Manueline style, named after King Manuel I (who reigned between 1495-1521), marked the transition from Gothic to Renaissance in Portugal. It is an ornate and imposing style inspired by the voyages of discovery, drawing heavily on nautical themes, usually with ropes and coral carved in twisted stone, topped by armillary spheres and the Cross of the Order of Christ.
Dating from the 17th century, this stunning 900m² castle exudes incomparable elegance, classical character and premier-quality craftsmanship. It is richly decorated with gilded wood, Portuguese tiles, painted ceilings and elaborate fireplaces. The historic property boasts over 30 rooms, including 20 bedrooms and a suite of staterooms, with several large halls. The towering castle also enjoys scenic views, a lovely landscaped garden and a pool.
The castle stands majestically on sprawling grounds of 600,000m2, overlooking the green pastures of Torres Novas. A beautiful and charming area of the country, Torres Novas also has a lovely town and is easily accessible from Lisbon.
This is fairytale living at its finest.
