ENCOSTAS DO DOURO

Relax amid rolling hills and terraced vineyards in this modern retreat boasting epic views and tranquility.

Sitting on 3 hectares of land amid one of the world's oldest wine regions and UNESCO World Heritage Sites is Encostas do Douro.

In a region known for the integration of nature and engineering, Encostas do Douro provides a bit of both. Modern clean lines and high ceilings provide convenient living across three levels, with a main house, a studio, and a wine cellar—allowing for social gatherings (dinners, events, workshops) to not intrude on private life.

The main house consists of 6-bedrooms, a top-of-the-line fully equipped kitchen, a modern free-standing tub, and two indoor fireplaces to cozy up near in winter. The studio comes with its own separate kitchen facility, and direct access to the pool and decks. The wine cellar is to the side of the house, producing red and rosé wines, and out of harvest season becomes an extra multifunctional space with historic charm.

Outside, relax on one of two expansive sundecks, or take a dive in the heated infinity pool overlooking the vineyards. In a fast-paced world, there are not many places like Encostas do Douro, where one can truly find peace and quiet, while sipping on your own line of award-winning wine.

There are multiple hiking trails nearby; and you’re able to relax, swim, or boat on the Douro river with direct access from the vineyard. Within a ten minute drive you arrive at the Douro Museum, incredible sight-seeing, top-tier restaurants, and village life.

The property has a hotelier license (with 5% yield), and an option to build up to 5 more villas. The surrounding area is fully protected area under Portuguese law, guaranteeing preservation and serenity.
