Manor House MafraEnxara do Bispo, Gradil e Vila Franca do Rosário, Mafra

This fabulous 18th century manor house, located in Mafra, is a true architectural gem. With a total area of 120 hectares, the manor house has a gross private area of 1,311m2 and a gross construction area of 1,579m2, including a chapel, various support buildings and a vast woodland area.

The house, built in the mid-20th century, was inspired by the centuries-old homes of Portuguese noble families. Noble materials were used, such as stone slabs recovered from churches and other stately homes, as well as high-quality wood. Highlights include the remarkable paintings on the panelled ceilings of the main halls, which combine finishes from various periods. 17th and 18th century tile panels, original 16th century interior arches, stone vaulted ceilings, 18th century fireplace stones and other pieces from France, Italy, Germany, Venice and Greece adorn the interior.

The 17th and 18th century tiles give the building a unique harmony and beauty, while the swimming pool lined with tiles by the painter and ceramist Manuel Cargaleiro is a work of art in itself.

The two-storey house has two main entrances, one for each floor, with access via the gardens or a side staircase to the car park. The balconies offer breathtaking views of the surrounding nature and the magnificent ornate boxwood garden, complemented by various shrub species and a small pond.

On the first floor, a large entrance hall with a tiled stone staircase leads to the main lounge with an 18th-century fireplace and magnificent old stone arches. The Dining Room overlooks the pool, and a spacious Library/Office, also with a fireplace, connects to the balcony.
