Casa Branca Sesimbra / Lisbon

Beautiful and bright family villa with 3 air-conditioned bedrooms in the middle of nature. Sesimbra has been voted 1 of the 2 most special places in Portugal in the "European best destinations" list!

The House:
Casa Branca is a beautiful family villa and the perfect base for your trip to Sesimbra. Spacious and bright house, very tastefully decorated in a bohemian style with a mix of modern and traditional elements. The villa has 4 sunny balconies and a large garden. Only 8 minutes by car to the town of Sesimbra with its beautiful beaches and 5 minutes from beaches such as Praia do Meco (6 km). Our house has a view over our private valley of 6000m2 surrounded by rocks, with room for a lovely walk on our private grounds with numerous fruit trees. We have a lot of privacy in this area. The villa is at the end of a quiet road.

The entrance is on the first floor, which can be reached via the stairs. On this level you will find the living room that opens onto the balcony through 4 French doors. In addition to the indoor kitchen, there is a large outdoor kitchen with a dining table for 8 people. The master bedroom with its own balcony has an en suite bathroom. There is also a 2nd bedroom with a balcony. (note: this bedroom is closed). On this floor there is an extra bathroom with shower, bath and toilet.

On the floor below (renovated March 1, 2024) there are 2 bedrooms, 1 common room and a bathroom. This level has its own entrance, so great if you want to leave or arrive and not wake up the whole family.

Casa Branca was completely renovated in the spring of 2022 while retaining the characteristic Portuguese elements.

Kind regards, Brigit and Jan Koenders

Area
Sesimbra is home to a Moorish castle. The position of Sesimbra Castle was crucial to the defense of Portugal, and the castle was one of the first victories for the Christian conquest of Portugal over the Moors in 1165. The castle stands 230 meters (755 feet) above the fishing village and has a fantastic view.

Sesimbra has a vast fishing heritage and a lively fishing port. Sesimbra is mainly a fishing town, so the fish in the fish restaurants is always fresh. The marina is also a trendy place to relax. A short drive to the western point, Cabo Espichel, with impressive cliffs, is home to a pilgrimage church, a lighthouse with even... dinosaur footprints and tracks!!!

East of the town of Sesimbra in Serra da Arrábida, where you can find beautiful beaches hidden behind lush hills. It is a great place for walkers and cyclists. For those looking for some adrenaline, you can go mountain biking and kayaking along the coastline of cliffs, caves and beaches.

The Fort of Santiago has existed alongside the community of Sesimbra for 365 years. It was built when danger came from the sea and the maritime borders had to be defended.
