real estateConsistent with its original master plan, Quinta do Lago remains low-rise, low-density and ecologically-driven. Located in a protected nature reserve with striking wetland scenery, the resort embraces its natural surroundings, restricting its built area to 9%. The resort also leads the way in blending a seductive quality of life with its residential property offering.

san lorenzo northDividing into 26 exclusive plots - each benefitting from lakefront, golf-front and pine grove views - the beautiful enclave of San Lorenzo North offers the first opportunity to buy land and build a luxury home in Quinta do Lago since 2001. With their access to all the resort’s many facilities, these exclusive properties will deliver luxurious living in a secluded setting. The sites will be released in 4 plot tranches.

Contrasting the existing architecture of the resort, the new homes in San Lorenzo North will be more contemporary in style, featuring modernist, cutting-edge design. If buyers prefer the traditional aesthetic however, it will be possible to create a bespoke home in keeping with the more conventional architecture found throughout the rest of Quinta do Lago.

architects

De Blacam and Meagher (Dublin)De Blacam and Meagher are pre-eminent architects in Europe. The practice is primarily concerned with the creation of simple buildings, emphasising such beautiful materials as oak, white limestone, black fossil limestone, granite, slate, stainless steel, glass, naturally pigmented paints, gold leaf, wool, linen and silk to lend quality, permanence and significance to the work.
