The home was built in 2009 and is of the traditional Algarvian style with a contemporary twist. A unique entry with water feature greets you to this magnificent home.

This is a beautiful estate. I love how all the bedrooms and bathrooms feel so open with the movable walls. The stone teps over the water feature is such a tranquil way to enter the home; very nice touch. I would definitely change the decor though.

This proposed ultra-modern villa will be built in Vilamoura, Portugal. Dubbed “The Lake House”, it will be completely gated and walled in. There will be an abundant use of glass, water and natural stone. The focal point of the house will be the indoor swimming pool which is surrounded by shallow lakes creating the impression of stone terraces which seem to float in the middle of a lake. It will feature approximately 21,500 square feet of living space with 8 bedrooms, 8 full and 1 half bathrooms, various lounge areas, home theater, 2-lane bowling alley, billiards/game room with indoor spa and bar, huge master suite with  indoor/outdoor bathroom with Japanese water garden, glassed-in walkways are set in outdoor corridors with water channels and bridges interlinking the eight bedroom suites, terrace, 2nd lap swimming pool, guest house and a helipad. The price is available upon request; I’m sure it’ll be over $15,000,000.

This house is the epitome of indoor/outdoor living. The extensive use of water flowing throughout the house makes for a peaceful and tranquil feel. I’m not a modern home type of guy, but this house looks like it’s going to be awesome. The indoor/outdoor master bathroom is exquisite, never seen something quite like that! Yeah, there’s no privacy, but it looks extremely relaxing!!! I also love all the amenities included, especially the 2-lane bowling alley; my kind of idea of entertainment!
