Herdade da Orezza

A new concept has arrived to the Algarve. Nestled into a gentle Algarve hillside, this 315 m² home is organized as two intersecting volumes, one containing the open-plan living, dining, and kitchen areas, and the other housing private suites, with a fully buried basement beneath.

Material palette consists of local dry stone walls, oak finishings and terracotta red stucco. Entering directly from an open driveway, you step into a vaulted, single-volume space where the living area flows into a streamlined kitchen with a central island. Full-height glazing on one side pockets away to reveal a shaded terrace and exterior pool. A small staircase rises to a mezzanine “club” lounge.
