About the Property

A distinguished 19th-century palace, Quinta do Relógio, built in 1860 under the direction of Architect Cinatti from Siena, is situated in Paço de Arcos, Portugal. Once the summer residence of His Royal Highness, King Fernando II, this property retains its connection to the Portuguese nobility, with current owners being descendants of King D. João I and Queen D. Filipa de Lancastre. The estate spans 6,600 square meters and offers breathtaking views over the Tagus River and the Atlantic Ocean. The palace exhibits a neoclassical architectural language, characterized by its palatial proportions and unique elements, including a symmetrical layout and a sequence of spaces formed by a porch, entrance hall, and a grand staircase illuminated by a skylight. The main building features three rooms with sea views and direct access to the gardens, which are adorned with a variety of ancient trees, including Araucaria and plane trees. The exterior spaces are thoughtfully arranged around a patio that houses the garages, stables, and service quarters.
