Villas, a brand of the MAP Group, has announced plans to build a new luxury residential project in Cascais, Portugal. The project, located on Avenida Marechal Carmona, will feature a multi-family residential building with high-end apartments. According to Carolina Charrua, the announcement was made on October 7, 2026. The new development is part of Villas' strategy to expand its presence in the Portuguese market.
The new residential project will comprise a five-apartment building with a total area of approximately 2100 m². The building will have two apartments per floor, with typologies ranging from T3 to T4, on the ground and first floors. All bedrooms will be designed as suites, and a penthouse with three suites will be located on the second floor, offering exclusive access to a private garden with a swimming pool. The underground floor will be dedicated to parking and technical areas.
The construction process will involve the demolition of the existing house, execution of a land containment structure using micro-stakes, anchors, and Berlin-type containment walls, and the construction of a reinforced concrete building. The project is expected to be completed within 23 months. The architectural design, signed by Bernardes Arquitetura, features a contemporary language with a perforated grid facade that filters light and ensures privacy.
The interior design prioritizes natural materials, wooden ceilings, and a continuous relationship between living spaces and garden terraces. The project aims to integrate the building with the surrounding vegetation. According to João Freitas Fernandes, CEO of Villas by MAP Group, Cascais is one of the most demanding territories in the country for building high-standard housing, and Villas wants to be present in such contexts.
The new project is seen as a reinforcement of the confidence that promoters and designers have in Villas' ability to execute complex projects without compromising any details. Villas is a MAP Group Company, which suggests a strong backing and resources for the project. The company seems committed to delivering a high-quality development that meets the demands of the Cascais market.
The residential building will feature a large wooden canopy that shelters the glazed social spaces. The design aims to create a balance between modernity and harmony with the surroundings. The project is expected to set a new standard for luxury residential developments in Cascais.
The Villas project in Cascais is expected to contribute to the local real estate market, which is known for its high standards and demanding clients. With its focus on quality and attention to detail, Villas aims to establish itself as a key player in the luxury residential sector in Portugal.
