Luxury villa on the banks of the River Douro! | Villa en Castedo

Luxury Douro Valley villa overlooking the river next to a sister property that shares a quaint boat dock and majestic views.
The seductive mix of Olde Worlde architecture, eclectic interior design, super clean-lined kitchen, roughhewn natural stones, contemporary artwork contrasted with hills of well-tended vines and the omnipresent Douro River all add up to one of the more distinct properties in the region.
Sitting next door to its equally divine sister property, the two share a boat dock and some of the most majestic views of the river flanked by a continuously changing color palette of vines, trees and shrubs.
Arrive by boat, sit for hours on the riverside terrace watching the changing scene throughout the day, languish in the riverside lap pool or dine alfresco under the clearest sky studded with a million stars.
