House at the Costa de Lagoa (near Posto 11 of the ferry )

Since completion in 2007 voted by everyone as one of the most beautiful houses on the Costa de Lagoa.

It is not only the house, which is almost completely hidden by large bamboo trees when arriving by boat from the town of Lagoa , but also the exclusive location where from the totally renovated pontoon with enough space for a number of boats ,one climbs up to a house situated safely on the rocks built in a mixture of oriental styles with clear Azorean influences and surrounded by large decks and terraces. An ideal place far away from the turmoil of cars, traffic jams and the sounds of the city etc. and still within a 5-10 minutes reach by boat of all the necessities and pleasures offered by not only the small town of Lagoa with the restaurants, shops for practical items and for luxury and clothing, supermarkets , etc. but also near the authentic communities of the people living on the Costa de Lagoa with the lovely fish restaurants which all through the year are the favourite destination of the people from Florianopolis and tourists during weekends and holidays.

The house was designed by a combination of a famous Dutch architect together with an equally well known Brazilian architect to take care of the small details linked to the specifics of the plot the house is built on. In order to not change anything of the beauty of this spot, the house was built around a large Figueira tree which shelters the house against the heat and gives shadow on the large decks on top of the house. This tree is visible inside the house through large windows from all sides and gives a very strong feeling of being connected to the pristine nature of this part of the world.

Extreme care was given by the owner to make sure that this house meets all the latest standards of dealing with waste etc. The best experts in the area were called in to make sure that all was done to make this house an example of how to have a luxurious living space and still be completely part of nature.

The interior of the house is kept in natural materials and colours and as a tribute to the strong ties to the original past of this house, all furniture in the bathrooms, toilets and kitchen has been made from noble wood out of demolished houses by an expert furniture maker in the area. The wooden floors were treated with a special varnish which gives the appearance of having been there for many decades.

This house was built with the idea of being able to host a higher than normal number of people to enjoy the hospitality of the owners to be able to receive many friends and family at the same time.
The deck linked to the bar, barbecue, pizza oven etc. has given place to a large table which can host up to 16 people under a shelter from the sun to enjoy pleasant lunches and dinners.
With small tables and chairs for breakfast and drinks and a lounging area with high quality furniture and benches made out of (again) demolition wood, this house meets all standards of a comfortable and luxurious living space.

The kitchen was made in a semi professional style to be able to cook meals for many people with all the modern equipment needed but still honouring a simple and natural appearance.
The choice in plates, cutlery and glasses is such that, first of all, there are enough to cater to many people but also of a top quality to make the process of receiving friends and setting up a beautiful table a pure pleasure.

The living room with the dining table for 8, the couches, TV area and office is large and comfortable. The three ventilators on the ceiling in combination with the large bay windows ,which provide enough fresh air coming in, make it a comfortable space to be in also when it is very hot outside. In colder days there is the wood fire which heats the total space in the shortest time necessary.
The bedrooms have all separate air conditioning units and extra ceiling ventilators.
The house features a large flat television screen and a home theatre and connection to Sky.

The house has screens against incoming insects on all doors and windows and although not an area pestered by annoying mosquitoes, reason why the garden was kept with a surface of gravel rather than grass, it is still a very important asset to keep the house clear of insects.
There are 2 tanks of each 3000 litres for very clean water straight off the mountain and as a precaution there is a generator for the few times per year that there is a power cut and this gives a limited supply of electricity to keep the house lighted until the power comes back on.
Underneath the house is a fully equipped laundry area with an extra space for a workbench for the tools etc. for repairs. Here is also the space to store a.o. the chairs from outside during the wintertime.

The house features three large bedrooms, suites, each with their own bathroom and toilet with the master bedroom on the first floor with a beautiful view over the Lagoa from balconies all around. With the 2 bedrooms with each a double bed and an extra single bed and the master bedroom with a 160x200 double bed , the house can comfortably sleep 6 adults and 2 children. All furniture and beds are of the highest quality.

The large deck on the first floor has a covered area for massages and meditation and lounge chairs with a direct view over the Lagoa .
The garden has a variety of local trees, plants and flowers with our `own` banana trees.
The fish pond with carps and a many small fishes is beautiful, in particular at night when a spot light shows the fishes at best.
The garden all around the house is lighted by many Japanese looking lights for maximum atmosphere when the day has come to an end and one enjoys the stars and the moon from the comfortable lounging area.

Apart from transportation by means of a private boat, the house can easily be reached by the regular ferry from the Prefeitura of Lagoa. These ferry boats stop at 24 places along the Costa de Lagoa and the house is situated right next to Posto 11 , at 50 meters from the house.
All along the Costa de Lagoa runs a beautiful and exotic foot path and from the house to the first nice fish restaurant is a 10 minute walk.

All of the above can be illustrated by a large variety of pictures to get a detailed impression of this exceptional house.
