This grand five-bedroom house is set within a private, guarded estate in the hills of the Santa Teresa neighborhood. Built in 1940 and owned by one of the oldest families in Rio, the house epitomizes elegance and luxury. The hill-top location gives the house unrivalled views of Sugarloaf Mountain and Guanabara Bay, and the charming restaurants, shops, and cobblestone streets of Santa Teresa are just moments away.

The exquisetly decorated mansion has five vast air-conditioned ensuite bedrooms. All bedrooms come with large bathrooms and walk-in closets, and two of the bedrooms and a reception room have an outdoor terrace where you can admire the amazing view. Beyond the five bedrooms, there is also a TV room leading out to the terrace that can be turned into an additional sixth bedroom with three single beds if needed. Depending on where you are in the house, you have a choice between the view of Guanabara Bay, Sugarloaf Mountain, Christ the Redeemer or even the Maracanã Stadium.

The house benefits from a number of living rooms that spill into one another, as well as a large dining room, kitchen and additional indoor + outdoor dining and living spaces, which accommodate more than 10 people. At the front of the property there is a beautiful spacious terrace with a swimming pool, where again, the view can be marvelled at. Whether with friends or family, cocktails on the terrace are a must!

Although the mansion is located in a private estate, it is still just minutes away from all the action. This luxurious property lends itself to all occasions, and works equally well for families with children of all ages and groups of friends.
