Extraordinary private estate located in Rio de Janeiro’s most prestigious South Zone, positioned on a legally established elevated plateau at approximately 200 meters above sea level. Due to current zoning and environmental regulations, developments of this nature and elevation are no longer permitted, making this residence a rare and non replicable exception. Set on an expansive land parcel of approximately 6 hectares with approximately 3,400 square meters of built area, the residence offers permanent panoramic views encompassing the Atlantic Ocean, Two Brothers Mountain, Atlantic Forest areas of the Botanical Garden, Christ the Redeemer, Vista Chinesa, and the city skyline. Originally developed in the 1980s and later renovated by architect Hélio Pelegrino, the home preserves its architectural essence while benefiting from structural upgrades from foundation to roof and reconfigured interior layouts. Authentic historical architectural elements sourced from the former Palácio Monroe, one of Brazil’s most significant historic landmarks and former seat of the Federal Senate, are integrated throughout the property. Every interior and exterior space offers a distinct visual experience, complete privacy, and seamless integration with nature. Additional highlights include extensive gardens, resort style pool area, multiple entertainment spaces, and rare helipad access, all within minutes of Rio’s finest schools, beaches, and cultural destinations.
