A private collection of architecturally significant residences across a considered selection of European destinations.
EXPLORE DESTINATION →Ten selected residences across ten European destinations, presented through AURELIA’s discreet, private approach.
Private coastal terrace · southwest Mallorca
A sculptural limestone house drawn to an uninterrupted Mallorca horizon. A chef’s kitchen in stone and oak opens to the same plane as the infinity pool; eight bathrooms include a primary wet room cut toward the sea. Quiet, considered, and built for long seasons rather than brief occupation.
Western shore waterfront · private landing
A classical lakeside villa on Como, with a private landing, cypress gardens and rooms quietly recalibrated for contemporary living. A marble kitchen faces the water; nine bathrooms include a primary marble bath with a shuttered lake window. The villa retains its classical Italian proportions, while the water remains a constant presence.
Secluded oceanfront courtyard · western Algarve
A courtyard house that turns first inward — colonnade, still water, white plaster — then opens west to the Atlantic. A limestone kitchen faces the colonnade; six bathrooms include a primary stone bath in Atlantic light. Five suites wrap the court. Outdoor life is the architecture.
Private hillside · north-west Ibiza
A low limestone house built for shade, silence and a long Mediterranean view. A calm island kitchen opens to the pool; six bathrooms include a primary stone wet room. Timber pergolas and dry planting keep the architecture quiet. Five suites open to their own terraces.
South-facing hillside · terraced gardens
A pale Riviera residence among pines, with gardens stepping down toward a panoramic Mediterranean outlook. A stone kitchen opens through French doors; seven bathrooms include a primary bath with a window to the pines. Reception rooms run along the garden façade. The view remains private from the lane above.
Twelve hectares · olive groves, cypress drive
A restored Tuscan estate: stone casa padronale, productive olive groves, guest barn and a quiet court. A contemporary kitchen sits inside the original volume; nine bathrooms include a primary stone bath to the groves. Offered as a complete rural holding — land, house and outbuildings.
South glass to the peaks · ski from the door
A contemporary alpine house in timber and stone, set just outside Verbier so the outlook is mountain rather than street. A chef’s kitchen opens south to the peaks; seven bathrooms include a primary timber-and-stone bath. Ski room, spa and a south terrace usable in both seasons.
Elevated coastal cluster · Aegean horizon
Whitewashed Cycladic volumes arranged for shade, wind and outdoor rooms, sitting above the water with no immediate seaward neighbour. A stone kitchen opens to the terrace; eight bathrooms include a built-in primary bath in Aegean light. Seven independent suites, a plunge pool, and a dining terrace protected from the meltémi.
Gated garden enclave · south to the coast
A contemporary estate set behind lawns, olive and palm rather than on the coast road. A family kitchen-dining opens to the gardens; eight bathrooms include a primary marble wet room with dressing beyond. A double-height hall looks south. Tennis, spa and a long reflecting pool complete the grounds.
Secluded mas · 6.4 hectares, Luberon
A Provençal domaine in pale stone, organised around a courtyard fountain and looking over olive groves toward the quieter Luberon. A limestone kitchen opens to a shaded court; eight bathrooms include a primary stone bath. Walled pool, potager, guest house and chapel — year-round occupation.
Mallorca · Spain
GUIDE PRICE · €5,900,000Casa Aurea occupies a discreet coastal terrace above the water, set back from the public road and approached through a planted cutting in the rock. The house is conceived as a sequence of limestone planes, each turned toward the horizon rather than the neighbouring shore.
Principal rooms are arranged on a single entertaining level: a long sitting room with a sculptural fireplace, a dining volume that opens on three sides, and a kitchen conceived for both private use and service. Six bedroom suites occupy the quieter upper and garden wings.
The kitchen is a working room of stone and oak — a long island, professional range, and a service kitchen beyond — opening on the same axis as the pool so that cooking, dining and the horizon read as one. Wine storage is set into the rock at the lower level.
The primary suite has a private terrace and a bathing room cut into stone, with a deep bath and a wet room toward the sea. Seven further bathrooms serve the guest wings. Outside, the infinity pool, a shaded dining court and a spa with steam and treatment room complete a residence intended for long seasons.
Lake Como · Italy
GUIDE PRICE · €6,400,000Villa Serena stands on the western shore with a private landing, formal gardens and an uninterrupted view across the water to the opposite ridges. The cream stucco façade, shuttered windows and terracotta roof belong to the lake’s classical language; the interiors have been quietly recalibrated for contemporary living.
Seven bedroom suites are arranged over three levels. The piano nobile holds a long salon, a library, and a dining room opening onto a stone loggia. A lower garden level contains a wellness suite, indoor pool, wine cellar and a family sitting room with direct access to the lawns.
The kitchen is a working marble room toward the water — brass, a long island, and a service pantry — arranged so that breakfast, service and the lake are the same daily scene. Formal dining remains on the piano nobile, with the loggia used through the season.
The primary bathroom is marble and cream plaster, with a freestanding bath and a shuttered window to the lake. Eight further bathrooms serve the suites and guest wing. Cypress, a descending parterre, a covered boathouse and a heated outdoor pool complete the waterfront.
Algarve · Portugal
GUIDE PRICE · €4,200,000Casa do Mar is reached down a private lane and turns inward first: a still courtyard, a colonnade, a sheet of water. Only then does the house open west toward the Atlantic, so that arrival is quiet and the sea is revealed rather than displayed.
Five bedroom suites wrap the courtyard. The principal living-dining room is a single volume of pale limestone and white plaster, with sliding planes that dissolve into the colonnade. A separate pavilion holds a study and a guest suite for longer stays.
The kitchen is a long white room of limestone and plaster, with a simple island and a direct opening to the colonnade. Meals move between the court, the ocean terrace and a sheltered dining loggia. An outdoor kitchen sits a level below, on the Atlantic terrace.
The primary bathroom is white plaster and pale stone, with a deep bath and Atlantic light through a high opening. Five further bathrooms serve the suites. The linear pool, succulents and a single olive tree keep the architecture as the principal subject.
Ibiza · Spain
GUIDE PRICE · €4,800,000Can Sol sits on a private hillside among olive and pine, looking out over a long Mediterranean horizon. The house is deliberately low: pale limestone, limewash, timber pergolas. It is designed for shade, silence and a slow daily rhythm rather than display.
Five bedroom suites open to their own terraces. The principal living room is a single calm volume, with linen seating and a continuous threshold to the pool. A separate casita can be closed for guests or used as a studio.
The kitchen is arranged for both informal meals and service — a limestone island, timber, and a direct opening toward the pool. An outdoor salon and fire terrace take the evening. A wine wall is set into the living volume.
The primary bathroom is a pale stone wet room with a deep bath and Mediterranean light. Five further bathrooms serve the suites and casita. The remaining land is left as dry planting, preserving privacy from the lane below.
Côte d’Azur · France
GUIDE PRICE · €3,900,000Villa Lumière is set on a south-facing hillside among pines, with terraced gardens stepping down toward a panoramic Mediterranean outlook. The house is pale, measured and deliberately unshowy — a Riviera residence for private occupation rather than a statement on the coast road.
Six bedroom suites include a primary apartment with dressing rooms and a terrace salon. Reception rooms run along the garden façade: a sitting room with herringbone oak, a dining room opening through French doors, and a library. A lower level holds a cinema, gym and cellar.
The kitchen is an elegant working room of stone counters and oak, with French doors to the middle terrace. An outdoor kitchen sits beside the pool. Formal dining remains on the garden façade, used through the season.
The primary bathroom is pale stone, with a freestanding bath and a window to pines and sea light. Six further bathrooms serve the suites. Stone retaining walls, lavender and a pool terrace on the middle level keep the view private from the lane above.
Tuscany · Italy
GUIDE PRICE · €2,900,000Tenuta Alba is a working landscape as much as a house: twelve hectares of olive groves, a restored stone casa padronale, and a cluster of ancillary buildings set around a quiet court. The estate is reached by a private cypress drive and is not visible from the public road.
Eight bedroom suites are divided between the main house and a restored guest barn. The principal sitting room is a long stone hall with a deep fireplace and arched doors to the garden. A spa and indoor pool have been added within the original volumes rather than as new wings.
The kitchen is a contemporary insertion in the old stone — a long island, a farm table, and an arched opening to the court. Oil and wine are stored in the cellar. The vegetable parterre supplies the house through the season.
The primary bathroom is thick stone, with a deep bath and an arched window to the groves. Eight further bathrooms serve the house and barn. A chapel, a secondary farmhouse and a pool garden complete the holding.
Verbier · Switzerland
GUIDE PRICE · €8,900,000Chalet Étoile is a contemporary alpine house in timber and stone, set just outside the principal village so that the outlook is mountain rather than street. Arrival is at the upper level; living rooms open south through a single glass wall to the peaks.
Six bedroom suites include a primary room with a fireplace and a dressing room. The living floor holds a sitting room and a dining table for fourteen. A lower level contains a spa, hammam, cinema and a ski room with direct boot access.
The kitchen is specified for both family use and a visiting chef — a large island, weathered timber, local stone, and the same south glass as the sitting room. Service is discreet; the table is part of daily life, not a gesture.
The primary bathroom is timber and stone, with a deep bath and mountain light. Six further bathrooms serve the suites. The south terrace is usable in both seasons. Specifications remain understated: no decorative alpine cliché.
Mykonos · Greece
GUIDE PRICE · €4,600,000Villa Thalassa is composed as a cluster of whitewashed volumes rather than a single block, following the Cycladic instinct for shade, wind and outdoor rooms. It sits above the water with a long Aegean view and no immediate neighbours on the seaward side.
Seven bedroom suites are distributed through the cluster so that guests may be independent. The principal living room is a curved white interior with built-in seating, opening onto a sheltered terrace. A lower pavilion holds a gym, spa and staff rooms.
The kitchen is a simple white room of plaster and stone counters, open to the terrace so that cooking remains part of outdoor life. An outdoor kitchen and a dining terrace protected from the meltémi take the evening.
The primary bathroom is a built-in stone bath in curved white plaster, with Aegean light. Seven further bathrooms serve the independent suites. A still plunge pool, built-in benches and spare planting keep the architecture white.
Marbella · Spain
GUIDE PRICE · €3,800,000Casa Mirador sits within a gated residential enclave, set behind mature gardens rather than on the coast road. The architecture is contemporary pale stone and dark timber, with a double-height living hall looking south toward the Mediterranean.
Six bedroom suites include a ground-floor guest pair and an upper primary wing with sitting room and two dressing rooms. Reception is generous: a living hall, formal dining, and a library. Below, a spa, indoor pool, gym and cinema.
The family kitchen-dining is a working room of pale stone and dark timber — a large island, a dining table, French doors to the lawn. A summer kitchen sits on the south terrace. Formal dining remains a separate room for the season.
The primary bathroom is marble and stone, with a wet room and dressing beyond, garden light throughout. Seven further bathrooms serve the suites. The garden is the estate’s principal luxury: lawn, olive and palm, a long reflecting pool, and a tennis court screened by planting.
Provence · France
GUIDE PRICE · €3,600,000Domaine des Oliviers is a secluded mas and garden in pale Provençal stone, approached through a lane of plane trees. The house is organised around a courtyard fountain, with rooms looking out over olive groves and the quieter Luberon countryside.
Seven bedroom suites occupy the main house and a restored dependency. Reception rooms keep terracotta, linen and limestone rather than a decorative Provençal pastiche: a long sitting room, a dining hall, and a library.
The kitchen opens to a shaded court — stone sink, long table, linen, the day’s work in view of the fountain. The potager supplies the house. A wine cellar sits below the dining hall.
The primary bathroom is limestone and terracotta, with a deep bath and garden light. Seven further bathrooms serve the house and guest wing. The land holds a walled pool, a chapel, an atelier barn and a staff cottage — a complete rural residence for year-round occupation.
