Estate de Terrosa | A Home Above the Mandovi

Reis Magos has a quieter side to Goa. Set above the Mandovi, the hill village remains close to the city, restaurants and cafés, yet retains the feeling of a place lived in rather than visited. Estate de Terrosa sits within this landscape, on a gentle rise where the river, greenery and changing light become part of the experience of home.

Pool View

The experience begins with the way the house opens itself to the outdoors. Large windows bring in the light and views, while courtyards, sit-outs and the pool create spaces to move between through the day. Inside, warm beige stone, muted oak, earthy upholstery and brass details keep the interiors understated. In one of the rooms, a bookshelf conceals a door, opening into a private space beyond — a small detail that adds an element of discovery to the home.

Living Area

The L-shaped architecture follows the natural slope, placing the bedrooms and private spaces within the more enclosed wing, while the living areas open towards the terrace, pool and landscape. The lower volume feels grounded and solid; above it, glass and timber create a lighter connection with the surroundings. Natural ventilation and generous openings keep air and light moving through the home.

Bedroom

Living here is closely tied to Reis Magos. The day can move between the pool, shaded courtyards, open living spaces and the river beyond, with the home offering both privacy and places to come together. It is a way of experiencing Goa that feels connected to the landscape, while remaining close to the everyday life of the village.
