About TM House

Welcome to TM House: Where Design Meets Nature

Situated in the quaint parish of Lamelas, on the verdant slopes of Santo Tirso, TM House offers a serene retreat. Furthermore, its T4 typology is a testament to thoughtful spatial harmony, blending indoor elegance with outdoor beauty.

Embracing its rustic setting, the house showcases a natural concrete roof. Consequently, this design choice crafts a captivating interplay of light and shadow across the exterior patios.

Sunlight and Space: The Heart of TM House

Inside, TM House’s layout is a deliberate ode to sunlight, with each room positioned to capture the day’s essence. Therefore, the interior benefits from an expanded sense of space, enhancing the home’s airy ambiance.

An ‘L’-shaped design leads from the entrance hall to the outdoors, seamlessly connecting to the pool. Moreover, the corridor ushers residents into a generous living area, complete with a kitchen, laundry, and an adjoining patio. On the east, privacy prevails with an office, two ensuite bedrooms, and a luxurious master suite.

Finally, the home’s south side is a celebration of leisure, defined by a pool and living space, complete with a barbecue area — each element conjoining to forge an idyllic outdoor haven.
