According to Portuguese real estate reports, Cristiano Ronaldo's new residence, located in the exclusive Quinta da Marinha area of Cascais, near Lisbon, is estimated at around €35 million. This figure could make the property the most expensive private home in Portugal. However, it must be stated that none of these figures are official; British media offer more modest estimates, ranging between £21.6 million and £30 million. [1]
The €35 million figure refers to the listing price, not necessarily the final market value at the conclusion of the transaction. According to the real estate agency Goldcrest, initial project estimates were around €19.7 million, but costs increased significantly following over three years of construction. The wide discrepancy among various media estimates likely stems from different ways of accounting for costs: land, construction, finishes, or all of them combined. Until a buyer signs, any presented amount remains an estimate. [1]
The property is located in Quinta da Marinha, an exclusive coastal area about 50 kilometers from Lisbon, chosen by buyers for security and tranquility. The plot covers 12,000 square meters, offering views of the Atlantic Ocean. Tranquility is essential for the lifestyle desired by Ronaldo; the publication Marca reported that the player tried to buy the adjacent land to increase the distance from outsiders, but the owners refused. The same source of confidentiality was cited by Goldcrest as the reason why the couple decided to list the property just a few weeks after completing construction. [1]
The high value of the house is determined by its exceptional amenities. In addition to eight bedrooms and an infinity-effect pool, the grounds feature a large glass swimming pool with an underwater corridor, a private cinema, and a private beach. Details attracting media attention include an underground garage, designed for a sports car collection estimated at around £12 million (according to the Mirror), equipped with gold taps. Goldcrest notes that the garage can accommodate up to 30 cars. Ronaldo's car collection, valued at approximately £22 million, exceeds the value of the house itself, with a single Bugatti Centodieci estimated at €11.5 million. [1]
The Cascais house is just one piece of a much larger real estate portfolio for the couple. The Sun estimates that the real estate assets of Ronaldo and his partner are worth a total of £65 million, including a villa in Tuscany, a residence near Madrid, as well as properties in Riyadh and Dubai. Ronaldo's contract with Al-Nassr runs until June 2027, so his retirement from football is not imminent. It is possible the house will be sold before the player retires, and the first verifiable price will only be confirmed upon the actual signing of the transaction. [1]
