Located at the noblest point of Paquetá Island, in Rio de Janeiro, with stunning views of Guanabara Bay, this residence, designed in 1960 by the renowned MMM Roberto office, is an iconic example of Brazilian modernist architecture. It stands out for the pilotis that elevate the structure, giving presence and expanding the useful space. The use of cobogós and continuous windows ensures cross ventilation and abundant natural light, while the exclusive artistic panel by the famous muralist Paulo Werneck adds historical and aesthetic value to the property. Another differential is the hollow staircase, supported by tie rods, which leads to the elegant main access, an innovative door that works as a true well cover. More than a residence, it is a heritage of Brazilian architecture, ideal for those who appreciate modernism and are looking for a property with great potential for customization.
The house has undergone a complete renovation, with the aim of modernizing its facilities and providing greater comfort, while maintaining its unique charm. The electrical system was completely updated, with a new distribution board, greater capacity and dedicated circuits for high-consumption appliances. Touch switches and Wi-Fi outlets, which allow control by devices such as Google Home or Alexa, were installed, in addition to USB and USB-C ports for greater practicality. The hydraulic part was fully replaced, including the installation of water heating, a novelty in the residence. All bathrooms received new individual heaters and modern and efficient showers. The kitchen has been redesigned to optimize its functionality, with hot water taps, increased water pressure, a new pump system and a cooktop installed in the pantry. The main kitchen has a portable cooktop and dishwasher, offering more practicality and efficiency.
Outside, the structural rods that support Paulo Werneck's mural panel have been restored. The external area received a new landscaping project, with the planting of 750 square meters of grass, providing a fresh environment integrated with nature. Internally, the property has a 65-inch TV in the living room and air conditioning in one of the bedrooms, with preparation for additional units in the dining room and living room. This is a unique opportunity to acquire a property of historical value, with all the modernity and comfort of the present.
