Cascais, the ‘premium suburb’ of Greater Lisbon
Cascais enters 2026 firmly positioned as the premium suburb of Greater Lisbon, combining a beautiful coastline, international schools, complete infrastructure and quick access to the capital. The result is a market with some of the highest prices in the country and international demand well above the national average.
Prices by area: from the historic centre to emerging districts
In prime areas such as the historic centre, Gandarinha and Quinta da Marinha, apartments and villas can range between €7,000 and €10,000/sq m, going higher still for sea-view or otherwise unique properties. In residential or emerging districts, such as Fontaínhas and Alvide, average prices sit between €4,000 and €6,000/sq m, with significant appreciation potential.
