Casa das Pedras, Monument of public interest in Parede, Portugal.

Casa das Pedras is a four-story house in Parede located on elevated ground next to the coastal road and near the beach. The building displays late romantic design features and was constructed entirely using locally sourced stones with varying textures and colors.

The house was commissioned by Manuel de Azevedo Gomes, a Portuguese commander and frigate captain close to Admiral Nunes da Mata, one of the promoters of Parede. The project was entrusted to architect Nicola Bigaglia and the building was completed in 1903 on the grounds of the former Quinta do Moledo.

The house takes its name from the stones gathered on nearby beaches, mainly sandstones, basalts and limestones worn by the sea. It is one of the most representative examples of late-Romantic summer architecture in the municipality of Cascais, built for commander Manuel de Azevedo Gomes, a captain-de-fragata close to Admiral Nunes da Mata, one of the promoters of the town of Parede.

The house is a private residence, so it can only be viewed from outside while walking along the coastal road. The best way to see it is from the promenade near the beach or from Marginal Avenue, which runs directly past the property.

The house stands on a 23-metre rise above the sea, overlooking the Avenida Marginal and the Praia das Avencas. It was commissioned by Manuel de Azevedo Gomes, a Portuguese frigate captain close to Admiral Nunes da Mata, one of the promoters of the town of Parede. The project was entrusted to Nicola Bigaglia.
