This is a beautiful bungalow style Quinta with stunning views across the nearby Nature Reserve at Salgados and coast. Comprehensive amenities are close by including riding stables, tennis, golf courses, Albufeira marina and lovely beaches just 10 mins away. The area of its location is considered locally as “ecological”.The total area of the estate is around 6000m2 sloping down through six fully mature garden terraces and a small valley. With mature palm trees and many other indigenous trees and shrubs there is total privacy. From the main terrace the view is of the opposing unspoilt hillside, lagoon & bird sanctuary and sand dunes to the sea. 360Ί views from the roof terrace are superb, in fact the Algarve as it was – unspoilt & natural- yet benefiting from its proximity to the sea and major facilities, especially one of the finest Shopping Centres in the Algarve at Guia.The estate has been fully developed by its current owners over several years. It is unique in that it has been divided into two self-contained units, interconnecting by a patio.
This would be suitable for two families to share or it could revert to a single imposing residence. The living areas are generous and open plan (290 m2), yet there are some snug, cosy areas for intimate evenings such as the round “dome” with fire place under a high cupola or turret ornamental structure. Finest materials have been used in its design creating many arches and stone built niches and shelves all giving a distinct Moorish ambiance. The villa has a total of 5 bedrooms all of which are en-suite; the possibility does exist to increase with some modification. Typical tiles in the bathrooms are framed with hand-painted borders as is the Azulejo feature in one of the walk-in showers. Because of its present usage there are 2 sitting rooms with fireplace, 2 office/library, 2 dining areas plus ample utility/storage. Other features include a carport for two cars, small house used as utility area and storage, an exterior kitchen with small wine cellar and a generous BBQ area for ideal for entertaining and where magnificent sunsets may also be enjoyed. The private swimming pool is sheltered and has an adjacent sauna.
This is a very special property and a much loved home at the same time. Examples as such are rare and it surely this is the Algarve its very finest!
