This beautiful and very well maintained mixed property with 5.2 hectares is for sale, with stunning views over the western Algarve, overlooking the Odelouca dam and all the way to the Atlantic Ocean.
Terraced and carefully designed, the property is perfectly suited to create a rental business (Alojamento Local), as it includes two traditional restored cottages. The property is also suitable as a permanent or holiday residence for those who enjoy mountain life, and yet being in the Algarve and close to its sunny beaches.
The houses consist of the main house (140 m2 + 32 m2 terrace + 20 m2 mezzanine) which also includes an independent studio (30 m2 + 7 m2 terrace + 8.5 m2 mezzanine).
A few steps from the main house is the guest house (45 m2 + 20 m2 terrace + 20 m2 mezzanine), which also maintains the beautiful rustic granite structure and has been renovated in the same style. Behind both houses there is a fully functional traditional bread oven.
The property includes a 24 m2 swimming pool, which is integrated into a large wooden deck with stunning views, ideal as a yoga deck or space for events and outdoor dining. A lounge corner and a bar are also part of the deck. Other features are: a barbecue area, three areas for caravans or camping cars, a large shed for tools and a large shed for storing firewood or for other uses.
The site has two entrances with gates and a third access, which leads to a hiking trail. With many flat areas, the land is very suitable for small agricultural projects and/or for animal husbandry. The land is covered with adult vegetation, including native species such as cork oaks, olive trees and strawberry trees. The property is fully fenced. An automatic irrigation system serves about 1 hectare of the upper terraces.
Although connected to the main electricity grid, the property also benefits from a solar thermal water heater complemented by small electric water heaters. Drinking water comes from a spring, which operates throughout the year. This water is filtered with UV light and kept in two 16 m3 storage tanks. An additional 80 m3 water tank was installed to water the plants, with many taps, sprinklers and hydrants strategically located throughout the site. Two septic tanks are also part of the property.
The entire terrain is well protected in case of forest fires. A fire risk assessment was carried out in November 2023. The buildings are all fireproof, with double glazing, aluminum, rock wool and shingled steel roofs. With this insulation, buildings stay cool in summer and are easy to heat in winter. The main house, studio and guest house have wood burning stoves. Totally new electrical installation, certified and verified annually by EDP (3 phases, 15 KVA). Vodafone mobile phone and internet reception (4/5G). There is an ITED installation for future connection to a fixed network and/or fiberglass.
Although it is secluded and very quiet, the property is very accessible, connected to a paved municipal road.
Distance to the nearest shops and the nearest town (Monchique): 5 minutes by car.
Portimão: 28 minutes; Faro Airport: 1 hour and 15 minutes.
