Description
Available in 4 languages - Select language for expose text
Located in the heart of the Golden Triangle, just moments from the prestigious Quinta do Lago resort, this is one of the last remaining large plots available for development in one of the Algarve’s most exclusive and sought-after areas. With a total area of approximately 5 hectares, the property offers a natural and private setting, with fast access to renowned golf courses, pristine beaches, and award-winning restaurants.
Surrounded by lush vegetation and mature trees, the plot stands out for its exceptional privacy, natural shade, and peaceful atmosphere — a rare find in this region. A single-storey traditional Portuguese house of 130 m² currently occupies the land, and may be retained, extended or replaced, depending on the future owner's vision.
The development possibilities are broad and flexible, suitable for various residential or investment purposes:
- Residential Construction – Private Villa
The existing house (130 m²) can be extended by an additional 170 m² at ground level, totalling 300 m² above ground. A basement of up to 170 m² may also be added for exclusive use as a garage or storage space, not counted towards the maximum building area. Total gross construction potential: up to 470 m²
- Commercial or Service Projects
The land allows for non-residential buildings up to 500 m², provided the use complies with rural land regulations — ideal for commercial or service-based ventures in a natural and tranquil setting.
- Rural Tourism Development
Construction of up to 2,000 m² is permitted for rural tourism projects, such as eco-resorts, wellness retreats or agrotourism, offering a fantastic opportunity to develop a distinctive concept inspired by nature and wellbeing.
Whether you are looking to build a bespoke luxury residence, launch a unique business, or invest in a flagship tourism project, this plot offers truly exceptional potential in one of southern Portugal’s most coveted locations. Contact us for more information or to schedule your private viewing.
