Historic Building with Garden in Tavira Centre

Unique Algarve investment opportunity with generous outdoor space, premium renovation potential and possibility for a multifamily project. 

In the heart of Tavira’s Historic Centre, among Portuguese cobblestone streets, traditional façades, and the authentic atmosphere that makes this city one of the most sought-after in the Algarve.

With a striking presence and a size that is rare in the city centre, this building offers a hard-to-find combination: a prime location, a large private garden, and multiple real estate development possibilities.

The charm of traditional Algarve architecture, combined with the versatility of its interior and exterior areas, allows for different premium renovation concepts.

Spread over ground floor, first and second floors, the building currently comprises seven independent units, including residential, retail and services, preserving various traditional elements and common areas with high potential for architectural enhancement.
