Description

A Portuguese Quinta near Tavira with panoramic sea views, private hectare estate, swimming pool, tennis court, seven bedrooms and exceptional potential.

Located amongst the rolling hills of the Eastern Algarve, where endless countryside meets the shimmering Atlantic on the horizon, this remarkable Portuguese Quinta invites you to embrace a slower, more refined way of life. 

Approached through electric entrance gates, a sweeping private driveway creates an elegant arrival, revealing a substantial detached residence that perfectly balances traditional Portuguese architecture with generous proportions and timeless charm. Rich in authentic character, the property offers a versatile living space.

The heart of the home is an impressive formal sitting room, where a striking natural stone fireplace with a wood-burning stove creates a welcoming atmosphere throughout every season.

Designed for comfortable family living and entertaining, the accommodation includes a well-appointed kitchen, a traditional wine cellar and a separate wing offering remarkable flexibility with a games room, home office, study, guest cloakroom and seven spacious bedrooms. Many of the principal rooms enjoy uninterrupted panoramic views, while the expansive terraces provide idyllic spaces for al fresco dining, relaxed evenings with friends or peaceful moments overlooking the coastline.

Outside, the estate continues to impress. Mature gardens surround a generous swimming pool, offering complete privacy in a truly peaceful environment. A full-size tennis court provides excellent recreational facilities, whilst an additional outbuilding offers exciting possibilities for guest accommodation, leisure facilities or further development, subject to the necessary permissions.

Modern conveniences blend effortlessly with the property's authentic charm, including air conditioning, solar-powered hot water, fibre-optic internet, fitted wardrobes, a separate laundry room, water softening system, private security connection and an independent borehole, ensuring a reliable private water supply throughout the year.
