Nestled in the tranquil countryside between Lagoa and Silves, this exceptional estate offers a rare opportunity to acquire an authentic Algarve property where timeless architecture, modern comfort and a beautiful natural setting come together in perfect harmony.
The estate comprises a beautifully maintained single-storey villa with approximately 240 m² of built area, set on an urban plot of 2,720 m², together with approximately 4.5 hectares of adjoining land, which forms part of the property and is currently leased to an agricultural company. The land is planted with a productive Hass avocado grove, established and maintained by the tenant, who retains the revenues generated by the plantation under the terms of the lease. Surrounded by mature landscaping and enjoying a high degree of seclusion, the property commands magnificent views across the surrounding landscape towards the Monchique mountains, creating an ever-changing backdrop and unforgettable sunsets.
Built with a strong emphasis on quality and authenticity, the villa perfectly balances traditional character with contemporary comfort. Handcrafted Santa Catarina terracotta flooring extends throughout the interior and exterior terraces, while double-glazed wooden windows with traditional shutters reflect the property's enduring quality and timeless appeal. The home is also equipped with air conditioning, remote-controlled ceiling fans and a solar water-heating system with a 288-litre thermal accumulator, and benefits from an Energy Rating A.
The heart of the home is a spacious open-plan living and dining room of over 54m², where a fireplace creates a warm and welcoming atmosphere throughout the year. The adjoining kitchen integrates naturally with the living area, making the house equally suited to everyday family life and entertaining.
The accommodation comprises four generous bedrooms, an additional room currently used as an office, and three bathrooms. The elegant master suite benefits from a spacious walk-in dressing room with natural daylight, creating a private and comfortable retreat.
Outside, beautifully landscaped gardens surround the villa, where expansive terraces, colourful bougainvillea and the swimming pool invite outdoor living in every season. As evening falls, carefully positioned exterior lighting enhances the mature gardens and creates a particularly attractive atmosphere. An automatic irrigation system, supplied by rainwater collection and the property's own borehole, ensures efficient maintenance of both the gardens and surrounding grounds, while an organic vegetable garden adds to the property's self-sufficient character.
At the entrance, an electric gate opens to a private garage and an electric vehicle fast-charging point, adding convenience to the property's discreet and well-considered layout.
The agricultural component of the estate is currently maintained under a professional management contract, allowing the residence to remain entirely private while benefiting from an established and well-organised rural setting.
Although immersed in the countryside, the property enjoys an excellent location just minutes from the centres of Lagoa and Silves, with their schools, restaurants, shops and everyday amenities.
This is a property that combines the character of a traditional country home with the comfort expected of a contemporary residence, offering seclusion, authenticity and an exceptional lifestyle in one of the region's most desirable locations.
