The access to the property is made through a paved driveway up to the top of a small hill. The elevated position, the size of the land bring privacy and very nice, open views on the countryside around and Monchique. The property is in the same family for more than 50 years. It was an old farm that was renovated through the years to create a charming traditional family home.

The traditional ceilings are also present throughout the living space adding some charms. The house is divided into two parts. In the main part, you will find the dining room, living room, kitchen, 2 bedrooms, a social area and 2 bathrooms. The second part, with its own entrance from the terrace, is a guest bedroom with a bathroom. This room could easily be reconnected to the main part by creating a door. The large terrace in front of the house with its pool, its BBQ, shaded dining area is just perfect to enjoy some family time or just the beautiful weather. A large double door garage completes this property. Mark your visit and fall in love with the place.

Mexilhoeira Grande: Location and surroundings of this property

At a short distance you can find the charming village of Alvor and the city of Lagos with its beautiful beaches and its famous golf courses, such as Penina Golf. Portimão, the largest city in the Western Algarve, with all its infrastructure, is also within walking distance. It was once a place where boat building, sardine fishing and fish processing accounted for most of the town's activity. However, much of this industry has been replaced by tourism, entertainment and services, transforming it into a large residential town, in perfect harmony with its pedestrianised historic centre and riverside areas. This evolution has transformed the city into a desirable place for shopping and admiring its history and proximity to the river and sea. The old and busy fishing docks have also been transformed into a long maritime promenade, integrated in the tree-lined squares of the old part, where there is no lack of cafés, bars and restaurants to enjoy the excellent gastronomy and traditional pastries with a clear view. A few minutes from the city centre is the iconic Praia da Rocha, with its extensive sandy beach, crystal-clear waters and majestic cliffs, which extend to the beaches of Amado and Vau. Ferragudo and Carvoeiro, the thermal springs of Monchique, Lagos (the city of the discoveries) and even Sagres are 20 to 30 minutes away. Lisbon and Seville are about 2.5 hours away and Faro airport is only 45 minutes.
