Traditionelles Bauernhaus, Aufgeteilt In Separate Wohnungen Mit Herrlichem Blick Auf Die Landschaft

This beautifully renovated farm house sits on the edge of the quaint, sleepy village of Barão de São Miguel, where time seems to have stood still. Yet the pretty beach-side villages of Burgau and Salema are a mere 7 - 8 minute drive away.

The property has multiple divisions, with 2 sections being used as independent houses (T3 + T2), plus adjoining rural buildings used as another 2-bedroom cottage, a garage space, a workshop and a storage space. The construction totals 400 m², with 221 m² for habitation plus 179 m² of extra buildings.

The spacious main house comprises an entrance hall with beautiful ornate doors, 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms (1 en-suite) and a wonderful open-plan living room with kitchen and dining area. There’s a log burner, with back-boiler linked to radiators, heating the whole house. The kitchen boasts an island with breakfast bar with seating for 4 people. High wooden ceilings plus a large ceiling fan keep this room beautifully cool even in the hot summer months. There’s a large loft space too, accessed via a hatch with a folding drop-down ladder in the hallway. The flooring is the traditional terracotta Santa Catarina tiles, perfect for the Algarve climate. There’s a wonderful covered terrace to the rear, over-looking the land to the countryside beyond.

The adjoining, smaller 2nd house comprises an entrance hall leading to an open-plan kitchen and living room, with a breakfast bar seating 2 people. The living area benefits from a log burner, keeping the house cosy on winter nights. There are 2 bedrooms, one to the front and one to the rear, sharing a family bathroom. There’s a large patio area in front of the house, with steps down to the pergola and barbecue area, the perfect spot for relaxing or entertaining.

The next building is a large garage/workshop with a rough concrete floor, plus a mezzanine level for storage.

Adjacent to this is a rustic dwelling comprising a small living room, a separate kitchen, a shower room and 2 rooms with Velux windows (skylights) in the roof. Outside there’s a little terrace shaded by the olive tree.

Finally, at the end of the row of buildings is a 2nd garage/workshop plus an adjacent store room.

There’s also an outdoor toilet. The plot is 5,888 m² (1.5 acres) of gently sloping fertile land, great for animals or for growing produce. There are 3 separate wells on the property with ample water for irrigation (the houses have mains water supply and a septic tank system). There’s a large parking area with electric entrance gates. 

You can easily walk into the village for a coffee or a drink. There’s a large Intermarche supermarket at Budens, just a 5-minute drive away. If you are looking for a tranquil property where there are options to rent out parts to make an income or to buy in conjunction with others, this is a very nice opportunity.
