Charmantes, Charaktervolles Landhaus Mit Pool, Schönen Gärten Und Fantastischer Aussicht

This gorgeous characterful 4-bedroom country property is set in an elevated position, surrounded by beautiful lush gardens, only 6km from the medieval town of Silves with its castle and river front. The sparkling pool is a generous 5m x 10m, and there are plenty of terraces surrounding the house to relax and make the most of the outdoor lifestyle.  Paths wind through the expansive gardens with views over the surrounding countryside and distant hills. 

Originally an old farmhouse (extended with planning permission), this gorgeous home boasts lots of traditional features such as wood beam and cane vaulted ceilings, Santa Catarina terracotta floor tiles, thick stone walls, rustic wall rendering and beautiful hard-wood windows.  

The driveway leads through gardens to the house with plenty of space to park. Steps lead to a pretty covered terrace and doors to the charming living room which is sunny and light with plenty of windows to capture the views. Patio doors lead to the south-side courtyard which is a lovely sheltered space to relax and soak up the sun. There is a wood-burning fireplace for cosy winter evenings.  A door leads to the dining room and from here an archway opens to the kitchen. The kitchen boasts granite worktops, a picture window over the sink, and a separate pantry with plenty of storage space and room for another fridge-freezer. From the dining room a short corridor leads outside to a charming covered terrace overlooking the old bread-oven, gardens and pool. This is an ideal spot for al-fresco dining, and there is plenty of space to relax in the sun as well.

Back inside, the first bedroom is to the east-side of the living room and boasts dual-aspect windows overlooking the gardens. It has built-in wardrobes and an adjacent bathroom with bath with shower over.  Adjacent is a laundry cupboard with a washing machine and storage space.

To the other side of the living room are 3 more bedrooms. The 2nd bedroom features a walk-in dressing room, and steps lead up to the bedroom itself with views west over the garden. The 3rd bedroom also has views west. There is a family bathroom with walk-in shower and double vanity.  Steps lead down to the 4th bedroom, currently used as a cosy sitting room with a wood-burning stove. This room features dual aspect windows plus patio doors to a lovely terrace overlooking the pool, and would make a lovely home-office or guest room.

There is a spacious storage room under the pool terrace ideal for garden furniture, bicycles, beach and golf equipment.  Water is from a borehole.

This fantastic property would make a lovely family home, but would also work well as a holiday home as it is easy to lock up and leave.  Set in a peaceful, countryside location, there are cafés and restaurants within 3kms.  The medieval town of Silves with its river front, castle, and other amenities is only 8 minutes by car.  There are 2 golf courses (Silves and Amendoeira) within 10kms, and there are a variety of international schools (including Dutch, German and English-language) within 6-13km.  Faro airport is 45 minutes on the motorway.
