Key features

Property type: restored historic house, can be arranged as a 4-bedroom

Gross built area: 223 m² (205 m² private)

Plot: 308 m² | Swimming pool | Private parking

3 bathrooms | air conditioning | two patios + roof terrace

The house is laid out over two floors, both with direct outdoor access. The thick original walls keep the ground floor naturally cool on summer days, and details such as the glass pivot doors and the original timber structure give every space its own character.

Ground floor — privacy by the patio

The ground floor holds a bedroom, a bathroom and family support spaces. Direct access to the patio invites al fresco meals, reading or simply unwinding in complete privacy.

There is also the option to create an additional smaller bedroom currently used as a laundry room, or to use this space as a home office — ideal for remote work or guest accommodation.

First floor — two bedrooms and a generous living room

The first floor offers two bedrooms, two bathrooms and a generous living room with space for both lounge and dining areas. The practical, versatile kitchen suits everyday life as well as gatherings with family and friends.

Access to the roof terrace extends the living space outdoors, beside the pool.

Two interconnecting patios, roof terrace and pool

The patios are reached from each floor and linked by an outdoor passage, creating a continuous flow between the house and its outdoor spaces. The lower level feels secluded and sheltered; upstairs, a charming terrace overlooking Castro Marim Castle and a saltwater swimming pool invite you to make the most of the Algarve sun and its warm evenings.

Private parking within the property is a particularly rare and valuable convenience in a historic town centre.

To live in, holiday in or invest

This property suits buyers seeking a permanent residence or a second home in the Algarve, with room to host guests and work remotely.

For investors, the house offers potential as a whole-house holiday rental, appealing to families and small groups. The Local Accommodation licence is not currently active, but the property’s configuration — the option to arrange up to four bedrooms, a generous living room, pool and patios — provides the ideal basis for licensing the activity and combining personal use with a future source of rental income.
