UNIQUE FARM IN PICOTA, MONCHIQUE — 10.6 HECTARES OF NATURE, WATER AND TRANQUILITY
A truly special property, located in one of the most beautiful and preserved areas of the Serra de Monchique, in the Picota region.
With a total area of 10,608,000 m², this farm extends over more than 10 hectares of land, offering privacy, tranquility, excellent access and an increasingly rare and valuable feature: water in abundance all year round.
A PROPERTY WITH PLENTY OF WATER
One of the greatest values of this farm is, without a doubt, its extraordinary water wealth.
The property has:

• 4 water springs, with water sprouting all year round; 2 large tanks, with a capacity of more than 30,000 liters of water; 2 underground stone tanks, each associated with its own spring; 1 large well;
• Several traditional water conduction and storage systems;
• Dozens of flowerbeds and terraces built in stone, which descend towards the stream.

The water is piped to the area of the house, and only the installation of the plumbing inside remains to be completed.
This abundance of water makes the property particularly interesting for those looking to develop an agricultural, tourist, nature project or simply enjoy a self-sufficient farm integrated into the landscape.
EXISTING CONSTRUCTIONS
The property has an urban building with approximately 180 m² of construction, currently in a state of ruin, with potential for reconstruction.
In the same area there are also two annexes, which include two large rooms in good condition and a T0 with mezzanine, currently prepared for housing.
Electricity is available next to the property, allowing you to proceed with the respective connection.
LAND AND VEGETATION
The farm is in a good general state of conservation, with clean and well-kept land, with no predominance of brambles or bushes.
It has excellent access inside the property, allowing you to easily reach different areas of the land.
The vegetation is characteristic of the Serra de Monchique, predominating:

• Cork Oak;
• Strawberry tree;
• Chestnut tree;
• Eucalyptus;
• Other native species of the region.

The property also benefits from excellent sun exposure, from east to west, providing plenty of light throughout the day.
PRIME LOCATION
Despite being surrounded by nature and providing a sense of true seclusion and tranquility, the property is close to all essential services.
Just about 15 minutes from Monchique, where you will find supermarkets, schools, pharmacies, health center, transport, commerce and all the necessary services for daily life.
Closer is the town of Alferce, where you can find small supermarkets, cafes and local shops.
The region is also known for its hiking trails and extraordinary natural landscape. Nearby are the Barranco do Demo Walkways, one of the most interesting routes in the Serra de Monchique, which crosses a landscape of great beauty near the village of Alferce.
Picota, at an altitude of about 774 metres, offers some of the most impressive views of the Serra de Monchique, with an extraordinary panoramic view of the mountains, the Algarve and, on days of good visibility, the ocean.
The beaches of the Algarve are approximately 30–40 minutes away by car.
A HAVEN IN THE ALGARVE
This is a property for those looking for something different.
A place where nature, water, tranquility and proximity to services meet in the same space.
With more than 10 hectares, several springs, tanks, well, terraced land, existing buildings and excellent access, this farm has enormous potential for reconstruction and development of a private, agricultural, tourist or nature project, subject to the respective approvals and licenses.
A true refuge in the Serra de Monchique, where it is possible to live surrounded by nature without giving up the proximity of the Algarve and its services.
A rare property, with a characteristic that is hardly found today: its own water, abundant and present throughout the year.
Come and visit this true paradise in the Serra de Monchique — a unique place, where nature, water and tranquility meet.
