An excellent investment opportunity, with the possibility of capital appreciation and living in the historic city of Silves.
Silves was the first capital of the Algarve, with layers of history revealing occupation since the times of various peoples - Phoenicians, Romans, Muslims, and Christians.
Its geographical position was decisive for its development throughout history.
Classified as a strategic point of connection between the coast, the sea, the major maritime and land transport routes, it still breathes in the town square, in the medina walls, in the cistern, in the castle, in the cathedral, and in the layout of the old town.
And even today its short distance to the County's Beaches - Carvoeiro, Benagil - and the beauty of the Algarve coast, allows easy access without the summer crowd and its hustle and bustle bothering your daily life. Close to public and private educational establishments - the International School of the Algarve NOBEL and the German school, it can be a reason for families to live in Silves.
The city of Silves is recognized for the concept of Slow-City (Cittaslow), which originated in Italy and today is a worldwide and contemporary movement that values a way of life that promotes well-being, personal, social, community, and environmental development.
Slow Cities present themselves as havens from the frenzy of modern life, they should not have more than 50,000 inhabitants, which corresponds to a small-sized city, implementing programs aimed at reducing noise in the city, traffic control, increasing pedestrian areas, and defending their local products. This is through the combination of the contemporary with its current reality and the space with its history and identity, the goal of slow cities is the combination of the best of both worlds.
The 'Slow City' category is thus a quality seal that denotes commitment and a reference point for residents, tourists, and investors who expect from the city credibility regarding sustainability for both inhabitants and nature.
