Description
This very spacious villa is located just a short 10-minute drive north of the vibrant town of Lagos, in the very peaceful area of 'Colinas Verdes' where all the villas are on large plots, providing privacy from neighbours. This generous family villa has 3 - 4 bedrooms, depending on requirements, and is surrounded by beautiful landscaped gardens with mature trees, extensive lawn and a large fish pond. The villa has been very well-maintained and upgraded over the years, having quality double-glazed windows and a central heating system.
The villa is reach via tarmacked roads and has 2 main entrances with electric gates and video entry, plus a service entrance for gardeners. There's a carport next to the kitchen entrance and a cobbled parking area next to the main entrance. The large entrance hall leads into the living room with beamed ceiling and a STUV feature fireplace. Twin patio doors lead to the covered terrace over-looking the garden. The adjacent dining room also has beautiful views across the garden and opens on to the raised terrace with steps down to the lawn. An archway leads to the modern kitchen with Keller units, and Smeg and Siemens built-in appliances. There's also a breakfast bar and a solid wood stable door leading directly out to the carport, perfect when you're coming in with shopping. In addition, there's an external laundry.
Off the dining room, 3 steps lead down to a large room with a mezzanine level and a small adjacent shower room has been added. This space could be used as a study/ library/ games room or 2nd reception room, or even as a 4th bedroom. On the other side of the villa are 3 further bedrooms - the master suite has its own private bathroom, whilst the other 2 bedrooms share a family bathroom. All 3 bedrooms have access to the gardens and pool and all have fitted wardrobes. The property benefits from electric shutters throughout, plus there are solar panels, both for hot water and electricity production, making the house efficient.
At the far end of the property, the garage has been converted into an office with attached w.c. - ideal if you want to run a business from home. It could also easily be changed back to a garage. The walled private pool area has large terraces surrounding the 10 x 5 metre pool, perfect for entertaining. There's also a sauna to the side of the house. Many paths lead through the beautiful garden and there are numerous private enchanting seating terraces dotted around the property.
This villa would make the perfect home for a large family, or would equally produce a good rental return from holiday rentals. The village of Bensafrim, with chemist, cafes, mini-market and municipal market, is just a 5-minute drive away, and you can also be sitting on Meia Praia beach in Lagos in 10 minutes!
