Description
Created from an old farm estate, and lovingly restored and extended under the watchful eye of its architect owner, this unique country property is a pleasure for the senses. Currently a permanent residence, the estate makes use of its additional houses, operating as a highly successful ‘Boutique Hotel’ in the summer months. Its traditional ‘quinta’ style oozes rustic charm, combining it memorably with contemporary comfort. The owners feel it is time for them to downsize, hence their intention to sell this enchanting property.
A prime opportunity if you are looking to start a Boutique Hotel in the Algarve, the house is ready to move into and is already active on the market.
The estate is divided in different properties to rent out:
The main farmhouse contains a studio, composed of a living area with kitchenette and stairs up to a one-bedroom suite. This side of the house also has double bedroom suite, which could be rented out together with the studio, to accommodate a family. This is joined by another bedroom suite suitable for renting. The first floor of the main farmhouse features a beautiful master bedroom, currently in use by the owners as their private bedroom. On the ground floor there is a large open-plan kitchen with dining area, a TV room and a lounge/hall with the stair case to the first-floor mezzanine with some office space. The main house could be connected via a covered patio (still to be created-plans available) to Casa Nova, creating a larger villa.
Casa Nova is a duplex apartment with a large living room, dining area and separate kitchen. The ground floor continues with a bedroom suite, with separate access. Upstairs there are two bedroom suites.
Casa Velha beautifully combines a living room with kitchen and one bedroom suite. Its fabulous terrace overlooks the fields and rolling hills surrounding the estate.
Garden Room - the most recent addition to the house: a very private bedroom & bathroom in a separate dwelling, with it's own private terrace
Horse stables in the grounds have been converted into accommodation. The pool is situated a little away from the house in the old water tank, providing a lovely spot to escape the heat. Open and covered seating areas are dotted around the property, providing a real sense of retreat.
Lending itself to multiple purposes, including family residence, boutique hotel or retreat, the peaceful rural location of this property offers out-of-the-way seclusion, while still very close to local beaches and islands and the charming city of Tavira.
