About this place
This is a rare opportunity to purchase a fully renovated property offering both a lovely private living area and a café/restaurant, in the middle of a small town in the heart of the Algarve. Situated on a small street in the historic heart of a picturesque town, this mansion style townhouse was originally built around 1900 and has been stylishly renovated by the current owners a century later. Supermarkets, pharmacy, bank, post office, café and restaurants are also in the village, while the beautiful beaches, various golf courses and Vilamoura with its famous marina are only a short drive away. The international airport of Faro can also be reached in about 25 minutes. The building consists of 3 floors; on the ground floor there is a small café/restaurant, which is currently leased by the owner. There you can sit under the vaulted ceilings or outside in the shade of the Jacaranda trees. These areas have indoor and outdoor seats, a bar and kitchen area, and toilets. A staircase made of stone leads up to the private areas. Here you’ll find a cosy bright living room with fireplace, as well as an office, 2 bedrooms sharing a large recently renovated bathroom and a fully furnished and equipped kitchen with adjoining dining room. There are cosy high wooden ceilings and wooden floors throughout. The master bedroom is on the top floor, in the converted attic, with its own beautiful open style bathroom and private roof terrace with stunning views over the rooftops of the old town. A very charming outdoor area with lots of privacy and lovingly designed details, complete this townhouse. From the kitchen there is access to the terraces on 2 levels, with a beautiful barbecue area, various plants and cosy sitting areas. An old cistern has been converted into a mini-indoor swimming pool. In addition, there is a large double garage with access from a side street. A truly excellent opportunity to purchase an urban property within walking distance of all amenities! Curious? Contact us for more information or to arrange a viewing appointment!
