About this place

Outstanding coastal living along the Ria Formosa

Occupying a prime position within the prestigious Quinta das Salinas enclave, this striking contemporary villa captures the essence of refined coastal living. Close to the iconic Quinta do Lago boardwalk, which meanders along the edge of the Ria Formosa Nature Reserve, and moments from the golden sands of Ancão Beach, the setting is as compelling as the home itself.

Situated on a 619.50 sq m plot, with a further 867 sq m incorporated into the mature landscaped gardens, the property enjoys an uncommon sense of space and privacy. Renovated to an excellent standard, the villa blends clean contemporary lines with a relaxed Algarve lifestyle, equally suited to full-time living or a strong high-end rental proposition.

At its heart, the home unfolds into a bright and welcoming open-plan living space. The lounge is thoughtfully arranged around a fireplace, flowing naturally into the dining area and a sleek, fully equipped kitchen fitted with Bosch appliances, an American-style fridge freezer and a generous breakfast bar. Expansive glazing floods the interiors with natural light and draws the eye outward, where terrace, pool and garden become a seamless extension of the living space.

The accommodation spans two floors, in addition to the sun-filled roof terrace, where you can enjoy those quiet, picturesque sunrises or sunsets. The ground level comprises three elegant en suite bedrooms, one of which opens directly on to the pool terrace, creating a tranquil, resort-style atmosphere, complemented by a guest WC.

The first floor is reserved for the principal suite, a private retreat featuring an office area, a terrace overlooking the gardens, and direct access to a rooftop terrace offering an added layer of seclusion.

Outdoor living takes centre stage. Shaded terraces invite long lunches and evening gatherings, while the integrated gas barbecue sets the scene for relaxed al fresco dining. The private swimming pool, measuring approximately 8 × 4 metres, can be heated and is fitted with an electric cover. A discreet forecourt provides private parking, completing the sense of understated practicality.

Perfectly positioned between Vale do Lobo and Quinta do Lago, the villa benefits from direct garden access to the lakeside path leading to Quinta do Lago with the Shack Bar, and Casa do Lago, in addition to the celebrated beachfront restaurants of Ancão, including 2 Passos.

A beautifully finished contemporary villa where location, lifestyle and understated luxury come together, offering a rare opportunity to enjoy one of the Algarve’s most desirable coastal settings.
