Stunning Contemporary Home With Pool and Views to the Coast

This gorgeous, recently-built 4-bedroom home is set in an elevated position and is designed to make the most of indoor-outdoor living. It features a beautiful pool and entertainment area, and a stylish open-plan living space with spacious terrace from which to enjoy the views all the way to the coast.

Set on the edge of a peaceful village and surrounded by pretty countryside, this luxury property is walking distance to the market town of SB de Messines. A quiet country lane leads to the property, with automatic gates for cars plus a pedestrian gate with video entry and a pathway to the front door.

The front door opens to a double-volume entrance hall. From here, stairs lead up to the open-plan living space which is on the upper level to make the most of the gorgeous views. An elevator connects both levels for total wheelchair accessibility and ease of transporting heavy items. 

The open-plan living room boasts wall-to-wall glass doors which fold back to create seamless indoor-outdoor flow. A spacious terrace spans the width of the living room, with a stylish pergola for shade. There is plenty of space to relax and soak up the views which stretch all the way to the coast, as well as space for al-fresco dining. Back inside, the lounge features a log-burner for cosy winter evenings, and there is a patio door to another side terrace with lovely views to Monchique mountains. The dining area is great for indoor entertaining and has east-facing windows with pretty countryside views.  Next to the dining area is the stylish kitchen with custom-designed solid wood breakfast counter. There are plenty of cupboards and work-space, as well as top-quality appliances including a Bora induction hob with built-in extractor, 2 eye-level ovens, microwave, warming drawer, dishwasher, and fridge-freezer.  A picture window over the sink gives beautiful views north over the rear garden. Next to the kitchen is another room, currently used as a pantry, with a glass door to another terrace overlooking the north garden. This would make a great home office.

Also on this level is the 4th bedroom (currently used as an office) with dual aspect windows, plus a guest toilet.

Back downstairs, there are 3 spacious bedrooms, each boasting patio doors to the pool-side terrace, ideal for stepping out of bed for a quick swim. Two of the bedrooms have en-suite bathrooms, and the master bedroom also has a walk-in wardrobe.  All bedrooms have ceiling fans, plus air-conditioning. There is underfloor heating throughout for year-round comfort. Also on this level is a family bathroom with a bathtub, walk-in shower plus double vanity.  There is also a utility / laundry room with raised washer and dryer (for ease of use), built-in cupboards and access to outside.  Next to here is the connecting door to the single car garage which is equipped with electric car charger.

Outside, the salt-chlorinated pool is surrounded by terraces with bench seating and plenty of space to sunbathe. A separate annex next to the pool contains a room with plenty of space for storing summer furniture, as well as a drinks' fridge, plus an outdoor shower and another WC.  There is a lovely shady terrace with BBQ, ideal for summer meals next to the pool.  There is gas piping to here in case you prefer a gas BBQ. The pool has an electric cover, which helps maintain water temperature and minimise evaporation, with an app for easy opening and closing. Hot water from the thermodynamic panels can be used to heat the pool, if necessary.

The low maintenance Mediterranean garden which surrounds this luxury home is already reaching maturity and has been designed to be highly water-efficient with drought-resistant planting, along with feature lighting so that you can enjoy it in the evenings as well. There are underground irrigation pipes already installed, should you wish to use them.

This energy-efficient property boasts lots of extras: thermodynamic solar panels for hot water and underfloor heating (which is throughout the house); air-conditioning to heat and cool; photovoltaic panels to generate electricity; dedicated technical room; elevator with dedicated emergency phone; electric shutters with master switch; alarm system; water circulation system for instant hot water; filtered water for drinking; electric car charger; and automatic gates and garage door.

Set back from the coast, in a peaceful location, It is less than 2km from the market town of São Bartolomeu de Messines with a daily fruit and veg market, restaurants and cafés, hotel, train station, schools, health centre and other amenities. The medieval town of Silves with its castle and river front is only 16 minutes by car.  The property is in a lovely area for hiking, close to the "Via Algarviana" walking trail which stretches across the Algarve, and yet is very convenient for access to the coast, golf, shopping and international schools.  This would make a lovely family home, but would also be a great lock-up-and-leave property given the low maintenance garden and automated systems. It is only 38 minutes to Faro airport.
