Algarve, Portimão, Portugal

Escape to your own paradise in the hills of the Algarve! Imagine a life of tranquillity and space in this architect-designed villa, set on a sprawling 21,000 m² estate, just minutes from the charming village of Mexilhoeira Grande. Built in 1990 with distinctive flair, this hillside retreat boasts approximately 2,000 m² of beautifully landscaped gardens, with breathtaking, unobstructed views of the mountains and a sense of complete seclusion and tranquillity.

The style of the villa is unique and inviting, differing from typical Portuguese country houses. High-quality hardwood doors and windows and an idiosyncratic layout add character and charm.
