Algarve, São Brás de Alportel, Portugal

Ideal for those seeking expansive family accommodation across two Quintas or considering a business venture, early viewing is highly recommended. Located just a short drive from São Brás de Alportel, the property is nestled in a picturesque valley, conveniently within 20 minutes of Faro International Airport, the Algarve beaches, & the scenic Serra do Caldeirão.

Quinta “A,” a 116 m² single-storey dwelling, includes:

• A spacious master bedroom with a dressing room & en-suite bathroom.
• A second large double bedroom & a family bathroom off an internal hallway, accessible from both the master bedroom & the sitting room.
• Potential to create an open-plan kitchen & a third bedroom from the existing living space, converting the current kitchen into a utility/cloakroom.

A short walk across the calçada courtyard leads to Quinta “B,” a 244 m² single-storey residence featuring:
• Hallway that extends through to a charming, covered terrace.
• Large open-plan living space with a kitchen, dining, & seating area, an impressive fireplace, & large arched glass doors leading to the covered terrace, adorned with 18th-century millstones imported from Italy.

A further house to refurbish sits away from both Quintas & benefits from a covered area leading into 3 rooms.

The traditional paved terraces surrounding the Quintas enhance the scene, with original features including an era, private seating areas in shaded spots under native trees & shrubs, established grape vines & citrus trees. Beyond the grounds surrounding the Quintas, there could easily be the option for planting further extended orchards or vineyard.
