Algarve, Olhão, Portugal

Exclusive residence in the heart of the Algarve, where traditional Portuguese character meets contemporary elegance. Located in a rural enclave of Moncarapacho, the property was renovated in 2024 using high-quality materials and energy-efficient solutions, while preserving Algarve architectural elements such as hand-painted tiles in the kitchen and Santa Catarina terracotta flooring throughout.

Fully fenced with an electric gate, the property extends over 5,240 m² of mature gardens, accessed via traditional Portuguese calçada. The ground floor includes an entrance hall, guest bathroom, spacious open-plan living area with a circular wood-burning fireplace, fully equipped kitchen, and two bedrooms with direct access to the terrace, one of which is en suite. The upper floor is entirely dedicated to the master suite, featuring a panoramic terrace overlooking the Algarve countryside with a glimpse of the Atlantic. Attached to the main house, an additional suite with independent access is ideal for guests or as an office.

The outdoor area is the true heart of the property: a terrace with a fully equipped outdoor kitchen, covered dining area with fireplace, and outdoor shower allow for year-round outdoor living. The 5x10 m saltwater swimming pool is heated via heat pump and includes an automatic safety cover. The private orchard features more than thirty fruit trees, including orange, mandarin, lemon, almond, olive, loquat, fig, banana, mango, papaya, guava, and avocado trees.

Outstanding features include 40 grid-connected photovoltaic panels (84% renewable energy), heat pump, Daikin multi-split air conditioning, underfloor heating in bathrooms, a high-capacity private well for irrigation, 5G fiber optic internet, and a garage space.

The location combines the tranquility of the Algarve countryside with immediate proximity to the coast: 4 km from Fuseta beach and the Ria Formosa, 20 km from Faro International Airport and renowned golf courses, 2 hours from Seville, and 3 hours from Lisbon.
