Description

Move away from the busy city life and build your own home in the peaceful Algarve countryside. Located just 17 kilometers north of Portimão, this large 13,750 m² plot is the perfect canvas for your dream project. An authentic stone ruin sits on the highest point of the land, offering beautiful, open views of the surrounding hills and countryside.

The property comes with a council-approved PIP (Prior Information Request). This gives you the official right to rebuild the ruin into a lovely home with two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a modern open-space kitchen and living room, and a private swimming pool.

While the ruin sits on the high point with the best views, the rest of the land has plenty of large, flat areas. These are perfect for gardens, fruit trees, or keeping animals. The property is very practical: it has its own water well, electricity is nearby, and there is good road access. This is a rare opportunity to live close to nature, design your own home, and enjoy a calm lifestyle.

About Van Rulo Real Estate, Faro

Van Rulo Real Estate was created by a Portuguese and Dutch couple after more than a decade of experience in the property market. With over 10 years of knowledge and expertise, we felt it was the right time to build something of our own—a company that reflects who we are and what we believe in. That’s why we chose our own name. For us, real estate is not just about properties; it’s about people, trust, and meaningful connections.

We pride ourselves on being approachable and down-to-earth, offering guidance that is both professional and personal. With our multicultural background and ability to speak multiple languages, we are able to connect with clients from many different walks of life. At Van Rulo Real Estate, our mission is simple: to help you find not just a house, but a home—making the journey as welcoming and stress-free as possible.

At Van Rulo Real Estate, our vision is to provide clients with true and transparent information, every step of the way. We believe that buying, selling, or renting a home should never feel overwhelming — which is why we focus on clear guidance and genuine support. Beyond real estate, we connect you with the right people, whether that’s trusted legal advisors, property management companies, or other professionals you may need along your journey. Our goal is to be more than an agency — we are your partners in making confident and well-informed decisions.
