Madeira, Portugal

Ref. 0206
There are places in Madeira that seem to exist outside of time and Paul do Mar is one of them. Wedged between cliff and ocean on the island's southwest coast, this fishing village holds onto a rare authenticity: the Atlantic breaks just metres from your door, and the sun lingers long on the horizon.
It is here, on Rua do Serradinho, that this three-storey house offers everything one imagines when dreaming of Madeira, sea in front, terraces with a barbecue, characterful bedrooms, and the kind of silence only coastal villages know how to keep.
Spanning 83 sqm of private gross floor area across three floors, the house is clear in its layout and versatile in its possibilities. The ground floor holds the living and dining area alongside a fully equipped kitchen. The first floor offers two bedrooms styled with tropical wallpaper and white vintage furniture, and a bathroom with a ceiling rain shower. The top floor adds a third bedroom, a laundry room, and access to a terrace with barbecue, the best seat in the house for watching the sun set over the sea. The covered first-floor balcony, furnished with a bench, is the ideal spot for a morning coffee in the Atlantic breeze.
The property is sold unfurnished; kitchen appliances are included in the sale.
Paul do Mar has a pebble beach, waves celebrated by surfers worldwide, fresh fish restaurants, and a welcoming village community. The vineyards and wine cellars of Calheta are a short drive away, and Funchal is half an hour by car.
A house with character, facing the sea, in one of Madeira's most singular places.
