Algarve, Lagoa, Portugal

Set in the peaceful countryside of Vale d'El Rei, between Lagoa and Carvoeiro, this four-bedroom villa brings together two very different sides of the Algarve: the warmth and character of an original country house and the light and comfort of a modern architecture.
Beyond the automatic gates, the house sits within 2,700 m² of fully enclosed land, with ample space for several cars and a dedicated parking space with a Zappi electric vehicle charger. The gardens offer privacy, established planting and a children's playground where younger family members can enjoy the outdoors safely.
Step into the contemporary wing and the sense of space immediately changes. Completed in 2023, the modern extension features high ceilings above a bright open-plan living area, while large sliding double-glazed doors disappear into the walls, allowing the living and dining room, fully equipped kitchen, terrace and pool to become almost one continuous space. Above the living space, a mezzanine beneath skylights adds another layer to the house. Currently used as an office, it could easily become a quiet reading or games area or relaxed second lounge.
The principal bedroom suite enjoys its own sense of privacy, with a dressing area, en-suite shower room and direct access to the terrace and garden. Two further double bedrooms lie within the connecting wing, including one en suite.
Then, as you move through the property, the atmosphere changes! Inside the original house, timber beams, a fireplace and more traditional proportions create a warmer, quieter mood. Here, an additional bedroom and bathroom sit alongside their own living and dining area and fitted kitchen which provide visiting family or friends the ability to stay independently without ever feeling separated from the rest of the home.
Outside, life naturally gathers around the heated and covered swimming pool. The house wraps around this central space, with terraces, living areas and bedrooms all opening back towards it. There is room for long lunches, sunbathing, evening barbecues. When a quieter moment is needed, the rooftop terrace offers something completely different. From here, the view opens across the surrounding countryside towards the Serra de Monchique.
Behind the lifestyle, the property has also been designed with everyday efficiency in mind. A 10 kW photovoltaic system with battery storage helps reduce reliance on the electricity grid, while rainwater collection and a grey-water processing and reuse system help lower water consumption and support the irrigation of the grounds. Moreover, nderfloor heating in the modern extension and air conditioning in the original wing provide comfort throughout the year, and a separate laundry room and additional storage make it more practical.
