What is the location like?

Surrounded by pine forests, soft dunes, and the shimmering Atlantic coast, the area offers an alluring balance between tranquil nature and refined amenities.

Where is the villa located?
This exceptional estate lies in a prime position between Almancil and Vale do Lobo, just a short drive from Faro International Airport. While it feels wonderfully secluded thanks to its mature trees, rolling grounds, and elevated garden setting,
Vilamoura is just 20 minutes away and at the Praça in Vale do Lobo or the Quinta Shopping in Quinta do Lago, just a 5 minutes drive you will find shops and restaurants. It is only five minutes from elite international schools, stylish shops, gourmet restaurants, and the full suite of services you'd expect in one of Europe's most prestigious holiday regions.
Finally, Faro international airport is located a twenty three drive from this home and you can walk to Praia do Vale do Garrão beach in 30 minutes. The property's peaceful location offers privacy without isolation - perfectly placed for beach days, golf rounds, and weekend escapes to Lisbon or Seville.
What is the villa like?
Set across 1.4 hectares of meticulously landscaped land, this traditional-style villa exudes timeless charm with rustic elegance and modern eco-upgrades. A sweeping driveway leads to a secure, gated entrance, opening to a lush oasis complete with jacaranda trees, fruit orchards, and shaded terraces. Inside, the villa offers a warm and welcoming interior, with terracotta tiles, traditional Portuguese design, and natural light flowing through every room.
The ground floor hosts three beautifully appointed en-suite bedrooms, a spacious living and dining area, and a fully equipped kitchen that connects seamlessly to the sun-soaked terrace and pool. A versatile guest suite also provides accessible accommodation for those with mobility needs. Ascend the spiral staircase tower to discover the luxurious master suite, complete with a double bathroom, expansive terrace, and stunning views reaching to the sea on clear days.
Outside, you'll find a generous pool, shaded outdoor kitchen and entertaining area, plus extensive equestrian facilities including stables for up to six horses, a riding arena, and direct access to countryside trails.
