We are delighted to introduce you to a stunningly restored Portuguese farmhouse. The property consists of a main house and outbuildings on 2 large adjoining plots within the protected natural Parque Costa Vicentina in Raposeira, a village parish in the West Algarve's Vila do Bispo region.

Here are some key features: The house nestles among mature olive, mimosa, and pine trees. Lovely, abundant landscaped greenery surrounds the property. The location guarantees excellent sun exposure.

The farmhouse comprises a spacious living area, a large kitchen, 2 bedrooms (1 suite), and 2 bathrooms. The second bedroom is accessible from the outside terrace. A roomy mezzanine provides additional space for comfortable sitting or sleeping quarters. Below the mezzanine lies the bathroom and a small pantry, which currently functions as a utility room.

The outdoor area comprises various terraces, a vegetable garden near the house, a rose garden, and various blooming shrubs. Additionally, diverse fruit trees grow beside the river below the land. Many species of birds, including hoopoes, nightingales, and bee-eaters, find their perfect habitat here. The location allows you to observe the stars from the terrace at night without distracting light pollution. The estate is a paradise for nature enthusiasts; it offers stunning privacy yet is near all amenities and services.

The property has been fully renovated using top-quality building materials. The window frames are durable hardwood with double glazing and wooden shutters. The walls are plastered natural stone with an insulation package and cavity walls, and the interior finish consists of aerated concrete. Furthermore, all floors are isolated and tiled with traditional Portuguese terracotta tiles. The heating requirements are minimal during winter, and the house remains pleasantly cool during summer due to its high-value isolation.

About Accessibility: The property is easily accessible by car, bicycle, or foot via an asphalt road and a country lane from Raposeira. You can also access via a private entry with its bridge over the river from the road to Praia do Barranco.

The beach Praia do Barranco is a 30-minute walk or a swift drive from the house. The beautiful beaches of Praia do Zavial and Praia da Ingrina, all on the Algarve's south coast, are also at a short distance. You reach west coast beaches like Praia do Castelejo or Praia da Cordoama within 10-15 minutes. All these beaches are water sports and surfer hot spots. Vila do Bispo has a daily vegetable and fish market, a health centre, grocery shops, a LIDL, and an ALDI Supermarket.

Lagos, the charming historic coastal town with its vibrant nightlife and marina, is a 20-minute drive.

You reach the International Faro Airport (FAO) by driving between 60 and 90 minutes, depending on the traffic.

The estate has its source of pure drinking water, electricity, landline telephone connection and satellite dishes. Solar panels have been installed for energy generation and hot water. Moreover, the building provides a propane gas installation for cooking and hot water. The property boasts an original 'Nora' well, always full of water. A neighbouring plot shares water rights with a second well that is currently not in use. The sewage system flows into two septic, underground tanks and operates on natural filtration.

Conclusion: This county home, which resembles an oasis, epitomizes a peaceful lifestyle in the West Algarve. Its exceptional location, beauty, and desirable features make it an ideal option for those seeking an extraordinary retreat that offers privacy, ample space for creativity, and proximity to the sea.
