The LiveAlgarve Realty Team showcases a modern Villa with orchard land and countryside views within the foothills of the Monchique mountains, close to the village of Marmelete in the West Algarve. This rural property balances contemporary architecture and landscape. Built in 2019, the house sits on approximately 10.200 m² of land, where orchards, water sources and open countryside views shape the setting. The environment suggests a slower rhythm of life, yet access to the Algarve’s coastal towns remains straightforward.
The design acknowledges the practicalities of year-round living in the Algarve. The result is a residence that suits permanent habitation, extended seasonal use, or a hybrid arrangement combining work and rural life.
A Modern House Designed for Landscape and Light
The residence offers around 240 m² of built area and has a central open-plan living space. A hallway leads to the sitting room, where large French doors open onto a generous decked terrace. Your view extends across the surrounding valley, and the indoor space remains visually connected to the landscape.
A wood-burning stove anchors the living area, providing extra heat during cooler months in the Monchique hills. Adjacent to the living room, the modern kitchen features a central island and flows into a dining area.
A laundry and mudroom with built-in storage connects the interior to the carport, creating a functional entry point for daily routines.
Bedroom Wing with Direct Outdoor Access
A corridor from the living space leads to the private sleeping area. The layout separates social and resting zones, 2 double bedrooms with built-in wardrobes open onto the terrace. A family bathroom designed for wheelchair access serves these rooms.
The principal bedroom includes an ensuite shower room and a spacious walk-in dressing room. French doors connect the suite to a private terrace, allowing outdoor use without crossing shared areas of the house.
Flexible Outbuilding for Multiple Uses
Beyond the main house stands a separate outbuilding divided into three principal spaces currently used as:
- Gym
- Workshop
- Technical room
An additional tool storage room supports maintenance of the land and orchards. The structure may also serve other uses as future needs arise, such as hobby space, studio work, or additional storage.
Land, Water Resources and Orchard Planting
The 11,200 m² plot combines landscaped garden areas with productive land. Two orchards and a kitchen garden support small-scale cultivation, while the wider grounds contain a diverse selection of fruit trees, including:
- Guava
- Mango
- Grapefruit
- Lemon and lime
- Orange and Seville orange
- Fig
- Pomegranate
- Apricot
Palm and cypress trees punctuate the landscape. 100 metres, introducing a natural boundary and seasonal water presence. In addition, the property benefits from a well and a 200-metre borehole, supported by a 1,000 m³ water storage tank and a magnesium filtration system.
