JARDIM DO PINTARROXO
High in the rolling hills above the coast, near the village of Santa Barbara de Nexe, this rustic style house offers a unique and characterful living experience on a generous plot, with breathtaking sea and mountain views. It stands alone, surrounded by fields of wild flowers with fig, carob and almond trees. The house has been lovingly extended and restored to a very high standard. The harmonious use of natural materials, combining stone, wood and terracotta tiles, adds to the allure of this tranquil retreat.
The house is unusually spacious, bright and airy with high ceilings. One enters the house through a large, leafy, covered BBQ area with an original bread oven and separate gas hob, perfect for creating lasting memories with family and friends. The entrance hall opens onto the large open plan living space which is very comfortably furnished, with a log fire adapted to heat the entire house. A door opens from the dining room onto the BBQ area. The kitchen is fully fitted and equipped with dishwasher, large fridge freezer, oven, hob and microwave.
The spacious double bedroom has its own sitting area and en-suite bathroom. There is a twin bedroom (currently used as a study) and a second bathroom. Both bedrooms open onto the pool terrace.
A wooden staircase leads to a cosy upstairs twin bedroom, and to a large storage area under the roof.
The very secluded pool (approx 10 x 5 metres), with steps leading in, is set within a tiled sun terrace with shower cubicle, and views to the coast and the hills.
A private, perfect, peaceful retreat with good access, the house is a short drive to local shops, mini markets and restaurants, only 20 minutes distance from the coast, with Loule and Faro within easy reach.
It is ideally situated for accessing the many amenities of the coastal resorts, and the delightful small towns and villages inland. A selection of world class golf courses, horse riding centres and tennis courts are all within a short drive.
