Description of Property:
A beautifully restored villa complex and swimming pool.
This property is currently undergoing a complete refurbishment by one of the region’s professional Portuguese building companies, whose work is always to a high standard.
The property is built around 2 old stone cottages that have been extended and restored. While maintaining the character of the original buildings, the space is being extended into comfortable living accommodation.
The property is located in a small hamlet and has good open views across the valley.
The property has a private courtyard entered through a double-gated gateway. The area inside will be paved.
The property is entered through the entrance lobby. This gives access to the property’s central staircase, that leads up to 3 double bedrooms, 1 en-suite, and 2 having balconies. There is also a bathroom on this level.
The staircase also leads down to a large open-plan kitchen and dining-room and a large living-room. Both rooms take advantage of a designer fireplace that has a glazed door on each side of the wall. Both of these rooms also have access to the terrace and the swimming-pool.
Throughout the building, natural materials have been used to enhance the property. One of the signatures of this builder is to use large section timber in the roof, exposed from below.
The annexe comprises a 2nd house, developed to provide a large garage facing the main gates, and a roofed terrace with kitchen in front of a 2-storey building that is divided into a living-room with staircase, 2 shower-rooms, one with access from the terrace, and a large open upstairs area with a wooden floor and a substantial wooden ceiling.
The property is still undergoing work to complete. The completion date is late spring/early summer 2009. The property will be completed to the highest standard and the grounds landscaped. The swimming-pool will include pump equipment and will be of a good size measuring 8 x 5m.
The property is also equipped with thermal solar panels, a full central heating system, and a borehole. The terrain will have installed an automated irrigation system.
