***Bank Repossessions***

Tavira is a historically rich and beautiful Portuguese town just 28 kilometres from Faro and the international airport. Although it benefits from the lively, summer influx of tourism, it stays relatively calm throughout the rest of the year, which lends a very authentic feel to the experience of strolling through the historical streets of this charming Portuguese town. The island beach of Ilha de Tavira accessible by taxi boat as well as the nearby golf courses provide the visitor with a different feel of the various sights to see and experience in the surrounding area.

Renovated and converted into charming apartments, this 15th Century Cistercian Convent overlooking the salt plains of Tavira and the Ria Formosa has something different to offer to buyers interested urban living among historical surroundings. The exterior facade of the monastery has been restored in keeping with its original design with the interior housing an array of different layouts for each apartment. The choice of layout of apartment that are still available for purchase are; single floor apartments, duplexes, triplexes, studios and three bedroom properties.

Each apartment has its own entrance and comes with a private car park located securely within the walls of the development. There is a dedicated reception area which provides pedestrian access to the development and a centralized security system runs throughout. Fitted optical fibre systems, television and internet have also been installed for convenience and to provide a high standard of quality within each apartment.

Conveniently situated within the private courtyard of the convent, are 2 salt water swimming pools and plenty of sun bathing areas.
The beauty of this development is that no apartment is exactly the same so the buyer can be assured of a truly unique purchase. It goes without saying that due to the unique character of each apartment, the development is definitely a must-see for interested buyers. Experiencing the convent in person also makes one appreciate the craftsmanship and thought put into the restoration of this impressive project.
