We are very pleased to introduce you to this delightful 3 bedroom villa, located in a village environment on the Silver Coast in Portugal. The property benefits from a stunning kitchen with centre island, lovely living room with wood burner and wood floors, 3 bathrooms, a separate guest annex that could provide two rental units (the property does have an AL licence). There is a large heated swimming pool surrounded by terraces. The house looks out over the countryside and surrounding areas.
In detail ….....
Access to the property is via double electric gates that lead onto a large parking area abutting an interior drive that leads to the garden, garage and annex areas.

A short flight of stairs leads up to the pool area to the front of the main house. To the left of this is a large storage area and in front a set of attractive wooden gates that open onto the front courtyard. There is a front door that opens into the lounge area and a side door that opens into the kitchen.

The kitchen is quite stunning and has been beautifully refitted with a range of base units and a full wall of cabinets and appliances and finished in a contemporary styling. The centre island incorporates the electric hob and provides space for two people to comfortably work side by side. The stone work surfaces incorporate a double stainless steel sink with drainer and mixer tap over. The wall cabinets have an eye level oven and microwave and an integrated fridge and freezer. A double window looks out to the garden. There is a large dining area that will easily accommodate a family sized dining table and chairs.

Just off to the left as you enter the kitchen is a bread and pizza oven that is attractively finished with one of the original wood beams from the property. An additional sitting area is also located here.

An entrance hall with window to the front leads into the spacious living room. The floors are finished with beautiful wood plank flooring and there is a wooden beam to the ceiling. A wood stove in the corner provides heat on evenings when it is a little cooler. Windows look onto the front and the rear of the property.

A door to the left leads to an inner vestibule and to the steps that lead up to the master suite.

The master suite definitely has the wow factor, from the polished solid wood panel floors to the vaulted, beam lined ceiling. This room oozes atmosphere and comfort. There are built in wardrobes and windows to the side and the front looking out over the garden and long distance views over the countryside. Off the bedroom is an ensuite bathroom. There is an entrance to the ensuite where a built in wardrobe/cupboard provides additional storage space. The ensuite has a pedestal sink, w.c., bidet and a corner shower unit. The bathroom is fully tiled and there is a window to the side.

From the living room two steps lead down to an inner hallway which lead to two bedrooms and a bathroom.

The first bedroom has a vaulted ceiling with beams and windows to the side and rear. There are built in wardrobes and the floors are carpeted. The ensuite bathroom has a pedestal sink, w.c., and a shower cubicle.

The second bedroom has a vaulted ceiling with beams. There are carpeted floors, built in wardrobes and windows to the front and side. The ensuite bathroom has a pedestal sink, w.c. and a full bath with shower off the taps. The bathroom is fully tiled and there is a window to the rear.
Annex ….....
There is an annex that is presently used as one unit and is used by the present owners when they let out the main house during the busy holiday months. It should be noted that this annex could very easily be converted into two additional rental units. The property does hold a current and valid AL licence meaning this property is ready to rent out for holidays straight away and thereby provide an almost immediate income if desired.

The annex at present has three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a large kitchen, and dining room and a sitting room. This whole area can be reconfigured to adapt to the new owners best use.

The open plan living/kitchen area here is highlighted with an attractive fireplace that has a wood stove to provide heat to this area. The kitchen is large and has a full range of base and wall units. There is a gas hob with extractor fan over and an electric oven. In addition there is a dishwasher and the work surfaces incorporate a stainless steel sink unit. There are double windows looking out to the garden.

There is also an additional room used as a cosy sitting room that has a wood stove. Another room is used as an office and there is also a utility room here.
Outside …...........
There is a large area that provides parking for 2-3 cars. From here a drive leads down the garden to the single garage, garden and the annex. There is also a path that leads through an attractive garden area to the annex.

From the main parking area are set of steps leading to the beautiful front terraced area that incorporates the heated swimming pool. The pool is heated by way of an air pump system that is both functional and efficient. This extends the use of the pool in the summer months significantly beyond pools that are not heated. Surrounding the pool is a lovely private terraced area that looks out over the views, a great area for outside dining and entertainment.

To the left of the pool is a large storage building that provides plenty of space to store garden furniture, pool equipment and garden equipment.

A set of attractive double gates open into the front courtyard area of the main house. There are defined flower beds in this area planted with beautiful roses. A BBQ area is off to the side.

The garden has been lovingly cared for and planted over the years to incorporate an abundance of trees, colourful shrubs and plants. There are several areas throughout the garden to sit and drink in the peace and tranquillity of the area.
