Beautifully located in the old center of the cubist town of Olhão, second line from the Ria Formosa, close to the Market Halls and the ferry docks, this charming ancient villa shows a lot of character and has a history dating back to the 19th century. Famous Olhanense philosofer Francisco Fernandes Lopes was born here and a sign with his name has been placed on the façade in remembrance. This unique villa truly has it all. Downstairs has been completely renovated and can be used or rented out as a two bedroom separate house, upstairs you will find a fully restored second house with two bedrooms and a split level kitchen and lounge area on the top level with access to the roof terraces on two different levels which give you views over the Ria Formosa and the typical cubist houses of Olhão.

Entering the downstairs house you will find the lounge area with the traditional arched ceiling which gives instant character to the interior. Compact but very sufficient there are two bedrooms, one bathroom and a fully equipped kitchen which opens up to the outdoor patio.

From the other entrance you enter the main villa using an ancient staircase which must have the most beautiful ceiling in the whole of Olhão.! Very well preserved and restored this villa definitely has the wow factor. You will not know where to look if you are a fan of details, character and history. The villa has two bedrooms and one bathroom on the first floor and a split level lounge area and kitchen on the second floor with direct access to the first roof terrace from the sliding doors in the kitchen. On the terrace there is separate access to the toilet on this level. From this terrace, you can go even higher to the rooftop terrace which gives you the most beautiful views over the Ria Formosa and the whole of Olhão, the mountains further land inwards even!

The great thing about this villa is that you are in the centre of the old town of Olhão so very close to the boulevard with market halls, ferry, marina, lots of good restaurants etc. You can even park your car in the small road in front of the house.
