This lovely villa is situated in the unspoilt coastal stretch of Caramujeira, which is home to some of the most beautiful beaches in the Algarve, including Praia da Marinha, Albandeira and Benagil. The popular village of Carvoeiro and the town of Lagoa are both within a 10-minute drive, with a wide range of shops, supermarkets and restaurants nearby. The property is also within a 5-minute drive of Nobel International School.
Double wrought iron electric gates open onto a driveway with ample parking in front of the house and a double garage. The driveway continues to the guest cottage, which is completely separate from the main villa, enjoying privacy, independent access and its own parking area.
The main house
The property has been renovated to a high standard, tastefully combining traditional and contemporary styles.
The spacious open-plan living room is defined by striking high, beamed ceilings. Four double doors flood the space with natural light and open onto the covered terraces, with views over the garden beyond, creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living and providing an ideal setting for outdoor dining and entertaining. A curved log-burning fireplace forms a central feature of the room, while an attractive wooden spiral staircase leads to a mezzanine office or library overlooking the main living space.
The dining area sits adjacent to the bespoke kitchen, featuring solid oak cupboards and black granite worktops, with excellent storage throughout. All appliances are integrated, including a steam oven. Three large windows further enhance the bright and airy feel. A separate utility room is accessed via an archway and provides space for a washing machine, dryer, additional storage and a second fridge.
From the living room, a wooden staircase leads to the impressive principal bedroom, built into the eaves with beamed ceilings. Filled with natural light, the room is both peaceful and elegant, featuring marble floors and double doors
opening onto a tiled balcony with sea views. The en-suite bathroom includes a jetted bath, walk-in shower and double washbasin, while two walk-in wardrobes provide ample storage.
From the entrance hall, a doorway leads to the bedroom wing, comprising three spacious bedrooms, two of which open onto the outside terrace, while all feature fitted wardrobes. A modern tiled wet room and a large bathroom
serve this area. If desired, this wing can be closed off from the rest of the house, making it ideal for guests and extended family, while leaving the principal bedroom and living areas separate, offering excellent privacy and flexibility.
Underfloor heating is installed not only in all the bathrooms, but also the kitchen and the living areas, making the property particularly comfortable during the winter months.
The guest cottage
Sitting in its own private position, separate from the main house, the cottage has been successfully let on a long-term basis, demonstrating strong and flexible rental performance.
It has two comfortable bedrooms and a shared bathroom with a walk-in shower. The spacious open-plan living room and well-appointed kitchen feature a wood-burning stove and double doors opening onto a private shaded terrace,
with outdoor dining and sunbathing areas overlooking the garden and mature trees beyond. Ideally suited for renting or guest accommodation for extended family or visiting friends, it would also make a superb home for multi-
generational living. Useful attic storage is also available.
The south-facing gardens are a key feature of the property, providing a generous and private setting for outdoor living. Benefiting from an automated irrigation system and full fencing, they are beautifully landscaped with mature planting
including palms, pines, olive trees and oleanders, creating a rich Mediterranean backdrop. Expansive lawns surround the house and flow down to the heated swimming pool.
The property is supplied with water from a borehole, with mains water also available if required, while solar panels provide hot water.
Peacefully positioned yet within easy reach of Carvoeiro, Lagoa and local amenities, the property offers an excellent balance of privacy and convenience. Three golf courses are within a short drive, while Faro Airport can be reached in
approximately 45 minutes. Walking and cycling routes can be enjoyed throughout the surrounding countryside and along the nearby coastline, offering a relaxed outdoor lifestyle year-round.
