Maison à vendre - Tavira RBW22570

Full of character and with the most spectacular views, situated in the hills just South of Santa Catarina in Tavira, you will find this lovely villa. Newly built in 1996, it was finished with stunning antique building materials like a 19th century mahogany floor, timber from old ships, handmade roof tiles etc. which gives the house an authentic and homely feel. Great property that can either be used as a family holiday home, permanent residence as well as a B&B since some of the rooms have their own entrance and even pantry kitchen. There are two rows of solar tracking photo voltaic systems which delivers back to the grid, as well as panels for solar heated water. Surrounded by many hiking- and/or mountainbike paths you can fully enjoy nature and still be close to beaches, shops, restaurants etc. Best of both worlds!

Upon entering the villa you will notice straight away, that you have set foot into a truly unique house. The large entrance doors give you access to the hallway, from where the impressive wooden staircase takes you down into the bright open plan lounge / dining area where there are extra high ceilings with lots of natural light flowing in because of the large gothic style windows. From here you already have a beautiful view on the south west situated terraces and hills behind. From this area you can enter the ensuite bedroom to the west side of the villa. On the east side, you will find the large, rustic style kitchen and the second large ensuite bedroom on this floor. Going upstairs from the hallway, you will find a master bedroom with ensuite bathroom, roofterrace with the best view of the whole property. The sunset is gorgeous from here!

Downstairs by two separate entrances from outside, you will find two studio apartments. Formerly in use with the previous owners as part of their successful B&B, but not so much in use right now, so these two apartments could do with some cosmetic renovation works.

While only a 1/2 hour drive from Faro International Airport, This property will appeal to those seeking peace and quiet. With only two sets of neighbours, neither of whom are close or visible from the property, seclusion and privacy are second to none.
