Description

This extraordinary property is accessed via a long, sweeping driveway lined with trees, leading to a second gate that opens onto a grand courtyard. To the right are manicured gardens and to the left lies the impressive entrance to the villa. Stepping into the villa, a few steps lead to the main hall, where soaring ceilings with traditional architectural features create a sense of grandeur.

To the right is the living room, while the kitchen and dining room are on the left. Straight ahead, expansive terraces offer a stunning vista of the heated pool, the extensive gardens, and the converted stables. The ground floor includes two spacious guest suites, while a curving staircase leads to the first-floor master suite, offering privacy and breath taking views. Outside, a one bedroom self-contained guest annex, attached to the main villa, provides additional accommodation.

On the rooftop, an outdoor BBQ and dining area takes full advantage of its elevated position, with sweeping views of the distant sea. Framed by the villa and the annex, the large heated pool is the centrepiece of the outdoor space, surrounded by beautifully landscaped gardens. One side features a BBQ area, while the other boasts a fountain.

A central pathway leads to the former stables, which have been transformed into two additional guest apartments and a gym. The integration of solar panels makes the property highly eco-friendly by utilising renewable energy, reducing reliance on non-renewable resources, and lowering its carbon footprint.

The 39 solar panels on the roof generate clean, sustainable electricity for the estate, minimising dependence on fossil-fuel-based energy grids and significantly reducing greenhouse gas emissions. This not only benefits the environment but also enhances cost efficiency by lowering utility expenses. The 10 panels dedicated to heating the pool provide an environmentally friendly alternative to traditional gas or electric pool heaters, maintaining a comfortable temperature without increasing energy consumption.

Additionally, the two panels for hot water supply the villa with a consistent, renewable source of hot water, eliminating the need for energy-intensive electric or gas boilers. Together, these systems demonstrate a commitment to sustainability, aligning the property with modern eco-friendly living standards while offering long-term financial savings and reducing its environmental impact. The rooftop terraces, being the highest points, offer panoramic views, while the master bedroom terrace on the first floor, benefits from its strategic elevation and orientation toward the sea, ensuring sight to the ocean. The property also includes a tennis court, located on the far side of the pool from the annex.

The entire estate spans approximately 26,760m2, with one-third cultivated and the remainder left rustic, ensuring privacy and a serene natural environment. This unique villa combines luxurious living with eco-friendly features, offering stunning outdoor spaces, state-of-the-art facilities, and an unparalleled sense of tranquillity, making it an exceptional permanent home or investment opportunity.

Currency Exchange

Faro, Faro, Portugal, 8005-487

Interested in this property? Don't lose out to currency fluctuations changing the price you pay...

Many overseas buyers in Portugal do not realise they can lose thousands of pounds through adverse currency exchange rate movements.

The property buying process in Portugal takes time; it could be up to six months between seeing the property of your dreams and actually taking ownership. So how much would this €1,600,000 property cost you?

Property Price € Minimum cost in the last six months Maximum cost in the last six months Fluctuating exchange rates over the last six months could have increased the cost of this property by

The exchange rate on the day you make an offer on your property in Portugal will not be the same as the rate you pay when you complete on your purchase, as currency markets move constantly. Any large rate movements may take it beyond your price range as the chart above illustrates the fluctuation and how much extra your property could have cost you.

The best way to avoid this significant risk is to plan your budget and currency strategy with an experienced currency specialist. They have been known to save you up to 4% compared to many high street banks, £4,000 for every £100,000, which soon adds up. They will also keep you up to date on market movements, help you set a rate in advance with a product called a Forward Contract - so you know exactly what you will pay for your property in sterling.

This is why we recommend Smart Currency Exchange Ltd. If exchange rate movements continue to be as unpredictable and as significant as they have been in the past then by not using Smart Currency Exchange Ltd your property could cost you £56,880 more.
