About this property
There are farmhouses with character, and then there are farmhouses where someone has clearly had a very good time putting them together. This one, in the rolling inland hills of São Brás de Alportel, lands firmly in the second camp. Traditional Portuguese floor tiles, timber ceilings, stained glass, two fireplaces, shuttered windows, an olive-green kitchen with a central island and decorative tiles: the interior has been assembled with a genuine eye, not a mood board.
The layout is generous and unhurried, with multiple reception rooms, a bar area, two dining spaces, and an office. Above it all sits a rooftop terrace with a private jacuzzi and panoramic countryside views. A south-facing outdoor dining terrace and additional terraces give you plenty of outside options depending on the hour and your mood.
The grounds are mature and fully fenced, planted with carob and fruit trees, and include a workshop, traditional outbuildings, a stone oven, a greenhouse, a well, and a borehole. Practical infrastructure includes air conditioning, solar hot water, double glazing, garage with road access, a carport, and automatic entrance gates. It is self-contained in a way that takes some planning to achieve.
São Brás de Alportel sits in the Algarve hills, away from the coast and the crowds, with an unhurried pace that tends to suit people who came for a holiday and started pricing up permanence. Energy class E: worth factoring into your running-cost projections.
