Forever home * WE LOVE ... The views Welcome to your dream home in the heart of Estoi, where modern elegance meets timeless charm. This homely villa is a true gem, nestled in the picturesque Algarve landscape. As you approach the property along the quiet tarmac country road the double electric gates open to reveal the calçada driveway with ample parking spaces and a turning area for multiple vehicles. As you approach the villa, you are surrounded by mature trees and well-manicured gardens, creating a sense of true Algarvean calm. At the top of the driveway is a garage and the entrance to the 2-storey villa. Built in 1992 the villa's architecture blends traditional Algarvean style with contemporary touches, creating a welcoming space that feels both inviting and luxurious. The south-facing, open-plan living room and dining area are spacious and flooded with plenty of natural light thanks to the bi-folding patio doors that lead to the pool area. There is a free-standing log burner and gas-powered radiators so cosy evenings by the fireplace during the cooler winter months are on the cards. Alternatively, for the majority of the year, open up the patio doors and let the gentle Algarve breeze flow through your home. The dining area offers space to entertain family and friends and leads through to the fully fitted kitchen with integrated appliances, granite worktops and a door to the garden and laundry. Completing the ground floor are the 2 guest bedrooms with fitted wardrobes, a modern family bathroom and a storage area hidden under the staircase. Moving up the marble stairs to the first floor, there is the large master bedroom with a refurbished ensuite bathroom. The master bedroom arguably has the best views from the property thanks to its private, south-facing, covered balcony. Enjoy your morning cuppa overlooking the rolling hills of the Algarve, or get ready for an evening out watching the sun go down all from the comfort of your bedroom. Subject to planning permission it may be possible to construct an additional fourth bedroom next to the master ensuite. Outside, the heated pool offers a refreshing escape on hot summer days and has a Santa Catarina tile surround with plenty of space for sun loungers. There is also a poolside shower, BBQ and covered dining area. The beautifully landscaped grounds surround the property and there is irrigation in place to ensure everything stays looking perfect. The gardens are walled & fenced and the small orchard comprises a selection of mature shrubs and citrus trees, including mangos and bananas. A separate laundry and purpose-built dog kennel - dogs are not included - a covered log store and even golf practice driving nets complete the outside area of this villa. With air conditioning, solar panels, a borehole, mains water, video intercom, security alarm and double glazing this property has it all. If you've been searching for a place that combines the best of Algarvean charm with modern comforts, your journey ends here.
