An excellent investment opportunity, with the possibility of capital returns and living in the historic city of Silves. Silves was the first capital of the Algarve, with layers of history revealing occupation since the times of various peoples - Phoenicians, Romans, Muslims, and Christians. Its geographical position was crucial for its development throughout history.
Classified as a strategic point of connection between the coast, the sea, the major maritime and land trade routes, the atmosphere of the municipality square, the medina walls, the cistern, the castle, the cathedral, and the layout of the old town still evoke its rich history.
Even today, its short distance to the beaches of the municipality - Carvoeiro, Benagil - and the beauty of the Algarve coast allows easy access without the summer crowds and their hustle and bustle disturbing daily life. Close to public and private educational establishments - the International School of the Algarve NOBEL and the German school, which can be a reason for families to reside in Silves.
The city of Silves is recognized for the concept of Slow-City (Cittaslow), originating in Italy and now a global contemporary movement that values a way of life promoting well-being, personal, social, community, and environmental development.
Slow Cities present themselves as refuges from the frenzy of modern life, with no more than 50,000 inhabitants, corresponding to a small-sized city, implementing programs aimed at reducing noise in the city, traffic control, increasing pedestrian areas, and supporting local products. Through the combination of the contemporary with its modernity and space with its history and identity, the goal of slow cities is to combine the best of both worlds.
The 'Slow City' category thus becomes a seal of quality denoting commitment and a reference point for residents, tourists, and investors who expect credibility from the city regarding sustainability for both inhabitants and nature.
