Algarve, Moncarapacho, Portugal

9-bedroom estate, with 1.9 hectares, bounded by a stream, within the urban area of the village of Moncarapacho, in Algarve, a village protected from urban pressure between the sea and the Algarve mountains, 6 km from Fuseta and Ria Formosa, and 3.7 km from Via do Infante. The perfect compromise between the countryside and the best-preserved beaches of the Algarve, while being in a village with privacy and intimacy, with walking access to all necessary commerce and services.

The main house, dating back to the late 19th century, was completely rebuilt between 2003 and 2007, maintaining its original design and equipped with all modern amenities, including a solar panel for water heating and air conditioning in all rooms. On the ground floor, with 210 sqm (147.4 sqm usable), there is a large kitchen with pantry and laundry areas, a 90 sqm usable living room with fireplace, two entrances with entrance halls, a cloakroom area, and a guest bathroom. The first floor, with 140 sqm (122.50 sqm usable), has three bathrooms, six bedrooms (one en-suite), plus a large 70 sqm terrace.

The second house, with 170 sqm usable, is completely independent with a living room/kitchenette, three bedrooms, a bathroom, a 77 sqm lounge, and a cellar, distant enough from the main house to ensure privacy. It has been used for tourist accommodation (AL) with a license granted. Next to the house, there is a wood storage area.

The large hall, due to its size and high ceilings, lends itself to various uses such as a games room, cinema room, studio, workshop, among others.

The property features a large lawn area and patio, a wood-fired oven, a covered dining area for outdoor meals, a Mediterranean garden in front of the houses, two storage rooms with 22 sqm usable, and a saltwater swimming pool. There is also a tennis court (official size) and a building for support facilities. An old restored well and two wells in the surrounding urban area.

The property has three entrances. An original pedestrian access gate attached to the main house, a gated entrance for cars with space for four open parking spots surrounded by the garden, and an area that can accommodate eight more vehicles. There is also an original gate at the opposite end of the house for access to agricultural machinery.

The agricultural land has a borehole that supplies water to the swimming pool as well as the irrigation system for trees and vegetables. Fruit trees predominantly include citrus (oranges, tangerines, clementines, and lemons), as well as plum trees, pear trees, peach trees, custard apple trees, banana trees, loquat trees, fig trees, pomegranate trees, mulberry trees, and persimmon trees. Almond trees, walnut trees, olive trees, and carob trees provide stable income. There is also a vegetable garden with local produce.

There are large storage areas to support agricultural activities and a large tank at the opposite end of the house.
