Modern Contemporary Designed Luxury Villa in High Class Quiet Residential Area

This villa is ideally suited to couples or a small family group. A cot & high-chair can be provided if a baby is included in the group. Two bedrooms have Super King size beds. The third bedroom has twin beds. Two bedrooms have en suite facilities with fitted wardrobes and air conditioning. A bathroom / shower room is nexr to the third bedroom.

When staying anywhere on holiday the number one priority is location. Absolutely vital that the location is safe, located in a quality residential area and is well served by good restaurants with no rowdy bars or subject to groups of drunken holidaymakers or locals.

This villa is a high quality 3 bedroom semi-detached villa and is a truly outstanding contemporary modern style property. Designed by a well known Portuguese architect and built by an equally well known Algarvian builder.

Located in a beautiful, peaceful and secluded setting with no road noise. Arguably the finest location in the Algarve being only 5 minutes walk from the new exclusive W Residences (Marriot Group). This is a new 7 star Hotel / Resort, which also has apartments costing up to £2.9M. Chosen by Marriot for their only 7 star hotel in Portugal is a good indicator of the quality and standard of the nearby location.

Also, only 5 minutes walk to Villa Serena, owned by the tennis player Serena Williams; Serena would not buy here unless it was in a top quality area. There are also a number of other "celebrities", who own property in the area.

The villa affords absolute privacy being situated well away from the noisy tourist areas yet only a few minutes drive to some of the gorgeous beaches close to Albufeira. Several beaches are walkable being less than 1 mile away. Only 5 minutes drive to the Old Town or the New Town (The "Strip" as it is sometime known). It is only 5 minutes drive to Gale beach, another gorgeous sandy beach that goes on for miles. 2 miles from the Albufeira Marina (€4 in an UBER), or a few minutes drive to loads of bars & restaurants.

There are numerous supermarkets within 5 minutes drive and several within walking distance. Loads of restaurants (at least 20 top quality restaurants) and bars walkable within 5 to 15 minutes of the villa, but not close enough for noise to be a concern.

There is easy access to the A22 motorway and the EN125; driving time to Faro airport is 35 minutes to 40 minutes with Vilamoura only 25 minutes drive away.

The villa is in a gated "village", entry by electronic gates, of only 6 villas but all with their own private gardens and large private pool, so no sharing with other people. In keeping with the surroundings, the garden is large, much of it is in grass so safe for children to play, is well stocked with shrubs, palm trees and flowers, which border the private pool adjacent to the terrace.

On the pool terrace there is a barbecue, dining area, and a lovely seating area with high quality garden sofa & chairs.

In terms of accommodation, the villa is on 2 floors. The lounge / dining room, kitchen, twin bedroom and family bathroom / with shower, are on the ground floor with the double bedrooms on the upper level. The fully fitted kitchen has an oven, microwave, fridge freezer, hob and dishwasher. There is a washing machine located in a separate utility cupboard, together with an iron & ironing board.

Both upstairs bedrooms are the same size, one has a super-king bed, the other twin beds, both with full en-suite facilities with a large walk in shower, large fitted wardrobes and air conditioning. One of the bedrooms has direct access to the large first floor terrace. The second bedroom has it's own balcony, with sitting area. The third bedroom is made up as a twin and located on the ground floor, and next door to the bath / shower room.

The large first floor terrace, mentioned above, is secluded and private, with fabulous views, and is in addition to the large pool terrace.

The property is fully double glazed, has an alarm system, Smart TV with Netflix, Sky (Sky & BT Sports) by internet streaming, fully air-conditioned, Wifi fibre internet (over 200mbs), BBQ, automatic garden irrigation system, pool lights and garden lighting. There is a parking area and entry is by electronic gates.

Many golf courses can be accessed easily. The Vilamoura courses are accessed in 25 minutes and Salgados within 5 minutes. Salgados is only 1.5 miles away by foot and great to walk round even if not a golfer as it borders a nature reserve, several lagoons with a variety of birdlife.

The local villa manager can organise golf on your behalf but if you are a golfer I would imagine you have already conducted a fair amount of research. However, if you need help please just ask.

Unlike many other owners, we employ the services of a locally based villa manager and you can rely on them to assist if any problems arise. Rogerio and Nuno Alexandre own the real estate agent and villa management company Albuera Domus, and have an office in Albufeira. Rogerio and Nuno are available 24/7 to handle any emergencies and so give you comfort that you will be well looked after and given support if needed. They will personally meet & greet you at the villa regardless of arrival time, show you around and make certain you have everything you need.

The villa was built in 2009 but has just undergone some upgrade, with decoration inside & out.

For beach lovers, it's only a 15 to 20 minute walk to the beautiful secluded Castelo beach, Evaristo beach or Laurenco beach. Gale, another fabulous sandy beach with miles of gorgeous sand, is only a 5 minute drive and walkable being just over 1.2 miles. Most of the beaches have a bar & restaurant with Gale beach having 3 top quality restaurants and snack bars and there are several beach bars dotted along the beach.

The beach and golf course of Salgados is only 5 minutes drive, not to mention all the other top golf courses available in the area, accessible by a short drive.
The Apolonia super market is only 15 minutes minutes walk. Also a short drive to a Spar and Coviran (Oceana) supermarket, 5 minutes drive to Aldi and 12 minutes drive to the Algarve Shopping Centre, where the vast Continente supermarket can be found.

The location is absolutely ideal for those looking for peace and quiet with lovely restaurants a short walk away, but close enough to the more busy areas of Albufeira Old & New Town.

You will not be disappointed choosing this villa for your holiday, both from the villa itself and the fabulous location.

About the Agent:-

My name is Ken Paterson married to Yvonne. I worked in financial services as the Compliance & Risk Director for a major national Independent Financial Adviser, but retired in December 2019. Yvonne was an office manager with an estate agent, previously with a major high street bank and IBM and self employed as a bridal seamstress but now also retired.

We bought our first apartment at Villa Rosal in Sao Raphael near Albufeira 20 years ago. We rented it out but sold after 3 years as it did not give us the peace and quiet we wanted for our own holiday.

We bought a new villa in 2009 near Ferreiras but moved on again in 2020 to our current villa, which is in the same small development as this villa. We live here for 9 to 10 months of the year, so we can vouch for the quality of this villa and the location.

If like us you want peace and quiet but close to everything then this is it. The area has been chosen by a number of "famous" people with Serena Williams having a villa 5 minutes from us, along with several retired Portuguese footballers, and not to mention Bonnie Tyler.
