Two options are available for you here, you could renovate this old Quinta or you could design and build your dream home from scratch with a project presented to the local council of Faro.
Location: Countryside location, very private with some neighbours of mixed nationalities in the vicinity, all at a fair distance. Access off a local tarmac road with 80 meters of dirt track in good condition to the property. Gently sloping plot of land with many Carob and Olive trees, some arable, but mostly wild land with some large rocks. Estoi at 5 min drive has some mini-markets and good eateries, both São Bras de Alportel & Faro city with all amenities are at 15 min drive.
Property description: Ruined Farmhouse with a registered covered area of 86m² (in reality more like ca. 130m²) sitting in 28.160m² of land with good country and a small sea view. Farmhouse built early 1900 in traditional style with natural stone walls of 50cm thick, pole & cane roofs with Roman roof tiles over part of the Quinta and indoor stairs to the roof terrace with even better views. A large part of this Quinta could be restored, most of the old stone walls are well preserved, nice challenge for a DIY minded person. Perfect opportunity to build a zero Energy house to your own liking.
Accommodation: At present there are various rooms that have a roof. The stables had a hay loft and a roof, but no longer. There is an old bread oven and some pig sties of ca. 25m².
