A family summer home for almost 80 years, the villa welcomes guests with a homely, inviting ambiance. Being a listed historical building and a famous landmark on the Armação de Pêra coastline, the restoration was committed to preserving as many authentic features as possible: a unique wooden floor, antique chandeliers, and a stunning staircase were all carefully recreated. The Moorish influences of the architecture, with geometric designs on the shutters and ceilings, are all beautiful reminders of the region’s rich cultural history.
The property consists of two buildings (gated plot 1,100 sqm). The main house (260 sqm) offers a spacious open kitchen leading into a living and dining area, as well as a generous terracotta terrace that makes the most of the gorgeous seafront setting. The renovated staircase gives access to two en-suite bedrooms (with king-size beds and wardrobes) and a lounge, all with inspiring sea views, making a striking backdrop to every room. A hidden door leads to a rooftop terrace that, many years ago, the owner built to hear the townsfolk sing songs dedicated to local fishermen at the church of “A Nossa Senhora dos Navegantes.”
The wonderful guest house (122 sqm) showcases the charm and character of the main house with a modern twist. Inside, it features a duplex suite with a living room and terrace downstairs and an ensuite bedroom (king-size bed) upstairs, as well as a further self-sufficient studio with a bedroom (queen-size bed), shower room, and balcony. White-washed wooden floors and bright details add to the fresh, airy ambiance and a relaxed style.
The terrace is built into the seawall, giving the impression of a stay upon the ocean itself. The villa's secluded setting and direct access to the beach below allow you to share peaceful moments with friends and family. Among its exclusive facilities, you will also enjoy an outdoor heated pool, sun terrace, spa area with a treatment room and a sauna, an alfresco dining area for 10, and a BBQ.
With beachfront restaurants on your doorstep and the enchanting historic centre of Armação de Pêra just moments away, this amazing property couldn’t be better located to enjoy the best of all worlds. It’s also just a five-minute drive from Vila Vita Parc resort, where, as a guest of the villa, you can make use of the health club, swimming pools, spa, restaurants, bars, and sports facilities.
