This is a restored traditional Algarve farmhouse on an elevated 11,000 m² hillside plot in Santa Bárbara de Nexe — expertly renovated and thoughtfully designed, keeping its traditional character while introducing a refined, contemporary way of living. It feels authentic and elegant rather than overdesigned, and effortlessly liveable.
There are 166 m² of beautifully finished living space: open-plan living beneath vaulted, beamed ceilings, a bespoke Silestone kitchen with a central island, and three generous en-suite bedrooms. Every detail has been carefully considered — understated craftsmanship rather than showiness.
Outside, a large south-facing travertine terrace wraps around a plunge pool, with landscaped gardens and a productive kitchen garden beyond. And then there are the views — sweeping across the countryside to the Atlantic, among the finest we've seen in this part of the Algarve, with no neighbours in the frame.
Ducted air conditioning, fibre internet, mains water and sewage, and an energy rating of B-. It is a turnkey property, not a renovation project. Santa Bárbara de Nexe sits in the quiet hills between Faro and Loulé — genuine countryside, with the airport, the coast and the towns all within an easy drive.
