The terrace · Colinas da Boavista
A move-in-ready three-bedroom apartment on the quiet residential edge of Tavira — 131 m² of it, plus a private terrace the kitchen opens straight onto. Furnished, lift-served, with its own underground parking. Ready the day you are.
The 37°8 score is the same six checks we run on every property we list. Title, build, space, what you can still do with it, how it treats energy, and whether the asking price actually adds up. Each one out of ten. We publish the full read every time.
The two sixes are honest. Eco sits at six because this is an established building on the grid — comfortable and air-conditioned, but without photovoltaic or a renewable hot-water system. Possibilities sits at six because it is a finished, licensed, fully furnished apartment: there is very little left to add or change — which is precisely why it is move-in ready. What you gain on convenience you give up on project upside.
There are properties you buy to improve. This is not one of them. It is a three-bedroom apartment in Colinas da Boavista, an established, quiet neighbourhood a few minutes from Tavira's historic centre — and its single strongest quality is that you can arrive and simply begin. 131 m² of interior, a private 31 m² terrace, and an underground parking space that comes with it.
The layout is logical. A large living room anchors the apartment and connects through to a fully equipped kitchen with a pantry, which opens straight onto the terrace — so meals, morning coffee and easy entertaining spill outdoors under the awning. The master bedroom is en-suite; the two further double bedrooms share a family bathroom with a shower; a guest WC completes the arrangement. Built-in wardrobes throughout. Air conditioning installed. Lift to the elevated ground floor.
It comes fully furnished and ready for its next owner — no renovation project, no sourcing furniture from scratch, no waiting. For anyone weighing a move to the Eastern Algarve, that removes most of the logistical difficulty from the process in one step.
Colinas da Boavista sits on the quiet residential edge of Tavira — practical, unhurried, well served for everyday life. Schools, supermarkets and cafés are all close. The historic centre — the Roman bridge, the castle hill, the riverfront restaurants and the weekly market — is a short walk or a few minutes by car, and the beaches of the Ria Formosa and the ferry to Ilha de Tavira are reachable without effort. It is a location that works for a primary residence precisely because it is not a tourist address. The town is yours, not borrowed for the season. The apartment is free of encumbrances and the energy certificate is valid to 2034.
