Features
A Very Pretty cottage in the nature tourism village of Santa Clara-a-Velha which is in Alentejo but close to the Algarve. the beaches are apx. 30-40 mins away on quiet country roads, the lake for fishing, swimming, boating etc. is just a few minutes away, The river for walks & bird/animal spotting is on the door step (Otters, Mongoose,Storks, Golden oriel, Bonellis eagle, Azure Magpie, etc. etc.
Wonderful place for painters & Photographers.
The cottage has two bedrooms at the moment but would probably be best remodelled into a one bedroomed property. The roof needs replacing & this would give the oportunity of putting on a new storey or terrace, as the house next door has done this recently ( thus gaining both space & Value on the property-)
I am selling this cottage as I will be going to Australia to my son & Grand daughter. I have owned this cottage for apx. 7 years. it has electric, mains water & sewage, Internet access is sure & fast. There are lovely food shops, restaurants, cafes, a petrol station. bank machine, two taxis, buses & the Algarve-Lisbon railway 2kms away. Access to both Faro Airport & lisbon is very fast & easy either by train or car. The Monchique mountains with spas etc are just a few kms to the south. Casa Mira is a typical Alentejo cottage in a uniquely beautiful & practical location- a wonderful opportunity for a kind, open hearted person to enjoy living in one of the friendliest & prettiest villages in Portugal.
The person or people who buy this property will be buying a lifestyle of peace & security-- stepping back in time to a place where everyone has time to chat & take an interest in each others lives,
I am selling this property either alone or together with the larger property called A-Chamine which is across the cobbled road from Casa Mira & is presently run as a B&B. But has been run as a restaurant-Cafe-bar- for many years.
Plot Size: 54.00m²

Santa Clara-a-Velha is located inbetween the monchique mountains the Santa Clara Lake & the west coast beaches of southern Portugal. The climate is Hot & Sunny in the summer with colder nights in the winter though the days are usually extremly sunny & warm. The rains usually only fall in the winter months though for the last couple of years we have had some welcome light rain apx. once a month throughout the summer ( looks like Global warming is doing Portugal some favours!) This region is amongst the most beautiful in Portugal so has a 'Pousada' overlooking the lake (State Built Hotel- which were built in the most spectacular sites of the country).
