This modern traditional style family villa lies in the heart of the prestigious and famous golf resort of Parque da Floresta in a beautiful part of the western Algarve. Owners enjoy discounts on golf and the use of the health spa, tennis and bowls facilities. Positioned on an elevated plot, looking over the undulating hills of the western Algarve and across to the sea, this well maintained villa has the potential for an excellent rental income or permanent residence.

However if a rental income is required, a secure golf course with tennis courts and a spa has enormous attraction for both golfers and families looking to spend their summer holidays in the Algarve. The property has double glazing with slatted aluminium shutters and air conditioning throughout. The pool is heated by a heat exchange pump that is extremely efficient to run. The garden is easy to maintain and is the first feature of note when arriving at the property. A gentle incline up the traditional Portuguese calcada drive to the parking area is bordered with well manicured lawns that lead to the heated pool area and entrance way. A covered glazed porch leads through to the front door that opens to the tiled stairwell with wooden trim. This upside down layout of this villa allows for far-reaching countryside and sea views from the main living room upstairs, whilst three of the four bedrooms remain on the ground floor. A short passageway leads past a mirrored storage cupboard with built-in safe, to the cluster of generously sized en-suite double bedrooms. All three rooms have the advantage of built in wardrobes, air-conditioning and patio doors stepping straight out onto the pool terrace. Two of the en-suite bathrooms have shower units and the third has a bath with built-in shower. All benefit from attractive tiling, a heated towel rail, basin unit and toilet. A handy, lockable store cupboard is built under the stairs and is spacious enough for golf clubs and personal items that can be kept secure if renting out through the summer months. At the top of the stairs, the hub of the home opens out to the living and dining area with an abundance of light penetrating through the many surrounding windows. This natural sunlight filters through to the good sized, practical kitchen via an open doorway and an additional arch shaped serving hatch. The kitchen is fully equipped with wooden white coloured units, a gas hob, electric oven, washing machine, integrated fridge freezer and dishwasher. A naturally lit guest cloakroom is conveniently situated adjacent to the kitchen which also houses the tumble dryer.
