Property summary
Description
This private modern house and separate apartment is located in the rural Alentejo region of Portugal. Situated in an elevated position the property offers spectacular 360 views of the surrounding countryside, which is partially wooded with mature cork and Holm oaks.
The villa-style house was designed with contemporary living in mind: featuring spacious interiors and generous patio areas - complemented by built in seating and hard landscaping, rich with established planting and mature ornamental trees.
This unique architect designed property features a total living area of 250 square meters, which includes a split level house and separate apartment. The design allows the properties to sit naturally within the landscape, with the front facade built to reflect the architectural character of local rural houses. By contrast the contemporary interior features large & welcoming open plan living areas, including high vaulted ceilings in the main house. The apartment has more intimate proportions; however large patio doors provide plenty of light and a welcoming ambience.
Construction of the villa and apartment was completed in 2007 and designed using high quality materials, fixtures and fittings. This includes kitchens and bathrooms fitted with all mod-cons, as well as a salt water filtered swimming pool with retractable cover.
The property is located off the N123 at Chada Nova; the nearest main town of Ourique is just a short drive (10km).
