Nestled close to the sea, you’ll find this beautifully contemporary home on the Albufeira coastline. With a striking architectural design to the exterior, it will take your breath away before you even step inside. The outdoor space is just beautiful – picture yourself enjoying the ocean views and landscaped gardens, relaxing by your private pool with the sound of the sea in the air and a good book to discover. We think it’s a pretty perfect way to while away a few hours.

As you step inside, the natural light will follow you in and glow from the crisp white walls to the sparkling tiles, with the uplight ceiling design a stand-out, striking feature. The open-plan spaces allow for sociable settings with loved ones in a home that oozes sophistication. The stunning interiors carry through to the sleeping areas, where you’ll be met with warm comfort. Rinse the day away under your rainfall shower and climb into bed for a restful night’s sleep.

Ideally located, you’ll have far more than just your games room to keep you occupied. Stroll to the local restaurants for a spot of lunch before relaxing the afternoon away on the warm Portuguese sand. The picturesque views will draw you in until sunset, when a charming evening over a few drinks may be next on the list. All within walking distance of your stunning villa which will quickly become your home-away-from-home.
