Lovely residence with guest house near..

Located in Monte Nova da Portel, just outside of Sao Bartolomeu de Messines heading towards Alte you will find this characteristic Portuguese villa. Within the total plot size of 17,000 m2 you find the main villa with its own swimming pool. This main villa makes an ideal family home however, as well as this property, you also have a beautiful second property that has been built to be used as a guest house as well. The guest house has its own pool and is within the boundries of the same plot as the main house. Both villas nestle within the established gardens, ideal for people who want to get away from the hustle and bustle of the coast and relax within the Algarvean countryside. These gardens lead onto gently sloping terraced land that has olive, almond, fig as well as many other fruit trees growing there. This land could be used for many different purposes - you could continue to grow the fruit trees, start your own vineyard, keep horses, the possibilities are endless. Both the main villa and guest house have been built so that they merge into the surrounding landscape and both have spectacular views. The villa and guest house make great all year round homes, but they also offer the potential for fantastic holiday or long term rental opportunities, something that the current owners do and have found it to be a very worthwhile endeavour. There is also planning permission to build two more houses within the plot so if the buyer decides to expand the rental side of things everything is ready to go. The property is only a half hour drive to Faro airport, the nearest beach is around 20 minutes away, as is the beautiful town of Alte with its amazing waterfalls, there is a traditional Portuguese cafe within walking distance and all other amenities are within a short drive to the bustling town of Messines.
