Indoors
The property comprises a main house and a small guest house called the "White House" (situated in front of the property).
The renovation of the villa was committed to retain as many of the original elements as possible : a unique wooden floor, antique chandeliers, and a spectacular staircase were all lovingly recreated. The Moroccan influences of the architecture, with geometric designs on the shutters and ceilings, are also elegant reminders of the region’s rich cultural history.
In the Main House, there is a large open kitchen, a living and dining area with a large terracotta terrace and spectacular seafront setting. On the ceilings, sculpted grape vines are a reminder of those that once thrived in front of the villa itself. The charming staircase leads to two ensuite bedrooms and a living room where a terrace makes the most of the breath-taking views. A secret door leads to a further rooftop terrace that, many years ago, the owner built to hear the townsfolk sing songs dedicated to local fisherman at the church of “A Nossa Senhora dos Navegantes.”
The Annex is a small guest house situated in front of the property. It reimagines some of the distinctive character of the main house in a more contemporary aesthetic. This building offers a duplex suite with living room and terrace downstairs, and an ensuite bedroom upstairs, as well as a further self-contained studio with bedroom, shower room and balcony. The annex is perfect for younger members of a family looking for their own space.
The villa also features a wine fridge.
Outdoors
