The house boasts five generous bedrooms, each with its own private bathroom. Two of the bedrooms open directly onto the terraces and swimming pool area, enhancing the indoor-outdoor living experience.
There is lovely pool, measuring 16 by 3 metres with terraces.
It is important to emphasise that significant measures have been taken to insulate the house beneath the flooring on the ground floor, the roof, as well as double insulation of the interior and exterior walls. These features make the house highly efficient and energy-neutral, ensuring it remains warm in winter and cool in summer.
Innovative for the Algarve, this house employs timber frame construction, a method that has stood the test of time in the Scandinavian countries, Germany, Austria and Belgium. This technique uses a sturdy timber framework to support the structure, ensuring stability while allowing for flexibility in design and aesthetic appeal. Unlike traditional stick-built homes that rely heavily on wood framing throughout, timber frame houses offer distinct spaces with large, open areas. The advantages of timber frame construction are numerous, encompassing sustainability, energy efficiency, aesthetic charm, design versatility, and impressive strength and durability.
Private health services such as Clanica Particular do Algarve in Gambelas are about 25 minutes away. About 20 minutes from Faro International Airport and 25 minutes to the beaches.

Buying a Property in Portugal
1. Signing a Letter of Intent
On finding a property you wish to purchase, your agent will draw up a 'Letter of Intent, this will be signed by both parties, vendor and buyer. Copies of this will be given to the legal representatives of both parties and will be used in preparing the Promissory Contract. Included in this letter will be the price, what is included in the sale, furnishings etc. and any conditions of the sale plus the dates for both exchange and completion.
2. Exchange of Promissary Contract (Contrato Promessa de Compra e Venda)
The buyers lawyers are responsible for drawing up the promissory contract (Contrato Promessa de Compra e Venda) and as part of the process they will have carried out the legal searches and made sure that there are no charges, e.g. utilities, property tax etc. against the property. The contract will contain details of both parties and include clear title of ownership, when payments are due to be made, the completion date and an inventory, if required. The Promissory Contract is legally binding and will generally be signed by both parties and witnessed by a notary/lawyer. The contract will include penalty clauses in case either party does not fulfill the terms of the contract. A 10%, non-refundable deposit is required at this point, this will be paid to the vendor, through the lawyer's client account. Once the contract has been signed, if the vendor pulls out of the contract, they will be obliged to pay back double the deposit to the purchaser. If the purchaser pulls out, they will lose their deposit.
3. On Completion
The amount of time between signing the Promissary Contract and Completion will vary and will have been agreed in the contract. Before Completion your lawyer will need to arrange with a fiscal representative for you to obtain a Portuguese Fiscal Number. The official Deed of Transfer of ownership (the Escritura) will be signed by you (or someone representing you with your Power of Attorney), this is signed at the Notary and they will retain the document. The Deed will be read aloud by the Notary before all participants sign it. Your lawyer will need to check to ensure that you understand what is being said if you do not understand Portugese. The Escritura, once it has been signed, will officially give you ownership of the property, but will still need to be registered in your name on the Land Registry (Registo Predial) by your lawyer. Your lawyer should obtain a copy of this for your records. Once you have completed, the new utility contracts can be transferred into your name by your lawyer.
