Rare opportunity to acquire a stylishly renovated 6 bedroom villa with pool and garden, enjoying far reaching countryside views from its roof terrace, located in the pretty village of Amorosa and just 5 minutes from the market town of Sao Bartolomeu de Messine.

This beautiful property has all the modern conveniences whilst retaining many charming features of a bygone age. A property of distinction that would serve as a large family home, a business opportunity for rural tourism or even a retreat.

Situated less than 15 minutes from the former Algarve capital of Silves, this unique cluster of accommodations have been wonderfuly restored with style and great attention to detail. It is literally a work of art.

On entering one is immediately struck by the vintage tiles in the hallway and original internal doors which have now been complimented with brand new brushed aluminium doors and windows throughout.

There are two en-suite bedrooms one of them having a roll top bath as a centrepiece. The beds, like all the furniture, are brand new and look well-proportioned in the room and even the linen has been embroidered with the original name of the property adding a classical touch. A guest WC is conveniently located in the hall.

The kitchen is a cooks dream with plenty of workspace and fully equipped. There is a door that leads to a section of the garden where an old barrel recovered from the outbuilding acts as a drink and snack table shaded by the orange trees. This part of the house has been opened up to create an open-plan living space that is flooded with natural light and that has defined living and dining areas. The double doors alongside the dining room give access to a covered terrace and to the rest of the accommodation.

There are stairs that lead to a large roof terrace with views of the surrounding countryside, a great spot for star gazing. Below a technical room that houses the solar hot water tank and doubles up as a utility room with ample storage for laundry and cleaning products. There is a WC for general outside use.

A duplex apartment with a connecting door to a bedroom suite with an upper level with another bedroom and bathroom and downstairs it has a built-in kitchen with living room and private sun terrace. The quality and execution of finish is continued through these guest accommodations with designer touches here and there.

A barn that once housed the tractor and is currently set up as a games room offers an opportunity to add to the outside space, such as an outside living room or cinema room.

There is a great swimming pool converted from the water tank that has generous areas for sun-bathing and is closed off with a gate for safety. An impressive commissioned mural adorns the wall inspiring one to play and have fun.

The property is fully enclosed and has traditional cobblestones that have been laid to connect all external areas. A large table sits right in the middle of the courtyard, shaded by a sturdy pergola and served by the outside kitchen and barbecue.

These kinds of property, lovingly restored and with understated taste, don't come along very often.

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.
