Algarve Property of the Week - A peaceful oasis of handsome townhouses.... On the outskirts of Vilamoura, within walking distance of the Marina, golf courses, and all amenities, is this stunning cluster of 16 identical townhouses, in the final phases of completion.

 

 

Situated in the midst of beautifully manicured gardens, the houses are like a little ray of sunshine amongst cool pine-trees and cobblestone paths.

Spread over three floors, only first-rate materials have been used in this development's construction.

Each house has private parking, in the form of a drive and a garage, though the garage, part of the basement, offers the flexibility to be extended, at an additional cost, or be converted into an extra, spacious, living area.

The entrance door opens into a hallway, left of which are a flight of stairs climbing to the first floor, and descending to the basement.

First right is a sizeable kitchen, fully equipped with top-of-the-range appliances, a fitted kitchen with modern, intelligent storage systems, styled with beige mottled granite-effect worktops and light coloured wood fronts.

Second right is a good size bathroom, fully fitted and stylishly finished (as are all bathrooms).

In front, from the hall is a large dining/living area that opens onto a private patio overlooking the communal pool and beautiful gardens.

On the first floor we find two bedrooms, both of good proportions, comprising fitted wardrobes and charming, venation-style balconies. They share a large family bathroom, complete with a bathtub and hydro-massage shower unit.

From the landing there is an other door that opens onto a secluded sun terrace.

Down from the hall and to the basement we find the garage, which could easily be converted into an additional living area, such as a games room, home cinema, etc… Here there is a third bathroom, and to the rear of the basement, another room that could become a large homestudy or office, a third bedroom, or an additional dining room, as it has patio doors that open onto yet another sunken patio complete with brick barbeque and stirs to the pool and gardens.

Of a freeform design, the pool is undoubtedly the centrepiece of the communal area. It has three rock-features, from which water flows into the pool.

The gardens are delightful, dotted with pine and palmtrees, manicured lawns, quaint cobblestone paths and wrought-iron street lamps.

Two communal changingrooms serve the pool, and a children's play area is soon to be installed.

All houses have solar-powered central heating, a central vacuum system, and are pre installed for air-conditioning.

Windows have electric shutters, mosquito nets and decorative wrought iron bars.

Ample solid stone has been used in this development, to ensure that with the passing of time the houses stand firm, deterring cracks and damp.

To be sold unfurnished, the houses are priced at €395,000,00. For more information, contact Paulo at Kasas & Kasas – Algarve Property Central on: (+351) 919 521 737
