A three-bedroom villa in Alcaria Covo, Estoi, where the elevated position does much of the hard work: uninterrupted countryside, views towards Faro and the coast, and excellent privacy. The house is dated and ready for updating, but the 4,960m2 plot, mature gardens and 10m x 5m pool give a new owner a strong foundation for creating a very special Algarve home.
Built in 1988, the villa is arranged mainly on one level with additional lower-level areas serving the pool and gardens. The main house provides three bedrooms and three bathrooms, living and dining spaces, a traditional fitted kitchen and an enclosed covered terrace currently used as a games room. Two gated entrances provide flexible access to the fully walled and fenced property.
 / 
The entrance opens into a reception or office area with a guest cloakroom. An archway leads to the lounge and dining room, with a log-burning fireplace and south-facing windows overlooking the terraces. The enclosed covered terrace is currently used as a games room and opens to a breakfast terrace. The kitchen is traditionally fitted. Two bedrooms share a family bathroom, while the principal bedroom has fitted wardrobes and an en-suite shower room.
 / 
The private plot is fully walled and fenced, with two gated entrances, mature palms and established planting. A sweeping calcada driveway leads to generous covered parking. The 10m x 5m south-facing pool has broad sun terraces and an outdoor kitchen/BBQ area. Automatic irrigation is supplied by the borehole, while the house uses mains water. A 30,000-litre cistern provides additional water storage.
Alcaria Covo is an elevated countryside location near Estoi with open views stretching towards Faro and the coastline. Local amenities are within easy reach, with shopping approximately fifteen minutes away. Faro Airport and the nearest beaches are both around twenty minutes by car, giving the property a good balance of privacy and accessibility.
 / 
This property is best suited to a buyer who values location and is prepared to modernise the house. The mainly single-level accommodation, established plot, pool and exceptional outlook provide a strong base for renovation. It could work well as a permanent home, retirement property or substantial second home for someone wanting privacy and outdoor living rather than a finished contemporary villa.
