Set in the peaceful countryside of Mealhas, just 10 minutes from Sao Bras de Alportel, this detached 2 bedroom rustic cottage offers privacy, traditional character and excellent potential. Sitting on a generous 1,380m2 plot with mature trees, natural rock formations and a private swimming pool, the property has a calm rural feel while remaining close to local amenities.
The property would benefit from updating and modernisation, but this is reflected in the asking price. With some investment and care, it could become a beautiful private countryside home, an easy to maintain retirement property or a charming Algarve rental investment.
The cottage is arranged on one level and includes a fitted kitchen with dining space, integrated appliances, gas hob, extractor, oven and dishwasher. An archway leads through to the open plan lounge and dining area, which has air conditioning, a natural log burner and French doors opening directly onto the terrace and barbecue area.
An inner hallway leads to two double bedrooms, both with air conditioning, and a large family shower room. The bathroom is a good size and may offer scope for reconfiguration, depending on the buyers requirements.
 
The outside space is one of the strongest features of this property. The mature garden includes established trees, natural rock formations, pool terracing and a barbecue area, creating a lovely sense of tranquillity and privacy.
The garden is partly walled and partly open to the surrounding countryside, giving the next owner the opportunity to further enclose or landscape the plot. There is also private parking and a large garage/store room accessed from the driveway.
The property benefits from mains water, septic sewage, an electric hot water system, double glazing, internal wooden shutters, air conditioning and a log burner.
