With many mature trees and sitting in the hills just north of the Roman town of Tavira, set on a very large plot of land, this property offers a wonderfully peaceful environment to live in, yet it is close to both the city and the coast. The main house is an octagonal shape set on 2 floors with two adjacent ground level buildings East and West (a dance studio and an atelier for Art). The ground floor has an open plan lounge with small kitchen on the side and additional office space; a decorative iron spiral staircase leads to the first floor that affords great views in all directions and feels light and open. It comprises an integrated bath, separate shower, sleeping area and a large living space. At the back of the property is an attractive pond with a walkway above it, nicely landscaped into the natural rock leading to the upper levels of the property. There is also lots of artwork scattered around the property. In the grounds there are 4 further self-contained properties; Casa das Rochas: at the top of the plot of land, this features a kitchen and bedroom which opens onto a lounge and very attractive bathroom with an indoor and outdoor water feature. The Pavilhão; has its own pond and bedroom, kitchenette and bathroom. The Atelier: open plan and self-contained with its little lake in front and leading onto a small outdoor amphitheatre. The Casa do Teatro which is also self-contained but not registered as a living unit. The main house and the 4 outbuildings have all been designed by the current owner who is an artist. They are all in different styles, and all of them have been lovingly worked on by the owner and have their own charm and individuality. There is also a swimming pool in the grounds with a spacious decking area surrounded by tropical plants which is a calm, private area. This property offers the new owners a chance to live in a wonderfully peaceful area or perhaps to set up a business. There is also scope to host many leisure activities such as music concerts, yoga and dance. *The feature(s)/equipment(s) mentioned in this description are subject to verification and agreement between the vendors and buyers.
