Situated in São Brás de Alportel is this gorgeous 2-bedroom Algarvian farmhouse offered with no chain. The property features gated double parking and is connected to a renovated 1+1 bedroom annexe, perfect for hosting guests or for independent living.

 

 

Upon entering the property, you are greeted with high bamboo ceilings and rustic clay-tiled flooring, dotted with original Portuguese ceramic tiles. Straight ahead is the farmhouse kitchen, with solid wood cabinets, granite countertops and integrated SMEG appliances.

 

To the right, you will find the temperature-controlled underground wine cellar, which can host 500+ bottles and casks. You will also find a double bedroom with en-suite and a family bathroom.

 

To the left, ceramic-tiled steps will lead you to the main reception areas: a spacious living room with its original bread oven connected to an exposed-sandstone walled dining room with fireplace. An ornate staircase leads to a juliette balcony and large upstairs bedroom, complete with 14th century oak four poster bed.

 

 

A bright, separate TV room leads to the newly renovated annexe, ideal for hosting guests or independent living space. The annexe offers a spacious and bright cathedral-ceilinged office. A stairway leads you onto the mezzanine where a luxurious master bedroom with en-suite awaits you, and gives you access to its own rooftop terrace. Downstairs, a smaller second bedroom and bathroom add to the versatility of the space.

 

 

Outside, you'll find the south-facing vine-covered terrace, which overlooks the 11x5m hand-painted saltwater pool, complete with an electric cover. Here, you can also explore the additional courtyards and grounds, comprised of rose garden, shaded courtyards, Moroccan marble fountains, and rare plants.

 

 

Set in the foothills of the Serra do Caldeirão, São Brás de Alportel offers a peaceful, inland escape rich in tradition and natural beauty. Once the centre of Portugal's cork industry, the town still reflects its historic roots through charming architecture, leafy squares, and a strong sense of community.

With its elevated position, São Brás enjoys cooler summer breezes and sweeping countryside views, all just 20 minutes from the coast and Faro Airport. It's a favourite among expats and retirees seeking a more authentic, year-round lifestyle away from the tourist trail but close to everything essential.

 

 

Ideal for those who value space, tranquillity, and a connection to nature, this farmhouse combines rustic charm with excellent value, offering a relaxed pace of life in one of the Algarve's most genuine settings.
