luxury farmhouses with pool for sale São Roque, Portugal

With approximately 1,567 inhabitants and an area of 22.60 square kilometers, this parish owes its name to a relative concentration of beech trees that once existed there. The parish of Faial was established on February 20, 1550, by royal decree. Some historians argue that, along with the parish of São Jorge, this might have been one of the first parishes to be settled on the north coast of the Island of Madeira. Located in this parish is this magnificent small farm with a breathtaking view of the sea and the lush and majestic mountains of the north coast of the island. On sunny days, one can even glimpse the distant island of Porto Santo. This property has seven bedrooms and five bathrooms, an old kitchen, a wine press, two storage annexes, a garage that has been converted into a cinema room, a magnificent swimming pool, a barbecue, grassy garden areas, and lands with vineyards, banana plants, and fruit trees. Outside, there's an entrance with the capacity to accommodate several cars. The entire property offers a phenomenal view of the sea and the mountains, in addition to providing immense privacy. It's an excellent investment for establishing a country house for rural tourism, or even for those looking to live in a very quiet, silent, private, and green area, while still having all the services and commerce available in the center of the Faial parish.
