This lovely villa is situated in the exclusive Praia Verde neighborhood, just 5 minutes' walk from the beach.The entrance allows us to enter the grand hall, where a stunning staircase leads to the first floor. Here, there are two ensuite bedrooms, each with a private balcony measuring 7 square meters, and a shared balcony measuring 23 square meters, from which one can view the surrounding landscape. Each bedroom is located on either side of the staircase, and the hallway is spacious and bright. The roof terrace, which has a beautiful sea view, is also accessible from this corridor.The elegant living and dining room with fireplace, the communal bathroom, and a sizable kitchen are all located on the ground floor. We have access to the sunny terrace from the living room, which is great for enjoying the afternoons in both winter and summer! Two bedrooms and one full bathroom are located in a hallway on the left side of the staircase.A generous social area of 180 m2 has been created in the basement, including a living room with a bar and direct access to pool, a games room, a bathroom with a dressing room, and one ensuite bedroom with access to the garden!The garden features the typical Praia Verde pine trees, a sizable heated swimming pool, a jacuzzi, minigolf, and cosy gardens, all of which are great for taking in the area's famously tranquil atmosphere.There is also a garage with space for one car.Do not hesitate to get in touch with us if you want more details or to arrange a visit! Tavira has a beautiful, historic centre with wide cobbled avenues, shady plazas, a maze of narrow streets with lots of little boutique shops, family run restaurants and of course plenty of bars where you can enjoy an alfresco drink. It has a wonderfully relaxed and friendly feel and huge charm and character.Tavira has a long history and there is a strong Moorish influence on the town's architecture, including its castle, two mosques and several palaces.In terms of property expect private villas with large plots. If you are looking for a property where you can walk to the shops or have lots of amenities on your doorstep then Tavira probably isnt the place for you, you will need around a 5-10 minute drive to get to local shops, cafes etc. The river Gilao runs through the centre of town and sets the pace of the area - no-one is in a hurry, it feels as though you are going back 20 years when there was enough time to get everything done and still have chance to sit back and relax. There is a fishing quay on the river and a large market offering a huge range of local fruit, vegetables and fish.The only drawback to Tavira? There is no beach on the mainland. However Tavira is fringed by a series of islands just offshore with some of the best beaches in Europe - pristine blue water and soft white sand. There are ferries which run from the town to these beautiful island getaways.Inland there are several golf courses including the famous Monte Rei course, but Tavira is also ideal for many other leisure activities - horse riding, walking, cycling, kite surfing, paddle boarding and kayaking.
