Exclusive property located in the Historical Centre of Silves, T8+1 with private terrace, swimming pool, garage and stunning views over the city and Silves Castle.This property comprises two distinct villas, located one North of each other and joined by a common patio. The two houses are from different periods and architectural interventions, resulting in their own original characteristics, but although they are independent, they constitute a single property.The upper house, Casa Amber, is distributed over 3 floors and has access through the intermediate floor. From here we have direct access to a complete and fully equipped kitchen and to a distribution hall to the lower floor, upper floor, common room, master bedroom and exterior terrace. The common room, equipped with a wood burning stove, gives access to the outdoor terrace, whose Islamic inspiration offers a unique and protected space, facing inwards but cutting through the Moroccan style openings, amazing views to the city and visual communication with the downstairs patio. The master bedroom, en-suite, offers an antechamber with a large wardrobe and access to a generous bathroom with walking shower, a large bath and double sink. The bedroom, facing south, also has a private terrace.On the first floor, and taking advantage of the roof slope, there are two large en-suite bedrooms, equipped with shower and toilet, and two surprising private terraces.The lower floor is accessed through a central staircase located on the entrance floor, where we can find 3 en-suite bedrooms, with built-in wardrobes, bathrooms with walking-shower and direct access to an interior patio through large glass windows. This inner patio has a water fountain of Islamic inspiration and access to the patio. The exterior space, which gives access to a wooden deck, gives access to the garden and swimming pool of the villa below. However, if so desired, another pool or Jacuzzi, is also prepared with technical pre-installation.The villa below, Casa Mimosa, is an old property (pre 1951), whose renovation maintained the architectural originality. The original wooden floor was kept, as well as the moldings, the plaster ceilings, and the wooden shutters. The house is distributed over two floors, with access from the street below. As we enter, we have a wooden staircase that leads to the first floor, a large garage, a bedroom or multipurpose room, a bathroom, and a technical area, which is also prepared to be transformed into a kitchen. From this floor, there are two staircases at opposite ends that give access to the anteroom on the upper floor and to the outside garden.The upper level, which gives access to the common patio, has an en-suite bedroom, equipped with a bath, two other bedrooms with shared bathroom and double access, a common living room and an equipped kitchen. On this level, we also access a versatile winter greenhouse with sliding glass doors that open directly to the outdoor swimming pool. From the garden and the swimming pool, there are scenic views to Silves Castle.In terms of equipment, both houses have heating and cooling system, through heat pump, solar panels for the sanitary water and double-glazed windows.Casa Amber also has underfloor heating in the intermediate level and air conditioning in the remaining rooms.Come and discover this fantastic property in the centre of the historic town of Silves, whose originality offers great investment potential, either for a B&B unit or rental together with your house.
