Details

Impressive modern and minimalistic 4 bedroom villa with pool and garden, enjoying panoramic countryside views from its peaceful location near the beach and all amenities in Santa Barbara de Nexe.

Once an old ruin at the end of a dirt road, this amazing property is completely encompassed by nature, nestled among hundreds of olive, almond and cork trees.

The modern architecture is dominated by strong lines, white walls and concrete, creating a bold effect in the natural environment.

The construction opens itself to its surroundings through the use of large windows and doors, rooftop terraces, multiple patios and a large courtyard that contains a semi-enclosed pool.

Local materials were sourced for the handmade doors, windows and shutters, in addition to the use of natural stone for the pool, kitchen counters, sinks and benches.

The 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms are modern and minimal yet refined in design and decor.

The white walls and concrete floors create a neutral palette, with the addition of wood and textiles to add warmth. The kitchen features a large cooking island, while the outdoor patio space is strategically placed nearby for enjoying meals outside.

The relaxing sound of water from the fountain makes it the perfect place to relax, read a book or just enjoy the sun.

On the upper level, the living and dining room connects with the back garden and a huge rooftop terrace with stunning views.

A truly unique property amidst the Algarvian hills. Located close to Santa Barbara de Nexe with an array of amenities and services such as supermarkets, cafes, pastry shops, markets and schools.
The beaches and Faro airport are within 20 minutes drive and the centre of Loule is 10 minutes away.

Portugal Property Buying Guide

1. Signing a Letter of Intent

On finding a property you wish to purchase, your agent will draw up a 'Letter of Intent, this will be signed by both parties, vendor and buyer. Copies of this will be given to the legal representatives of both parties and will be used in preparing the Promissory Contract. Included in this letter will be the price, what is included in the sale, furnishings etc. and any conditions of the sale plus the dates for both exchange and completion.

2. Exchange of Promissary Contract (Contrato Promessa de Compra e Venda)

The buyers lawyers are responsible for drawing up the promissory contract (Contrato Promessa de Compra e Venda) and as part of the process they will have carried out the legal searches and made sure that there are no charges, e.g. utilities, property tax etc. against the property. The contract will contain details of both parties and include clear title of ownership, when payments are due to be made, the completion date and an inventory, if required. The Promissory Contract is legally binding and will generally be signed by both parties and witnessed by a notary/lawyer. The contract will include penalty clauses in case either party does not fulfill the terms of the contract. A 10%, non-refundable deposit is required at this point, this will be paid to the vendor, through the lawyer's client account. Once the contract has been signed, if the vendor pulls out of the contract, they will be obliged to pay back double the deposit to the purchaser. If the purchaser pulls out, they will lose their deposit.

3. On Completion

The amount of time between signing the Promissary Contract and Completion will vary and will have been agreed in the contract. Before Completion your lawyer will need to arrange with a fiscal representative for you to obtain a Portuguese Fiscal Number. The official Deed of Transfer of ownership (the Escritura) will be signed by you (or someone representing you with your Power of Attorney), this is signed at the Notary and they will retain the document. The Deed will be read aloud by the Notary before all participants sign it. Your lawyer will need to check to ensure that you understand what is being said if you do not understand Portugese. The Escritura, once it has been signed, will officially give you ownership of the property, but will still need to be registered in your name on the Land Registry (Registo Predial) by your lawyer. Your lawyer should obtain a copy of this for your records. Once you have completed, the new utility contracts can be transferred into your name by your lawyer.
