An imaginative restoration of what was once a typical village farmhouse has produced this charming contemporary home which sits within spacious walled grounds and boasts a host of enticing features for fun-filled family holidays by the sea: a spacious games room, pool heating for comfort in the cooler months, sea views from a wide first floor terrace and proximity to the golden sands, seafront cafes and restaurants of Moledo’s picturesque shoreline.
Only a short distance from the waterfront itself, a series of cobbled village streets weave their way between typical homes, overlooked to the rear by a lush backdrop of forested slopes, before arriving at the entrance gates of Casa do Salgueiro. Here, within a boundary of traditional stone walls this characterful property welcomes with its rustic grounds of fruit trees and flowers, and views to the hillside beyond. Above the pool a spacious terrace adjoins the first-floor bedrooms, extending outwards to provide the perfect spot for lounging on a sofa whilst looking across neighbouring rooftops to the glistening ocean beyond.
A pleasing sense of space and a fresh décor of neutral tones prevails inside the house where a large section of the ground floor is occupied by one of the most charming living rooms we have seen. Here, the sitting and dining areas are delightfully connected by an original stone arch, the former kitchen is cleverly displayed beyond a wall of tiles that were purchased from Lisbon by the property’s previous owner, and bi-fold doors open out onto the poolside terrace to provide easy access for indoor-outdoor living.
With the sandy beach being just 1.2km away and the nearest restaurant a pleasant 600m stroll from the house, this is an ideal base for exploring this pretty coastal village without always requiring a car. Overlooking the waterfront, a selection of cafes and restaurants enjoy views to sea whilst within the village itself are some local shops for essentials.
