This delightful two storey semi-detached house sits in an elevated position with fantastic south-east facing views across the village to the Costa Vicentina Natural Park. The village of Budens, just a 5-minute stroll away, has a number of restaurants and cafés, plus a large supermarket.

Being on a hillside, the property is entered from the upper level, meaning that the living area benefits from the stunning, panoramic views. The property has been beautifully modernised throughout. On the upper level, the entrance hall leads into a spacious open-plan kitchen / diner / living room with patio doors leading to the balcony with those lovely views. The modern fitted kitchen comes with an electric oven and hob, plus a dishwasher, and the living room features a large picture window and a built-in log-burner, making the property very cosy on winter evenings. There's also a guest cloakroom off the entrance hall.

Stairs lead down to the 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. The master suite has its own private bathroom with a large walk-in shower, plus built in wardrobes, and patio doors to the front terrace. The second bedroom has access to the large side terrace and garden, plus it has built-in wardrobes. Both bedrooms have electric wall-mounted heaters. There's a spacious family bathroom with a large walk-in shower. Within this bathroom, there's also a laundry room plus an under-stairs cupboard for storage. Both bathrooms have heated towel rails.

The spacious terrace and garden is very private, surrounded by hedges and a stone wall, and offers ample space for outdoor dining under the pergola or just to relax and sun-bathe. It comprises a large cobbled area and gravel beds with beautiful potted plants. Beyond the terrace, a gate leads to a small area used for clothes drying, potting plants and storing logs. There are also further log storage areas next to the house. For hot water, there's a large electric boiler housed in an outside cupboard. The house is being sold partially furnished. There's ample free parking in the street, directly in front of the house.

Pathways lead down through the development and mature gardens to the communal pools (one large adult pool plus a smaller childrens pool), which are heated for around 7 months of the year. There are changing facilities beside the pool and ample terrace space for sun-bathing. The Santo Antonio Golf Course is just a 2 minute drive away and the property is only 3kms from the pretty sea-side village of Salema with its golden, sandy beach and a multitude of fantastic restaurants and bars. The wild, natural beach and nature reserve at Boca do Rio are less than a 5 minute drive away.

This property is perfect for anyone wanting a house on a lovely development where everything is well looked after, not just as a holiday home, but ideal for permanent living too. The resort fees are very reasonable. Other beach resorts such as Burgau and Luz are within a short 10 minute drive, as are the beautiful surfing beaches on Portugal's West Coast. And for those who enjoy hiking, horse riding, mountain biking, etc. the beautiful Costa Vicentina Natural Park surrounds the village. Restaurants, cafes and a large supermarket in the village are all within walking distance.
