Tucked into wild scrubland at the edge of Melides, this villa is built around the unhurried rhythms of the Alentejo. Days start with garden light filtering into calm bedrooms and end with long dinners beneath a reed canopy beside an ancient olive tree. In between, there's a pool when the sun bites, a fireplace for cooler evenings, and full-height glass between the living space and garden that blurs the line between inside and out. Melides Lagoon is a thirteen-minute drive, and the Alentejo's vast Atlantic beaches are 9 kilometres away – far enough to feel remote, close enough to make the most of both.
