On a lush green hillside sits this stunning modern villa, with views down the cascading slope all the way to the Atlantic. A refurbished and extended old stone cottage, you'll find a luxurious space with huge floor-to-ceiling windows and sliding doors providing panoramic views. A high-tech kitchen means self-catering won't be a chore, and there's a wine fridge to make sure your glass of fizzy is served at just the right temperature. Slide open the doors to blur the lines between the indoors and out, with meals taken on the terrace. And if you'd rather cook in the open air, that's an option, thanks to the barbecue and outdoor kitchen area. There’s plenty to keep the kids entertained, with a separate games room with table football, TV, and a Playstation 4 games console all ready to go when they’ve had enough time in the sun. A real highlight of the home is the pristine swimming pool, with a range of loungers set around it so you can spend your days basking in the sunshine and enjoying the view of the ocean. If you can tear yourself away then the sandy beach at Calheta, along with a selection of cafes and... restaurants, is only a ten-minute drive away.
