Place yourself in the heart of the Algarve at this contemporary villa fringing the old village of Vilamoura. Inside, free-flowing living spaces and bedrooms, each with its own en-suite bathroom, span across one level. While some of the artwork may not be to everyone’s taste, it does give the home a welcoming lived-in feel. And kids (and big kids) will love you for that games room with pool table – and of course, that magnificent private pool hugged by verdant established gardens. Location-wise, the chi-chi marina and the pristine white sands of Praia de Vilamoura are an easy drive away (five kilometres) and well worth the trip.
