Located in a quiet, upmarket suburb, with views across the orchards to Silves castle, this corner building plot is ready for you to build your dream home!  A planning project has been approved for a gorgeous 3-bedroom home with basement garage, or you can adjust the project to suit your own style.  This is a great location, on the edge of town but just a short walk to cafés, restaurants, river walks and the castle. There is a daily market in town as well as a wide variety of shops and all the amenities you could need, including public swimming pool and gym facility.  Beaches are a 15-minute drive away.

The current design is for double doors to open to an entrance hall. This will lead to an open-plan living room with lounge with fireplace and a dining area with windows to the east and south. Next to this will be a kitchen with breakfast counter overlooking the dining area.  On the ground floor there will be 2 bedrooms (one with a spacious en-suite bathroom) plus a family bathroom with shower.  Upstairs will be a large master bedroom suite with a bathroom plus a private terrace with views to Silves castle. There will be a spacious basement garage with a WC, plus another parking space (shaded by a pergola) next to the front door.

There will be space in the garden for a pool, if you wish.

Current estimates to build are €2,000 per m2, and there is permission for 2 floors of 120m2 each, plus a basement garage. Mains water, sewerage, electricity and fibre internet are available.

This would make a lovely family home, but also a great lock-up-and-leave holiday home.  Beaches are only 15 minutes, Silves golf is less than 10 minutes, and there are a good selection of international schools within a 15-minute drive (including German, Dutch and Nobel).  Alternatively, the local schools (pre-school to secondary) are a 5-minute walk. Faro airport is only 45 minutes by motorway.
