Property description

This lovely property is located in the Ferragudo area on a very quiet, residential urbanisation, approximately 1 kilometre from the coast. Ferragudo is located across the river estuary of Rio Arade, on the opposite side of the neighbouring bigger city of Portimâ;o.

Ferragudo is a beautiful village, very picturesque with whitewashed houses 'tumbling' down the hillside towards the riverfront. Ferragudo town is embraced by palm-fringed gardens, which run alongside a narrow riverlet up to the main cobbled square, Praca Rainha Dona Leonor. This is a lovely square, with lots of café’s offering delicious pastry. Around the corner, onto the quay, there are typical restaurants with a lovely view offering delicious, fresh fish dishes. Praia da Angrinha is the nearest beach with the amazing Fort of Sâ;o Joâ;o de Arade.

The whole of the Algarve coastline had various fortifications and watchtowers to protect it through the centuries and some other historical remains in the area are those of Atalaia and Quinta da Torre which were medieval watchtowers to give warning of attacks by pirates and corsairs. As you move away from the town centre, you have quite a few beaches: Praia Grande and Praia do Pintadinho and a bit further you will discover the beautiful Praia dos Caneiros. From the point beside Ferragudo lighthouse, there is a fantastic view of Portimâ;o across the river, the Monchique hills in the background and the sea stretching into the distance. If you love golf then this is the place for you as there are 2 great golf courses nearby: Vale da Pinta and Gramacho. If you like to play tennis, then Carvoeiro Clube de Ténis is conveniently positioned between Ferragudo and Carvoeiro. The historic town of Silves with its Moorish castle is also close by and really is worth a look.
