SALIR

Portugal

A rare opportunity to own a home surrounded by nature in the hills near Salir, on the edge of the Rocha de Pena Nature Reserve, a remarkable reserve in the Algarve hills. The reserve is known for its stunning geological formations, rich biodiversity, and panoramic views.

This detached quinta is hidden away in the peaceful countryside of Brazieira, and is an attractive three-bedroom property that enjoys an exceptional position surrounded by the natural beauty of the area.

Here, the landscape takes centre stage. From the property, there are outstanding, far-reaching views across the countryside and towards the Rocha de Pena, while the surrounding hills and mature vegetation, including mature holm oak, cork oak and alfarroba create a wonderful sense of privacy and tranquility.

Set within approximately 2,573 m² of land, the property offers the space and freedom to enjoy a genuinely rural Algarve lifestyle, yet remains within easy reach of Salir, Benafim, Alte and the wider Central Algarve.

The villa, approximately 170 m², combines traditional character with comfortable accommodation. The living space is warm and welcoming, with a fireplace creating a natural focal point, while the three bedrooms and two bathrooms (one en-suite) provide practical accommodation for family and guests. All three bedrooms benefit from fitted wardrobes and the master bedroom has doors out to the rear terrace. The hallway leading to the bedrooms also benefits from a large storage cupboard.

Outside, the property really comes into its own. A generous terrace provides the perfect setting for long lunches, alfresco dining and enjoying the spectacular landscape, while the large newly refurbished 12 x 6 metre swimming pool offers an inviting place to cool off during the long Algarve summers.

The gardens and surrounding land blend naturally into the countryside, giving the property a feeling of being immersed in nature rather than simply surrounded by a conventional garden.

There is also a borehole with new pump, barbecue area, terraces and private swimming pool, adding to the property's appeal as both a permanent home and a wonderful Algarve retreat.

The location is part of the appeal

The hamlet of Brazieira offers something increasingly difficult to find: peace, space and an authentic connection with the Algarve countryside.

Salir sits at the meeting point of the Algarve's Barrocal and the Serra do Caldeirão, an area known for its open landscapes, hills and traditional rural character. The surrounding area offers excellent opportunities for walking, cycling and exploring the inland Algarve, with the dramatic Rocha da Pena also close by.

Yet this is not a property that feels cut off from civilisation. Salir provides local cafés, restaurants and everyday amenities including a supermarket, as do both Benafim and Alte, while Loulé, the airport and the coast are accessible easily by road. For those enjoying golf, the new Ombria Golf Course, spa and restaurant is less than a 20-minute drive.

For buyers seeking a home away from the busy coastal resorts somewhere to breathe, unwind and enjoy the landscape this is an opportunity worth discovering.
