The asking price for this 3-bedroom rural tourism property in the Algarve is €1,200,000. It includes a 287,280m² estate near Silves, a 142m² farmhouse and pre-approval for a rural tourism project with up to 2,000m² of construction. Buyers seeking an Algarve property with land, agricultural activity and hospitality potential will find a rare combination here. The existing country house dates from before 1951 and requires renovation. It provides three bedrooms, two bathrooms and a 188m² construction area. The elevated position in the Serra de Silves delivers impressive 360-degree countryside views. Around 12,000 medronho trees support the estate’s current working fruit farm operation. Citrus, pine and other fruit trees add further agricultural and landscape value. Two natural lakes, a stream, two boreholes and a well provide substantial water resources. An autodrip irrigation network extends across approximately 32 kilometres of pipes. The property also has mains electricity, a septic tank and the possibility of connecting to mains water. The pre-approved tourism concept could allow the current house to be replaced by a larger hospitality development. This creates scope for rural accommodation, retreats or an agritourism business, subject to the relevant approvals and final implementation. Its setting beside the Serra de Silves Natural Park offers privacy and a strong nature-based tourism appeal. Silves, with its medieval castle, historic centre and local amenities, is close by. The nearest school is approximately 2.8 kilometres away, while golf is around 9 kilometres from the estate. Algarve beaches can be reached within approximately 17 kilometres. Faro Airport is about 63 kilometres away for international travel. The land and existing agricultural operation may provide income potential, although future returns will depend on management, investment and licensing.
