This property for sale near Silves has a pre-approved rural tourism project with potential for hotel construction of up to 2,000m². Offered at €1,200,000, the estate combines an existing three-bedroom farmhouse with 28.7 hectares of Algarve countryside. It is suited to buyers looking for a rural hotel investment, agricultural estate or distinctive tourism project. The proposed development would replace the current Pre-1951 country house if pursued. The existing dwelling provides 142m² of living area and 188m² of construction. It includes three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a rustic fitted kitchen and a lounge-dining room. Renovation of the farmhouse remains an alternative for purchasers who prefer a private rural residence. The elevated site has 360-degree views over the hills and surrounding countryside. It lies close to the medieval town of Silves and next to the Serra de Silves Natural Park. The estate is currently a working fruit farm with approximately 12,000 medronho trees. Medronho production could complement future visitor experiences, farm activities or local product sales. Citrus, pine and other fruit trees add further agricultural and landscape value. Water infrastructure includes two natural lakes, a stream, two boreholes and a well. An autodrip irrigation network extends across approximately 32km of pipes. The land therefore offers practical foundations for maintaining orchards and gardens. Pre-approval also exists for a pool and a natural swimming lake, subject to verification with the relevant authorities. A carport, gravelled drive and parking for several vehicles support operational access. The nearest school is approximately 2.8km away, while golf is around 9km from the estate. With the beach about 17km away and Faro Airport approximately 63km distant, the location could appeal to rural tourism guests seeking both nature and Algarve attractions.
