Buy this renovated Costa Vicentina beach cottage for £695,000 if you want a one-bedroom coastal retreat with solar panels and land. The home sits approximately 100 metres from the beach near Figueira in the West Algarve. Its 2008 renovation created a comfortable 50m² interior on a private plot of around 10,080m². The cottage dates from before 1951 and retains the character of a traditional rural building. Inside, the accommodation comprises an entrance hall, open-plan living and dining room, modern partly fitted kitchenette, one bedroom and one bathroom. The single-floor arrangement suits buyers seeking a compact second home. It is fully furnished and currently used as a peaceful holiday property. Solar panels supply electricity and can help support a more independent lifestyle. Water tanks provide the water supply, while gas bottles serve cooking and the water heater. A septic tank is also present. Double-glazed windows improve insulation, and shutters or blinds offer shade and privacy. The exterior includes private gated parking, a seating area and a BBQ space. The extensive plot combines natural and landscaped areas for outdoor enjoyment. Panoramic views and sea views reinforce the cottage's connection with the surrounding coastline. Figueira is only about 3.6 kilometres away, making village amenities readily accessible by car. Salema, Raposeira, Budens and Vila do Bispo offer additional restaurants, services and leisure opportunities. A golf course is approximately 5.4 kilometres away, while Faro Airport is around 104 kilometres from the property. Buyers could consider personal use, seasonal letting or a longer-term investment strategy, although potential rental returns and ROI require local market research and confirmation of permissions. The property remains officially classified as a pre-1951 barn, with a request submitted for habitation classification, so independent planning and legal advice should be obtained.
