Buyers may choose this three-bedroom farmhouse for its 360-degree views, 28.728-hectare setting and position only 17km from the beach. The €1,200,000 Algarve property lies near Silves and combines a renovation project with agricultural land and rural tourism potential. It offers a compelling alternative to a conventional coastal home for purchasers wanting space, privacy and investment flexibility. The farmhouse is located on an elevated hillside within the Serra de Silves. From the summit, the estate enjoys wide panoramic views over the surrounding countryside. The existing Pre-1951 country house contains three bedrooms and two bathrooms. Its 142m² living area and 188m² construction area provide scope for a characterful renovation. A rustic fully fitted kitchen and lounge-dining room support comfortable country living. The fireplace adds warmth and traditional appeal during cooler months. Outside, the property includes a fenced garden, carport and gravelled access drive. There is parking space for several cars, making the estate suitable for family use or future guest accommodation. The land is currently a working fruit farm with around 12,000 medronho trees. Citrus, pine and other fruit trees contribute to the productive and natural landscape. Two lakes, a stream, two boreholes and a well provide valuable water resources. An autodrip irrigation system with approximately 32km of pipes supports the orchards and gardens. A rural tourism project has received pre-approval in principle to replace the current house with a hotel of up to 2,000m², subject to the relevant planning conditions. The plans also include pre-approval for a pool and a natural swimming lake. Silves offers a medieval castle, local amenities and a strong sense of Algarve history. Golf is around 9km away, the nearest school is approximately 2.8km away and Faro Airport is about 63km away. Buyers could enjoy a private countryside lifestyle while assessing future holiday rental or rural hospitality income. Contact us to schedule a viewing of this panoramic farmhouse near Silves.
