Algarvian Paradise for sale. 7.5hectare (more or less 20 acres) small-holding near Aljezur, west Algarve. Suitable for community living/retreat/guesthouse business. There are 4 houses, various structures and a popular, unique social space with a traditional
bread oven and fireplaces on the
land. Extensive organic vegetable garden and 100's of mature fruit and nut
trees, including
apple, pear, plum, apricot, peach, fig, lemon, orange, grapefruit, nespera, almond and walnut.
There are also hundreds of medronho bushes (the fruit of which produces the
local fire-water!) and cork oak trees.
The gardens and land have been lovingly tended for the last 17years we have lived there, following
permaculture practices, including a thriving grey
water system,
compost toilets and swales dug into the hillside.
The traditional taipa (rammed earth) houses have flush toilets and
wood burners and provide comfortable accommodation.
The property is bordered by a stream and has 2
wells and a borehole. Aljezur (7km away) is a large village with full amenities and there are numerous surfing/family beaches nearby. Access is by tarmac road.
During the 17years we have had the privilege to own and nurture this stunning property, we have hosted
Permaculture courses, run a successful guesthouse business and it has been used for community living. We are getting older, so the time has come to pass it on and enter a new chapter. Price is 950,000 euros(£820,000) negotiable.
