Set amongst the almond groves of the Central Algarve, Quinta do Pica-Pau is a beautifully positioned country residence enjoying far-reaching views towards the Ria Formosa and the Atlantic Ocean beyond. Occupying a privileged position within expansive private grounds, the property offers a wonderful sense of space, privacy and connection to nature, whilst remaining just moments from the vibrant coastal town of Olhão and only 20 minutes from Faro Airport.
Built on the site of the original farmhouse, the new villa combines elements of Algarve architecture with a bright and contemporary interior, creating a comfortable home that feels both welcoming and connected to its surroundings.
The single story living and sleeping areas benefit from an abundance of natural light. Expansive south-facing concertina glass doors open onto the terraces and pool area, framing uninterrupted countryside and sea views. The open-plan living and dining spaces flow naturally into a fully fitted and equipped kitchen, creating a sociable environment for everyday living and entertaining. A fully integrated Bang & Olufsen sound system is installed throughout the home.
The villa offers four generous ensuite bedrooms, each enjoying direct access to private terraces and the surrounding views. A separate lower-level cinema and games room provides additional space for family gatherings, relaxation or entertaining guests.
Outside, life centres around the spacious terrace and impressive 16-metre heated infinity-edge swimming pool. A sail-shaded dining area provides the perfect setting for long lunches and relaxed evenings, while integrated seating areas invite quiet moments overlooking the landscape. Above, the rooftop terrace captures panoramic 360-degree views across the coastline, countryside and surrounding almond groves, providing an exceptional vantage point for sunset drinks and starlit evenings.
Approached via a long private driveway that gently winds through the grounds, the setting immediately conveys the peaceful character that defines this home. Surrounded by nature yet within easy reach of beaches, restaurants, local markets and wildlife, Quinta do Pica-Pau offers a rare opportunity to enjoy a private countryside lifestyle without feeling isolated. It is a home that embraces the Algarve's natural beauty, combining comfort, character and a genuine connection to its surroundings.
