House-like apartment in a historic townhouse | Central Olhão

Located in the bourgeois heart of Olhão, just a few minutes’ walk from the markets and the seafront, this property combines the charm of historic architecture with the relaxed lifestyle of the Algarve.
Housed within a former early 20th-century townhouse, once owned by local shipowners, the building is now shared by only two owners, preserving its quiet intimacy and refined atmosphere.
Behind its elegant façade lies a true private oasis, hidden from view – a calm and refreshing retreat, almost like a riad nestled in the heart of the city.

With its own private entrance, this apartment truly feels like a house.
A 120 m² private garden naturally extends the living spaces, forming a lush haven planted with mature greenery. This tranquil outdoor area features a saltwater swimming pool currently under legalization, surrounded by exotic wood decking and fitted with an electric cover.
On the roof, a private 127 m² rooftop offers great potential for customization – ready to be transformed into a panoramic terrace, a summer lounge, or a green rooftop garden overlooking the city.

The apartment offers 183 m² of usable interior space, harmoniously divided between generous reception rooms and more intimate private areas.
The spacious living and dining rooms open onto a high-end kitchen, combining design and practicality, and directly onto the garden.

It includes four bedrooms, including a 35 m² master suite with its own lounge, dressing area, and en-suite bathroom.
Two interior rooms without windows provide additional space, ideal for guest bedrooms, a home office, or a wellness area.

The property retains its historic character – high decorative ceilings, restored hydraulic mosaic floors, and original ironwork – while integrating contemporary comfort: insulation, air conditioning, and a fully equipped Falcon kitchen.

Olhão, between authenticity and seaside living
Nestled between Faro and Tavira, Olhão is a coastal town full of charm, famous for its fishing port – the largest in the Algarve –, its Moorish-inspired cubist architecture, and its colorful markets.
Lively yet peaceful, it is ideal for both a secondary residence and year-round living, offering a unique balance between tradition, culture, and seaside lifestyle.
