Description
Quinta dos Patos is a lovely, bright, four bedroom villa ideal for a large family, a group of friends or two small families. It is situated 4km from the wonderful town of Olhao, 12km west of Faro and 20km east of the charming town, Tavira. The villa is situated on the Ria Formosa Nature Park, famous for its deserted dunes, sheltered pines and breathtaking beaches.
The Ria Formosa Nature Park can be seen when you fly into Faro airport. The stunning network of barrier islands and inlets are created by constantly shifting sandbanks. The nature park is an area of oyster and salt farming, fishing and shellfish harvesting and an important breeding ground for many coastal birds. Ferry boats take visitors from Olhao to the remote islands of Barreta, Culatra, Armona and Ilha Tavira.
Quinta dos Patos is situated on a fabulous enclosed plot of approximately 5000 sqm brimming with lawns, colourful shrubs and trees and a huge terrace surrounding the wonderful 11m x 5.5m curvy swimming pool. The pool is surrounded by sun loungers. The pergola-covered alfresco dining area has a small outdoor kitchen area and built-in barbecue. There is also a covered outdoor lounge area and an external shower.
The ground floor of the villa flows so well with an open-plan design. The living area features an attractive fireplace though it is for decoration only and the kitchen enjoys a breakfast table as well as there being a formal dining area. There is a fun games room featuring a billiards table. The floors in the living spaces are all tiled and super shiny. The furnishings are tasteful and comfortable. There is also a twin bedroom and a well-maintained bathroom on the ground floor.
The first floor gallery has a lovely reading area and three bedrooms which all have en-suite bathrooms and access to a terrace. The bathrooms are all tiled, immaculate and well-maintained. Two of the bedrooms upstairs have twin beds, and the other has a queen-size bed.
