Description

Where a boutique hotel once stood, a city villa spanning several levels takes shape in the historic centre of Silves. A lift eases movement between the floors, and on the roof a private pool opens up panoramic views of the surroundings. The project awaits final approval from the council.

The villa stands in the historic centre of Silves in the Algarve. Town, restaurants, bars and shops are each about one minute away by car, the golf course is five minutes from the house and the beach ten. The airport can be reached in roughly 35 minutes. Everyday destinations are therefore close at hand. The building was originally a boutique hotel and is conceived as a spacious residence that combines contemporary design with historical charm.

The ground floor, at around 217 m², holds a large garage, an open area for use as an office or atelier, and a guest apartment with a large living room, bedroom and bathroom. The first floor (around 316 m²) offers an open-plan kitchen, living and seating area with storage space and a guest WC. The second floor (around 213 m²) provides four bedrooms, each with its own bathroom; the master suite measures just under 25 m², its bathroom about 11 m². A lift connects the floors.

The highlight is the roof terrace with its private pool, which occupies around 22 m² including its structure. From here, panoramic views extend over the surroundings. The roof level offers a veranda of around 83 m² and a usable terrace of around 102 m², about 185 m² in total; including the pool the figure is around 207 m². A covered area measures about 56 m². An outdoor kitchen, a laundry area and a guest WC complete the space for dining outdoors and relaxing.

For the indoor climate, the building is expected to have either floor heating or an insulated floor build-up with an air-flow heating and cooling system. A lift eases movement between the floors, the ground-floor garage provides ample parking space, and the storage areas keep the living spaces uncluttered. On a 318 m² plot, the house offers 758 m² of living space with five bedrooms and six bathrooms. The project is currently awaiting approval from the council.
