5 room luxury House for sale in Vila do Bispo, Portugal

Spread over 2 magnificent plots on the Santo Antonio Golf Resort and formerly owned by a celebrity, this recently renovated 5 bedroom villa impresses from the moment you set foot inside the property. Electric gates open to a cobbled parking area beside the grand entrance porch. Designed to really make the most of the views across the Santo Antonio golf course to the ocean in the distance, the villa is spread over 2 floors, with the living area being on the upper floor to capture the elevated views. Inside, the open-plan entrance hall has a guest cloakroom and pillared arches to the living room and to the glass-framed staircase. The living room has very large patio doors to the wide balcony which over-looks the stunning pool, the immaculate gardens and the golf course beyond, with views of the 10th and 18th holes. The living room benefits from a log-burner for cosy winter nights in. Pillared arches lead to the adjacent dining area, again with patio doors on to the balcony. The adjacent kitchen boasts a beautiful natural stone island with seating for 6 around the breakfast bar. The kitchen has a Bora induction hob with built-in extractor fan, 2 AEG ovens (conventional plus a combi microwave/ oven), an American-style fridge-freezer plus a wine refrigerator and an AEG dishwasher. Off the kitchen is a utility room with an AEG washing machine, a tumble dryer and a utility sink, plus ample storage space. The patio doors off the kitchen lead to a covered BBQ terrace with a brick barbecue and sink. There is ample space for dining on the balcony, and there are steps either end of the balcony going directly down to the pool area. On this upper level, there is also a large guest suite, comprising of 2 rooms: a large double bedroom and a cosy sitting room, which can double as an extra bedroom, both with access to a very spacious Jack & Jill bathroom with a large walk-in shower. Both rooms have access to the balcony that runs the length of the property. Downstairs there are a further 4 generous bedrooms, all with their own private bathrooms and each with direct access to the terrace beside the swimming pool. There's a covered over-hang which protects all the bedrooms from the summer heat, keeping them cool even on the hottest days. The whole house also benefits from air-conditioning, which heats and cools the property. The master bedroom also boasts a large walk-in wardrobe/ dressing area. In the hallway, there's an under-stairs store room, for linen, suitcases, etc. The stunning pool is heated and has a vast area of terraces surrounding it for sun-bathing and outdoor entertaining. There's even an extra kitchen beside the pool, plus an outdoor shower. Below the pool area is a store room and the pool pump room, which has further storage space. Beautifully landscaped gardens surround the property and the level of privacy is very good, with neighbours shielded from view, yet wide-open views across the golf course, with a glimpse of the sea in the distance. The entire villa and pool underwent a total renovation in 2020/ 2021 with an architect and an interior designer over-seeing the extensive remodelling of the property. The villa oozes quality, and feels and looks like a brand-new property, both inside and out! An alarm and cameras with remote access have been added for security. The villa is being sold fully furnished and ready to move straight into. If you want the property to generate a rental income, it's worth noting that this villa can easily sleep 12 people. Santo Antonio Golf offers a fabulous resort lifestyle, with great on-site facilities which include a reception, the clubhouse over-looking the golf course, 2 restaurants, a spa, a gym and tennis courts. Regular social events and the fact that many owners are living permanently or semi-permanently on the resort, creates a welcoming, secure environment to live in.
