Casa Flanco

Overview

Casa Flanco is a spacious five bedroom Premier Villa. This attractive holiday home offers an ever changing view of the Atlantic ocean and of the twinkling lights of Faro at night.  The many beautiful Algarve beaches are just a 20 minute (approx.) drive away.

The villa is located in a tranquil, authentically Portuguese area with lots of privacy – only 5 minutes from the historic town of Estoi and only 15 minutes north of Faro Airport.

Olhao & Tavira are 15-20 minutes away with its islands & beaches, shops and typical Portuguese lifestyle & character. However, if you would like the more touristic places, it’s only 20 to 30 min. to  Vilamoura, Albufeira and their beaches. Lisbon is a 2 and a half hour drive away and should you wish to visit interesting cities in Spain (i.e. Seville), a 2 hour drive will take you there.

The build of the house is distinctive and fitted with all modern conveniences. Available for 10 people, with 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms (3 en suite).

The one level villa includes a large, fully equipped kitchen, a living room with a fireplace, satellite TV, Sonos sound system and a large dining area.

At the East-side of the house there is a jeu-de-boules court (pétanque) for a fun game for young and old. A table tennis table is available with bats and balls. Around the pool are large parasols with comfortable cushioned deck chairs. Diving goggles, pool floats and other swimming pool accessories are also on hand.

Outside

The impressive 150m long driveway, aligned by over 130 cypress trees, leads up to the  50-year-old colonial-style luxury villa. Casa Flanco is on one level and has been completely renovated during 2015/2016 with use of contemporary and authentic materials. A wide, arched veranda with a very large outdoor table overlooks the lavish 13x5 meters swimming pool with comfortable deck chairs,  large parasols and a view of the garden and sea. Adjacent to the kitchen is a large ivy covered terrace with a built-in outdoor BBQ.

The luxury villa has a 10.000 square meter sub-tropical garden, filled with palmtrees, bougainvilleas, many fruit trees (squeeze your own OJ) and a large variety of colourful exotic plants, lovingly nurtured for over 50 years and located among fields filled with olive and almond trees. 

The villa is also ideal for children who love to play outside in the safely fenced wide garden. There are over 200 cypress trees throughout the garden, giving Casa Flanco its distinctive character. Nature, swimming, culture, shopping, beaches, golf and/or just plain relaxation around the house.

Please note: the pool is unfenced and there are 2 fountains at the property. Parents should be advised to keep small children in site at all times
