Villa With Panoramic Views Over Obidos Lagoon To The Atlantic Ocean

The spacious open-plan living area on the upper level enjoys truly spectacular views of the silver water and sunsets over the lagoon where it meets the wild Atlantic Ocean. Floor to ceiling opening glass doors give access to the large roof terrace with brick built barbecue and outdoor eating space for 8 and relaxed sitting space.
Inside there is a fully equipped modern kitchen with induction hob. The dining area, with custom made wood and marble dining table seating 8 and leather chairs, enjoys wonderful views of the lagoon. Finally there is comfortable indoor lounge seating for 8 for if it is cooler but you still want the view. The natural colours of the wood ceiling, white walls, terracotta floor and blue and white tiles in the upstairs cloakroom, maintain the Portuguese style. There is a wood burning stove for chilly evenings out of the main holiday season (there is no central heating).
The villa is spacious with large rooms, and the multiple living areas mean that everyone can find their own space to relax. The main entrance is on the ground floor into a wide entrance hall which will easily accommodate push chairs and car seats (parking in the road outside). Three main well appointed bedrooms are on this level, as well as a large additional lounge with TV, sofas, books and table for board games. A modern custom built steep oak staircase leads to the upper floor. There is also a wider external stair.
The large Pool View room (twin) is on the lower level by the pool (not suitable for young children) with bathroom, a small kitchenette and washing machine. Handy for pool changing and showering. This is reached by an external stair and is popular with teenagers.
The pool is sunny for most of the day and has a sheltered, secluded (gated) terraced area for sunbathing.
The veranda on the mid-level provides a shady place to sit and overlook the pool. The fenced garden offers a level play-space for children and sitting for adults and the established trees and shrubs provide shade if needed. In this part of Portugal there is often a light breeze making the temperature very pleasant for sitting outside. Shutters are available to keep the house cool on hotter days. The villa is on a small mature development at the end of a cul-de-ac with parking outside, The lagoon area is in easy walking distance and proximity to the A8 motorway makes it an excellent base to explore much of Portugal. There are many good and reasonable restaurants close by, so eating out is very affordable.
We built the villa 30 years ago, have grown up there and our children love it so we have refurbished it, maintaining the traditional feel and blending in modern amenities. We hope you enjoy it too.
