Hey there, I know you're hunting for a new home and I’ve found a real gem for you in the Algarve, Silves, Portugal. This villa, dripping with charm, is everything you would expect from a cozy Portuguese countryside retreat. Nestled between the delightfully quaint medieval town of Silves and São Bartolomeu de Messines, this property offers two spacious houses with jaw-dropping views all the way to the coast.
