I just love these homes and properties! I was born in a stone cottage in a tiny village outside Porto de Mos (district of Leiria). My parents renovated it just enough to make it comfortable but retained its rustic Portuguese charm. We live in the USA but visit periodically and with spouses, children, etc. we turn the garage into dorm style sleeping quarters. When my son brought his girlfriend on a visit, she was such a good sport and fell in love with it, in spite of the donkey braying and pig snorting next door. That's how we knew she was the right one. On the next visit they became engaged in the Algarve. Beautiful memories and more to come! It warms my heart that you and others love our beautiful little country and are pouring your heart into restoring and beautifying it!

I'm not sure if there is a place to see this data but we have been looking at properties here for over a year and struggle to find a farm with an asking price of 100k that has a habitable youse that you could move right into. In fact most are complete ruins you would need to fully renovate and get planning permissions. We got our farm for a great deal back in December 2019 and since Brexit and the corona virus we have seen prices increasing as more people want to escape the cities in search of a better way to live.
