First Floor
Ascending the original stone staircase, one of the oldest examples in Olhão, you enter a light-filled self contained studio. The space exudes charm with an exposed original brick ceiling and floor-to-ceiling triple windows opening onto the street below. The first floor suite, which can be booked individually or as part of the whole house, incorporates a bedroom with a seating area, kitchenette and en-suite shower room. The space runs from the front to back with double glass doors to the terraces beyond.
Bedroom
Portugal's history of artisan ceramic tiles and basket weaving has influenced the design of this room with the use of rattan furniture, locally-sourced straw lighting and the beautiful vintage tiled coffee table. A king-sized rattan bed with Portuguese white cotton bed linen, flanked with bedside tables, wall lighting and a free-standing wardrobe.
Additionally there is a sofa bed and coffee table beside one of the large windows, a lovely spot to enjoy a morning cup of coffee and watch the town come to life.
The original red bricked fllor has been restored and the vaulted ceiling exposed and clad in painted wood enhance the buildings’ charm. A notable feature of the space though is the light that floods in from the triple windows to the front and patio doors to the rear.

Kitchenette & Bathroom
Leading directly from the bedroom suite towards the rear of the property there is another attractive en-suite toilet and shower room. To the right there is a well-equipped kitchenette area with a fridge, microwave, hob and coffee machine with separate sets of crockery, glassware and cooking utensils. Light fills the space courtesty of the double patio doors leading onto the terraces beyond. See below for more images of this floor.
Roof Terrace
A set of double patio doors leads on to the first terrace with an L-shaped lounge/ dining outdoor sofa and dining table. A further set of stairs will take you to another roof terrace offering fantastic views over Olhão with two lounge sofas (that can double-up as sunbeds) a coffee table and bbq.
Both these terraces can be used privately if renting only the first floor unit or, if the whole house is taken, then the third terrace is also opened up to provide further options; where to sunbathe, a dip on the pool or just lounging & dining while watching the world go by below. See more images of the terraces below.
