| Location |
Ponta do Sol enjoys a privileged location on the south coast of Madeira (to the west of Funchal). It offers quick and easy access to the city of Funchal, thanks to the new motorways, while retaining the quaint country feel of the villages that make up the area. This area also offers beautiful mountain and levada walks, and westwards you find some of the most typical sea-side villages on the island. It enjoys one the best microclimates in Madeira, with abundant sunshine and mild temperatures all year round. The area is in the process of benefiting from a number of infrastructure improvements and public works, including in the very near future, a marina and sea-side promenade. It is only a few minutes' drive from the beach and the numerous facilities of Ribeira Brava.
The motorway provides easy access to Ribeira Brava (5 min), Funchal (20 min), the airport (35 min) and site for the new 18-hole golf course in Ponta do Pargo (25 min). |
| The Property |
This two-storey villa has some charming detail that complements its simple design, such as walls and chimney in natural stone, making it fit well with the environment. The villa enjoys magnificent views of the sea and all the surrounding rural countryside, interspersed with houses that characterise the Madeiran villages. The garden is small but functional and with very good exposure to the sunshine, with a stone barbecue. The interior finishes are of a good quality, including wooden floors in the bedroom areas, rustic tile in the living areas, solid wood kitchen units, etc.
