The interior exudes an elevated aesthetic, featuring tasteful furnishings and commodious seating arrangements. Alongside the private swimming pool, guests are granted access to a clay tennis court and a small 5-a-side football pitch, offering delight to both young and mature visitors alike.
The villa boasts a fully equipped modern kitchen catering to culinary needs. A capacious living and dining area beckons with its inviting seating, complete with satellite TV and a DVD player. The area also accommodates a combined pool table and dining table, offering versatile entertainment. Doors seamlessly connect the space to the poolside area and barbecue terrace, facilitating easy outdoor access. Two bedrooms grace this floor – a double bedroom with an ensuite bathroom, and a twin bedroom, each featuring doors that open onto the front garden. A guest toilet completes the layout.
Ascending the villa, you'll find a master double bedroom with an ensuite bathroom, offering access to a capacious balcony that affords views of the sea. Another double bedroom, also ensuite, features a sizable balcony, while an additional double bedroom enjoys an ensuite bathroom and a private balcony overlooking the front garden.
A spacious covered terrace beckons, complete with an integrated barbecue, providing an idyllic setting for open-air dining. The villa's private pool, with dimensions 10 X 4 metres and depths ranging from 80cm to 170cm, features an electric cover for convenience. For sports enthusiasts, a clay-surfaced tennis court awaits alongside a compact 5-a-side football pitch. The well-maintained garden showcases a verdant lawn and graceful palm trees. Adequate private parking is available, rounding off the property's offerings.
Casa Varzea is in a prime location for amenities, with the beach, a supermarket, bars, restaurants and the town centre of Esposende all within easy walking distance of the villa. This makes it a perfect base for a family holiday, with little to no travel required to make the most of this beautiful area. Firmly off the tourist trail, you won’t find Esposende in many guidebooks, but don’t let that put you off. This charming town has much to offer, featuring many well-preserved and interesting archaeological sites and attractive areas to explore. The town is provincial in appearance with its riverside, palm-lined boulevard and marinas that are a nod to its fishing heritage.
In the town, you’ll find the popular Maritime Museum and leisure centre, and if you keep heading along the promenade, you’ll reach Esposende beach, a broad stretch of sand backed by low dunes and overlooked by the red metal tower of Esposende lighthouse. The beach is considered one of the finest on the Costa Verde and is a popular and laidback spot known for its quality surfing - and you don’t need to be an expert to have a go! Esposende is a great place to learn to ride your first wave. The breaks produce peaks and hollow waves of around a metre high - perfect for newcomers to the sport- and you won’t normally have to wait your turn, thanks to the sheer size of the beaches in the area and the fact that more experienced surfers tend to head to the more southern resorts. If you get a bit of a taste for surfing while you’re here, you might be interested to know that there are three surf camps in the town, all offering intensive week-long surfing courses, as well as kite-surfing. They also hire stand-up paddleboards, which can be a fun way to get around the calmer estuary waters.
The resort boasts a chain of Blue Flag Beaches, and on the other side of the river mouth, you’ll find the beach of Praia de Ofir; 3km of unspoiled, sand backed dunes surrounded by pine trees. A natural phenomenon of this beautiful beach is the rock formation that emerges from the sea at low tide and is known locally as the horses of Fao.
After a day of sun, sea and surf, head to one of the many bars and restaurants that surround the beach, where you’ll be able to enjoy all manner of local cuisine and refreshments to suit every palate.
