With glass balcony doors lining the house, this architectural marvel is a true ode to the exquisite landscape of Caniço. Each room looks out onto the lush native plant life in the garden, and the ocean beyond. This is lateral living at its finest, and the design-led interiors are sleek and minimalist. The modern white kitchen is well equipped for cooking up family style meals, which you can enjoy alfresco on the veranda. All three bedrooms have spectacular views, and you’ll love throwing open the curtains each morning before heading down to the pool for a dip. There’s a large shallow area in the pool, so it’s perfect for little ones to splash around in when they’re not playing in the garden. You are perfectly placed to explore Caniço’s delights from here. The house is within walking distance of a supermarket, a cafe and a handful of family run restaurants. Drive five minutes to the beach, where you can spend the day frolicking in the waves. When you come home, whip up some cocktails and watch as the sun sets over the sea.
