Description
VALE DA NORA: WHERE TIMELESS LAND MEETS VISIONARY POSSIBILITY
AN ICONIC ESTATE IN THE FOOTHILLS OF LOULÉ’S UNSPOILT INTERIOR
Set among the rolling hills and ancient groves of Salir, Vale da Nora offers a rare opportunity to acquire over 53,000 square metres of prime Algarve countryside with legal residential and agricultural usage. Approved under Alvará de Utilização No.10/2024, this estate is a fully registered property with enormous scope to become a signature rural residence, a sustainable retreat, or a private family home with scale and soul.
A LANDMARK OF NATURAL GRANDEUR AND ARCHITECTURAL POTENTIAL
The estate features a registered 1,180-square-metre residential structure ready for development or completion, along with a 352-square-metre agricultural support building ideal for stables, workshops, or storage. A swimming pool is also authorised, further enhancing its lifestyle credentials. This is a project-ready estate, offering legal clarity and architectural freedom within a setting of rare privacy.
A LIVING, BREATHING LANDSCAPE
Spanning 5.35 hectares, the land is rich with natural features and agricultural value. The property includes mature carob trees, almond trees, and olive trees, set within gently undulating terrain. The landscape invites sustainable living, organic cultivation, equestrian use, or simply an extraordinary canvas for a private estate surrounded by nature and silence.
LEGAL CLARITY AND INVESTMENT SECURITY
Vale da Nora is fully registered and benefits from an official Usage Licence authorising both residential and agricultural use. While it does not currently hold a habitation licence, its formal land classification and legal documentation make it a highly secure rural asset for both national and international buyers. Properties of this scale and legal standing are increasingly rare, particularly within reach of key Algarve destinations.
A PRIVATE WORLD WITHIN EASY REACH
Despite its tranquil setting, Vale da Nora is only 10 minutes from the local village of Salir, 20 minutes from Loulé, and 35 minutes from the beaches and golf courses of Vilamoura. Faro International Airport is accessible in under 40 minutes. This blend of total seclusion and immediate connectivity adds significant lifestyle appeal to the estate.
EXCEPTIONAL VALUE IN A TIGHTENING MARKET
With rural licensing restrictions increasing, estates of this calibre are becoming extremely difficult to replicate. At €4,250,000, Vale da Nora represents extraordinary value for its scale, usage rights, and long-term potential. Whether your goal is legacy ownership, strategic land acquisition, or visionary development, this is a rare opportunity to secure a landmark Algarve estate at below-market price.
