Casa Childs
Stunning villa combining epic views with refined living.
The cicadas are always singing at Casa Childs, a private haven nestling amid five acres of pine, cork, orange and lemon trees. Boasting a fabulous tennis court, a mosaic-tiled swimming pool and a terrace that stretches the entire length of the villa, Casa Childs is one of the Algarve's best-kept secrets.
The villa itself was designed over forty years ago by its British architect owner and remains in the family today. The style is elegant and unpretentious: English designer fabrics, Portuguese ceramics, granite mined from the local hills, a Mark Wilkinson kitchen. There is a book and DVD library, a printer/scanner and Wi-Fi throughout. Central heating, a gorgeous log fire, the option of pool heating and the universally-adored maid, Rosaria, make this truly a house for all seasons.
Casa Childs is located near Caldas de Monchique, and has been designed as a traditional holiday home. It enjoys a nice view over the Algarve to the sea, and is set in 10,000m2. of established terraced garden with flowers, shrubs and trees. A large swimming-pool and a tennis court make this villa specially interesting for a group of friends, or a family with children.
