Villa Bensafrim with Moorish-Inspired Architecture stands quietly among the hills just outside Lagos, evoking Algarve’s rich architectural tradition. This villa, once celebrated by Condé Nast Traveler for its clean white forms and peaceful hillside setting, integrates the focus keyword with a contemporary vision of comfort and enduring style. The journey from its origins as a family retreat to its present status as a refined sanctuary is evident in every detail, from the sculpted archways and whitewashed exterior to the polished concrete floors and geometric tiling. Underfloor heating, double-glazed windows, and thoughtful renovations between 2012 and 2014 ensure year-round comfort and serenity.
Within the expansive 21,280 m² grounds, six bedroom suites and guest apartments embrace open-air corridors and calming courtyards. The main living area, anchored by a closed fireplace, leads effortlessly to a sunlit terrace beneath a bioclimatic pergola. The kitchen is equipped for both convivial gatherings and intimate family meals, while the 10 by 6 metre pool, shaded by mature trees and a second pergola, invites lingering afternoons outdoors. Mature gardens, fed by a private borehole, provide natural privacy and cooling shade.
Although it feels immersive and secluded, this villa provides convenient access to Lagos’s historic centre, golden beaches, marina, fine restaurants, and golf. With its touristic license and a strong rental record, Villa Bensafrim also offers the possibility to expand its built area, making it a rare investment among Portugal’s most desirable addresses. Amenities include air conditioning, an equipped kitchen, laundry, fireplace, exterior parking, and panoramic views across the pool and gardens.

Avoid common pitfalls
International buyers often waste valuable time on duplicate, outdated or misleading online listings, especially since nearly 30% of luxury homes never appear on the public market. Seller’s agents represent the seller’s interests, not the buyer’s. Even requesting information about a property can result in a seller’s agent registering you as their “client” without your consent.
With Baerz Property Finders & Advisors, you avoid all these pitfalls entirely. We work solely on your behalf, offering independent representation, clear guidance and access to all available properties, including off-market opportunities that others never get to see.
