About this property
Typical Farm Apartment, sunny views.
The apartment is filled with original and traditional Madeiran features and has been sympathetically renovated to provide a base for a perfect holiday. If you like the idea of living within a typical Madeiran community while relaxing in the quiet haven of the substantial tropical gardens, you will love this house. With sun terrace for al fresco dining, and a sun deck area in the garden - in full sun all day – and a wood BBQ the villa lends itself to a very social holiday. Three bedrooms both with access to the south-facing sun terrace benefiting from fabulous sea and mountain views, large family bathroom and living room. Modern kitchen and dining area. Tropical garden with fruits and banana tree. Even with acess for you to explore the farm.
The parish of Arco da Calheta is surrounded to the north and west by the parish of Calheta, and east by the municipality of Ponta do Sol (specifically the parishes of Canhas and Madalena do Mar), fronting the Atlantic Ocean along its southern border. Buildings are found in the amphitheatre-shaped valley, as well as on the escarpments overlooking the community, alongside Calheta (in Calhau Grande) and Madalena do Mar (Achada de Santo Antão). Its landscape within this semi-circular valley was the basis for its name; the early settlers, owing to the band/arch of settlements with the valley, baptized the region the "Arch of Calheta", or Arco da Calheta. A band of laurisilva forests subdivides the parishes built-up area from the barren vegetation of the mountains.
The municipality of Calheta is located between the south and the west end of the island of Madeira. Many points of interest attract a large number of visitors to this municipality, from the countless hiking trails in Nature to the diversity of its beaches, as well as cultural or historically-relevant spaces.
The question 'what to visit at Calheta?' is therefore always easy to answer. There are ideal places for every type of visitor: those looking for an adventure in Nature or in the sea, those who want to enjoy a memorable regional gastronomic experience or those who want to travel through the pages of this island's history, for example.
The fact that this is the largest municipality in the Autonomous Region of Madeira contributes greatly to this diversity of options. With an area of 116 km² and about 12 thousand inhabitants, this municipality is made up of eight parishes: Arco da Calheta, Calheta, Estreito da Calheta, Fajã da Ovelha, Jardim do Mar, Paul do Mar, Ponta do Pargo and Prazeres.
With one of the lowest rainfall rates on the island and a mild climate all year round, the municipality of Calheta offers an unforgettable experience to all visitors.
