Apartment in the center of Faro with large areas, balcony in the living room and bedroom minimal decoration, very nice and bright. Next to the market of fruit and fish, next to public transport.900 meters from the old town and 15min from the beach. Parking on the property upon availability. Magnificent view of the mountains and the sea. There is a bus station 200 m form the house. You can go to the main bus station and main train station in 15 min walking, or 5 min by bus. You can get the bus to Faro beach or you can get the boat to the beach (magnificent islands, Faro Beach, Farol Island, desert island, Armona Island and culatra Island) 200m from the house, 10 min walking. There is a park in the bulding upon availability and at additional cost. There is all soo pay parking in the street .
I am currently residing in the city of Portimão. I lived in the city of Faro for 20 years, so I know the city of Faro and the Algarve very well. I perform my professional activity in the City of Faro. I am sociable and I love to travel.
For your comfort it is available at 200 meters from the house, supermarkets, restaurants, pharmacy, banks and the square, open every day from 7:00 until 13:00, with fresh bread, cold cuts, various cheese, vegetables, fresh fruit and much more. The neighborhood is very safe and friendly. We can relax in the cafes of the square and go to some quality restaurants around to eat.
