I’m going to tell you the story of this house in the centre of Alte, where once the Ti Guerreira, a fat and squat furnace helped to give birth to most of the older Altenses. Ti Guerreira was responsible for the public oven of the village and received a loaf of bread for each batch and 2 loaves for each child who was baptised after the one who helped her to be born! Even today, the door, still of solid wood origin, is embellished with a cast iron beater in the shape of a child, indicating that the village midwife lived there. The house is habitable, however it needs renovation, but believe me it will be a big surprise when you walk through that door! With several levels, the house gives us the feeling of being in a labyrinth and becomes the back of it, where the garden invites us to leave. Entrance hall with bathroom, bedroom, kitchen with large dining room where large windows give access to the patio and outdoor garden that can be transformed into a small oasis and terrace to quietly have your meals and cool off in the small pool that on clear days you can see the sea in the distance. On the 1st floor, the owner started the construction of an independent flat with 2 bedrooms, living room and bathroom, but it was not finished. Alte, away from the touristic coast, is considered one of the most typical and preserved villages in the Algarve (and even in all of Portugal), with its houses painted in the current colours of the region (ochre, almagre, azulão, anthracite, standing out from a white background), the roof terraces, the traditional chimneys and the alleys paved in Portuguese cobblestone. Some demonstrative examples of this current effort are the urban art routes through the street art murals that decorate various corners of the village; Halloween, which reinforces the individual Trick-or-treating for children with concerts and street entertainment for the adult population; the Arts and Cultures Week, with recreational, musical, sports and gastronomic activities, several kilometres of walking or mountain biking to walk, for lovers of good food you can count on several typical restaurants, as well as the famous Queda do Vigário (waterfall) and Fonte Pequena where you can have picnics and bathe on hot summer days Alte awaits you and so do we! #ref:CAS_160
