Quinta D'Alegria
This traditional Quinta, built in 1871, was restored from ruin in 1999 into an award-winning home. Benefitting from stunning views of Funchal and sea, rooms are large, light and luxurious and the surrounding gardens abundant with palm trees, camellias, scented climbers, avocado trees and dazzling bougainvillea.
Like most traditional villas in Funchal, the house sits peacefully on the hillside on the Caminho do Monte below the famous wicker toboggan run, with breathtaking views over its own heated swimming pool to the town and bay of Funchal with sea beyond.
Owner Joy, a Madeira resident for over 30 years, offers this villa to those wanting quiet surroundings, stunning views over the bay of Funchal and perfect location, where the famous Monte toboggan run ends.!
Large terraces in the spacious gardens and around the pool are ideal for sun worshippers or, should you prefer, there is plenty of shade from a variety of trees. The gardens/terraces are furnished with sun beds, chairs, tables, parasols and a Webber BBQ.
A conservatory entrance leads to a dignified lounge and dining area, with open log fire for winter evenings and French windows opening on to the gardens and heated pool. The kitchen/breakfast room, with laundry room behind, leads to a BBQ area and shower/WC for use after swimming or sunbathing.
Upstairs are 3 bedrooms; 1 double en-suite, 1 double and 1 twin and a second bathroom. The kitchen is fully equipped with a breakfast table for 6 and gas hob, electric oven, fridge/freezer, dishwasher and microwave oven, coffee machine, toaster, cafetière, plus crockery, cutlery, glassware and cooking/serving utensils.
At the Eastern end of the garden in an elevated position is the Studio Annexe, for the 7th and 8th persons. Only rented with the main villa, it has its own separate entrance from the gardens. A living area with those superb views over Funchal is complemented by a kitchenette – ideal for preparing breakfast or a quick daytime snack. A king-size double bed and shower room completes this beautifully appointed studio.
