I observe that the much-discussed green tiled building (near Bizarro) has a 'Vende-se' sign on it.
I should imagine the plot is worth a fortune; the structure itself rather less so.

Right I've got it sorted. We all need to buy a £1.50 euromillions lotto and one of us will surely win. They the rest of us will then mug the winner and convert the building into an "uber" hotel. This will attract the rich and famous into Albufeira, we will then all become super stars and will strutt our stuff along the prom in our "get you" outfits and designer shades (supplied by P & A Eyecare of course) and if we don't make any money out of it at least we'll look the part!

Me and my partner were looking at this a couple of weeks ago and commenting on what a nice building it could be especially with all the tiles refurbed....and then the sign went up on the wednesday 30th, we asked the agent out of curiosity and all he said was "nice building and a very nice price".

I've always had a soft spot for this building, and, often wondered what it would look like restored to it's former glory - stunning I think!! Oh well, that's another fantasy smashed to smithereens - I'd never in the memory of man be able to afford it, but, these are the things of dreams. Right near to the smashing home made cake in Bizarro too!!!

OK I have a good idea. We need to grab a shark, bang it on the head, stuff it, suspend it in formaldahyde in a tank, give it to the tate modern who will exhibit it and before you know it some eejit will give us 9.5million for it and we will then be able to buy the green tiled building and the rest of Albufeira!!

The "green building" with the fantastic view has planning permission for a restaurant, and the asking price is around 550000 Euros there is also a building behind it available for around the same price, so you can buy the two. Now that I have disclosed this I bet they will be gone before the weekend.

Has anyone seen the photo in the Resident of the Estoi Palace. It has been fully restored and renovated and looks a lot like the green tiled building. Just shows what could be done. If the green tiled building was renovated in a similar way it would look magnificent, particularly with it's location.

It's right in the middle of the little town of Estoi, which is just off the N2 about 6 miles north of Faro.
It's set in some very nice looking ornamental gardens which were open to the public a couple of years ago. It obviously was a palace. You approach through a suitably impressive set of gates along a gravelled drive past the stables and then the grand entrance up those steps. Never been inside as it was closed prior to restoration when last I was there.

I have also been there and it was under restoration so you couldn't go inside. Can you go inside it now? I was dying to go inside but everything was locked but we could peep thru some windows!
This place is magnificent, I have pics of it... will try and find them at some point. I wonder who this belongs to now and what is to become of it, is it a residence or a lodging of some sort?

Ok well ignore my previous post lol obviously this place is now some kind of resort!! Wow i can't believe what they've done, but at least the original house has been restored and refurbished by the looks of it. I think I'd be afraid to ask what it would cost to stay there one night!!

Hello, "Cubsur"
I was not shocked that the cliff at Maria Luisa beach collapsed! It was beyond horrible that anyone was caught beneath it, though. (I never walk close to those shored-up aberrations. I don't trust anything done by the new, young, town planners.) The elevator, the "new" plaza, which used to be O JArdim....
Do you have photos?
Has there been any progress in the search for the person who abducted little Madeleine?
I know that this is "off topic" but perhaps it is time to talk about things of consequence (?)
I visited the palace at Estoi some years ago. It was so beautiful. I am looking forward to seeing it again and perhaps being able to afford a cocktail there~!
Best,
Fiona

The green-tiled building is still for sale by the way!
The 'Madeleine' search has been forgotten here. There is no current discussion and none required in my opinion.

This building has been a For Sale eyesore for decades. What could be wrong with it that even the local developers don't want it? Would the entire walkway collapse? Something fishy here, if you ask me. The guy who owns Sao Vicente, Beach Basket and 2 restaurants in the village square ( I have forgotten his name for the mo') would have been the likeliest buyer

It would probably cost you that much again to repair it. Plus no parking space, so I will say it will fall down before it is sold.

Lower the price? It doesn't work like that!!!!! They are more likely to INCREASE the price. It could be that the person who owned it died ( likely) and the family cannot agree on how to deal with it. Maybe some want to sell and others don't in which case it stays as it is!!!!! Got to agree it would make a fantastic home, the views are great and you can guarantee that you wouldn't get anything built in front of you!!!! The rental potential would be brilliant.

Cheers Av, yep we're fine, and by coincidence, Charlotte is back from Uni tonight so the four of us are together for the first time in several weeks.
Trust you and yours are all well and good...

I've only just clocked, all the balustrade on the balcony has gone, completely. Shame.

Just back from a great six day stay in Albufeira, told that the Green House WILL NOT sell because it is haunted ! This 'problem has also affected the sale of the renovated house to the right. Any one heard the same?

Haunted? Wouldn't stop me buying and if you were going to do anything with it in the retail or leisure area, ie, restaurant, b & b, guest house etc., what a selling point that would be!

Good point, but it's the Locals who are concerned about the alleged spiritual activity and of course getting people to work on it could be a problem. Just passing on what we were told.I would like to hear more of the story if it has any truth in it!

Wonder who the ghost is then? maybe a previous owner who doesn't want their space invaded.

Well, I know it's easy to say after someone else has but I always thought it was haunted. I used to say that to Peter everytime we walked past!!
