Kindly note that this is a personal home, so please take good care of it as if it were your own. This property is located in the quiet residential area of Olaria in Caniço, offering a peaceful atmosphere while remaining close to local amenities and transport connections. Within the surrounding area, you will find landmarks such as Jardins do Atlântico, Jardins do Garajau, and Garajau View, which give the neighbourhood a welcoming and familiar character. A short drive takes you to the Teleférico do Garajau, a cable car that links the Christ the King statue with Praia do Garajau. From here, you can enjoy dramatic ocean views or explore the beach, which is popular for snorkelling and diving. Nature enthusiasts will also enjoy the proximity to Quinta do Palheiro Ferreiro, a historic botanical garden filled with lush landscapes and scenic walking routes through the subtropical surroundings of Madeira. Small shops, cafés, and services are nearby for daily needs, while the vibrant city of Funchal, with its cultural attractions, markets, and restaurants, is just a short drive away. The property is easily accessible by public transport and by car. The nearest bus stop, Rua Da Olaria Bonamadeira, is just a 7-minute walk. Madeira Airport is a 14-minute drive from the property.
