Located in a quiet area of the parish of Tunes, just 15 minutes from the beautiful beaches of Albufeira, 26 minutes from the mythical city of Silves and 35 minutes from Faro Airport. The area is very quiet and surrounded by beautiful green spaces, the ideal place to live and breathe the fresh air of the Algarve.

Currently the villa has 1 old oven, 4 bedrooms, bathroom, living room and kitchen in open-space. Outside you will find some olive trees, a fenced space where the owner had a horse and a large space for cultivation. The infrastructure of electricity, septic tank, water network, are already prepared. Tunis comes from the Arabic "at-Tunis", and opinions regarding the origin of the place name are divided between those who claim that it is due to the fact that the settlement that first settled there came from Tunis in North Africa; In the 19th century, in the place that is now called Tunis, there were only a few houses belonging to farmers who cultivated vines.

The first neighbourhoods began to appear when the railway station was opened on the Gateiras site. Initially, the planned location of the station was in the village of Tunes, in Algoz, the village that gave its name to the parish of Tunes. However, due to the slope of the terrain, it was decided to build the station one kilometre further east.

The settlement of this parish developed around the railway junction that connected Lisbon to the Algarve and was mostly made up of railway employees. At the same time, with the appearance of the thermoelectric power station, the development of this parish was notorious. Today, Tunes is increasingly a parish that follows the route of national tourism, in its station pass daily trains Alfa Pendular and Intercidades to Lisbon or Faro, and regional trains between Vila Real de Santo António and Lagos.
