Calheta (Madeira), Ilha da MadeiraLand in Estreito da Calheta with 1 500 m²







Set in the highly desirable area of Caminho dos Moinhos, Estreito da Calheta, this exceptional 2,999 m² plot offers a rare opportunity to build a dream home in one of Madeira's most sought-after locations. Occupying an elevated position with sweeping views across the Atlantic Ocean and the dramatic mountains of Madeira's southwest coast, the property enjoys the perfect balance of privacy, tranquillity and convenience. With direct road access and excellent year-round sun exposure, this is a setting that captures the very essence of island living. Located within a Zona de Edificação Dispersa, the plot benefits from development potential subject to municipal approval. The applicable planning parameters allow for up to 400 m² of construction, with a maximum building height of 8.5 metres, maximum overall height of 10 metres, maximum façade height of 7 metres, maximum impermeable area of 50%, and minimum side and rear setbacks of 3 metres. These parameters create an excellent opportunity to design and build a substantial contemporary villa, luxury family residence or exclusive holiday retreat. What truly distinguishes this property is its outstanding location. Just minutes away lies Calheta Beach, one of Madeira's few golden sandy beaches, alongside the vibrant Calheta Marina, waterfront restaurants, cafés and leisure facilities. Supermarkets, schools, pharmacies, health services and everyday amenities are all conveniently accessible, while the charming villages of Jardim do Mar and Paul do Mar are nearby, offering some of the island's most scenic coastlines, surfing spots and sunset viewpoints. Despite its peaceful setting, the property remains well connected, with easy access to the island's main road network, placing Funchal within comfortable driving distance and making both permanent living and holiday use exceptionally convenient. As prime development plots with road access, generous build potential and uninterrupted sea views become increasingly scarce in Calheta, this property represents a unique investment in one of Madeira's fastest-growing and most desirable areas. Imagine waking each morning to panoramic ocean views, enjoying Madeira's renowned sunshine throughout the year, and creating a bespoke home perfectly positioned between the mountains and the sea.
