Here’s a fresh batch of five European homes for sale, each one built around a pool worth daydreaming about — spanning five different countries and a wide price range, from an under-€1 million Algarve villa to a €3.5 million seafront estate on the French Riviera.

A Pool Retreat in the Hills Above São Brás de Alportel

€850,000 — São Brás de Alportel, Algarve, Portugal. This single-storey, three-bedroom, three-bathroom villa sits on a 2,480 m² plot in the quiet village of Vilarinhos, with a private pool framed by a pergola and sweeping mountain views beyond.

Two Dwellings and a Sea View on Lefkada’s Coast

€1,095,000 — Nikiana, Lefkada, Ionian Islands, Greece. Built in 2004 and split across two separate dwellings, this six-bedroom, five-bathroom property sits just 400 meters from the sea near Nikiana and Nydri, with a pool that looks straight out toward the islets offshore.

A Modern Villa With Panoramic Sea Views in Estepona
