We have handpicked ten gorgeous Portuguese multi-bedroom homes, ideal for those searching for a home big enough for loved ones to stay. Discover family homes in the Algarve, Cascais and beyond.
Are you looking to purchase a property in Portugal big enough for all your nearest and dearest to stay? You might be looking to start your new chapter as a family in Portugal. Or, it could be a great way for the family to come together for a concentrated time of year, rather than the usual struggle of when to marry up diaries and see each other. It could even be your welcome escape from the usual bustle of family life – you and your mates could spend holidays there.

Buying a home with family or friends
Moreover, if you are all planning to use the home, you may want to consider buying with family or friends. With a little extra planning, this is a fantastic way to share out the costs of buying a property abroad. Plus, if you’re looking for a holiday home rather than a permanent property, you might prefer the idea of multiple people getting to enjoy it throughout the year, rather than it just sitting empty.
By buying with family or friends, you can increase your budget. This could go towards a home with more bedrooms. It could mean you have a larger garden, even one with a swimming pool. Or it could get you a property closer to the beach.
If you like the idea but want a little help on how to navigate the process, download our guide on how to buy with family or friends.
