Housing
Algarve’s Lagoa clears way for 520 affordable homes
Lagoa Council approved a planning change on 20 October to reclassify 12 hectares of rural land at Calvário, in Estômbar and Parchal, into urban land using a simplified municipal master plan procedure. The project aims to accommodate up to 743 properties built through private investment, with at least 70% of the construction area (520 homes) dedicated to affordable or controlled-cost housing, alongside new infrastructure and road widening. Approval of the land reclassification is an early planning stage, and future development remains subject to further construction procedures.
