Madeira's mild climate, Atlantic views and dramatic scenery have long made it a popular destination for those looking to buy property in Portugal. Like the Algarve, it offers coastal homes in a range of locations, although the island's mountainous setting gives it a very different character.
The island offers plenty of variety when it comes to housing, from apartments in central Funchal to larger homes in quieter coastal towns. Location can make a considerable difference to what your budget buys, both within Madeira and compared with the mainland.
We've selected six properties for sale in Madeira, with prices starting from €310,000, to give buyers an idea of what's available across the island.

The building is also just a short walk from Plaza Shopping Centre and other local amenities. Its layout could suit a long-term rental strategy or other accommodation uses, subject to the necessary permissions.
