Description

This typical Alentejo farm is situated in an idyllic location, offering unobstructed views of the stunning countryside and a privileged view of one of the beautiful bathing areas surrounding Mina de São Domingos. The main house has an entrance hall, 5 bedrooms, a living room, and a kitchen with a fireplace, as well as 2 bathrooms and a private yard. The traditional Alentejo kitchen, complete with a large fireplace, is located in a separate building in the exterior space.

The exterior space of the property is also home to a garage, workshop, wood oven, and 2 compartments that potentially can be transformed into rooms or independent houses (subject to licensing). Additionally, the property has three haylofts, a water hole, and a dozen adult olive trees that provide more than enough olive oil for personal use.

One of the most appealing aspects of this property is the 800m² of free field available for planting, creating a vegetable garden, or even a small forest. The property has great potential for a caravan park and camping, with possible access to the south and north of the property.

The Mina de São Domingos area is known for its water facilities, including several bathing areas and natural pools. These areas are perfect for swimming, sunbathing, and relaxing, and are a popular attraction for locals and tourists alike. The property's privileged view of one of these bathing areas makes it even more desirable.

This property has tremendous potential for transformation into a multifaceted property connected to tourism. With potential for B&B/restaurant and/or vegetable gardens for own supply, the villa is perfect for those seeking a unique lifestyle opportunity. You can permanently live in the main house and use the outside spaces of the property to receive guests, creating a home and business all in one (subject to licensing).

Note: Owners are selling the farmhouse in current condition. All changes of destination or extension/renovation of buildings in Portugal are subject to permits. Legislation is sometimes also changeable; therefore you should find out if what you want to realize at the time of purchase is possible with this farmhouse and therefore can be permitted. For this we can advise local architects and lawyers to help you.
