Alto Alentejo, Alpalhão, Portugal

Casa das Andorinhas – An authentic refuge in the heart of Alentejo

In the center of the picturesque village of Alpalhão, in the heart of Alto Alentejo, is the charming Casa das Andorinhas — an old farmhouse of wealthy farmers, carefully restored and transformed into a cozy rural accommodation where tradition and comfort go hand in hand.

Here, time slows down. The serenity of the landscape, the sounds of nature and the typical Alentejo architecture create the perfect setting for a peaceful life or to provide unique experiences for those seeking the true spirit of the Portuguese countryside.

With 6 spacious and bright bedrooms, distributed in 16 functional rooms, this house currently offers all the conditions for a rural tourism project or a family home with soul. Some of the rooms offer panoramic views of the village — an invitation to start the day with inspiration. The house also has 6 bathrooms, 3 equipped kitchens, free Wi-Fi and a secretarial area, ideal for teleworking or receiving guests.

Outside, the charm continues: a vast garden of around 2,000 m², two wells and around 80 fruit trees offer an oasis of shade, freshness and contact with the earth. There is also a sun terrace and green spaces that invite you to contemplate, read or enjoy moments of leisure under the Alentejo sky.

Common spaces, such as the shared kitchen and lounge, create a welcoming and family-friendly atmosphere, perfect for socializing among guests. As a complement, the property offers free private parking, airport transfers and a bicycle rental service, which reinforces its potential as a local accommodation unit.

The location is strategic: just a few meters from the IP2 and with easy access to historical destinations such as Nisa, Portalegre, Castelo de Vide, Marvão, Alter do Chão and even the border with Spain. In the surrounding area, you will find everything you need: supermarkets, pharmacy, typical restaurants, library, laundry, playground, sports center and the charming Alpalhão House Museum.

With a value of €265,000, Casa das Andorinhas represents a rare opportunity: a property with identity, ready to welcome new life or tourism projects, in one of the most authentic settings in Portugal.

If you dream of a home where every corner tells a story, where tranquility is an affordable luxury and where you can truly feel at home — then this is the place.
