Charming Renovated 5-Bedroom detached House with Garden, Terrace & Expansion Potential in Colos, Cardigos, Central Portugal

This beautifully renovated detached home offers 5 spacious bedrooms and 2 fully updated modern bathrooms, all refurbished in 2023.
At the heart of the home is a bright, open-plan living room and kitchen area measuring 45m², featuring a large wood-burning stove with built-in oven – perfect for cozy winter days, keeping a stew cooking or tea on draft. An additional fireplace adds even more warmth and ambiance. The ceiling was newly insulated this year for improved energy efficiency.
Outdoor Space:
Surrounding the house is a fenced courtyard and an additional plot just across the road. Both areas are planted with fruit trees, olive trees, and even Aloe Vera. Each plot has its own water borehole, in addition to mains water and electricity connections, ready to be planted with berries and vegetables to create a self-sufficient food jungle.
Energy Efficiency:
Solar panels have been installed to reduce energy costs, and both the entrance gate and built-in BBQ are brand new – creating the perfect setting for relaxing summer afternoons on the spacious veranda sipping a glass of delicious wine, enjoying the sun going down or having friends over for a party.
