Description
property, whose exemplary restoration has preserved the original character of the building, dating from the final quarter of the 18th century, while harmoniously blending historical architectural and decorative elements with contemporary solutions for comfort and elegance. The architectural project was led by renowned architect Manuel Aires Mateus, winner of the Pessoa Prize in 2017, and the interior design was developed by L’Èléphant Interiors. The result is a delicate
balance between antique furniture and modern design pieces, creating a sober, welcoming, and timeless atmosphere. This palace has been carefully adapted into a charming guesthouse, currently offering 10 bedrooms — all with private en-suite bathrooms — distributed between the main house and an independent one-bedroom
apartment (formerly the coachman’s house and stables), with a separate entrance from Rua da Figueira. The property also features a delightful private garden of 213 m², with a swimming pool, lawn, and leisure areas. The renovation was carried out to the highest standards, using noble and efficient materials: the entire roof was rebuilt with thermal and acoustic insulation, the original wooden window frames have
been preserved and fitted with double glazing, and the building is equipped with central heating, complemented by the original fireplaces. With a gross construction area of 1,510 m² on a 714 m²plot, this project was co-financed by Turismo de Portugal under the Portugal
2020 programme. This property represents a rare opportunity on the
market, combining heritage value, a prime location, architectural quality, and exceptional tourism potential in the Alentejo region.
