Description

The House
This charming Monte Alentejo farmhouse offers 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, featuring rustic-style flooring with traditional Santa Catarina tiles throughout. The main house has 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom, while the 3rd bedroom is in a cosy annex with its own living space and fireplace. This annex is part of the main house but can be closed off with a door, making it perfect for renting out separately. The house also has double-glazed windows, a fully equipped kitchen with a small pantry, and a spacious living room with a large fireplace and wood burner.

Outdoor
In front of the house, there’s a lovely open patio with a BBQ area and a pizza oven, ideal for outdoor dining and relaxation. The property sits on 6.9 hectares of land, offering plenty of space for keeping animals, farming, or even starting a rural B&B.


About the Area
This property is situated in the municipality (concelho) of Mértola, part of the stunning Alentejo region. Mértola, often called the “museum village,” is a historic riverside town on the Guadiana River, famous for its unique blend of Moorish, Roman, and Christian heritage. Its medieval castle, charming whitewashed streets, and archaeological treasures make it one of Portugal’s most fascinating destinations.

The surrounding countryside belongs to the Guadiana Valley Natural Park, a protected area offering exceptional opportunities for outdoor activities such as hiking, cycling, birdwatching, hunting, and stargazing. The region is also known for traditional farming, olive groves, vineyards, and cork production, making it attractive for those interested in agriculture or rural tourism projects.

While enjoying the tranquillity of nature, the property remains well connected:

Around 30 minutes from Beja, with its historical center, services, and airport.

Easy access south towards the Algarve coast.

Close to the Spanish border, opening possibilities for cross-border travel and commerce.

This location offers an authentic Alentejo lifestyle — peaceful, rich in history, and surrounded by natural beauty — ideal for a permanent home, holiday retreat, or investment in rural tourism.

This is a unique opportunity to own a farmhouse in the peaceful Alentejo countryside with modern comforts and traditional charm. Don't miss out on making this your dream home!
