Beira Litoral, Penela, Portugal

This lovely property retains all of its original charm but has been upgraded to provide a very comfortable home for modern day living. It is located in a popular little village only 8 minutes drive from the centre of the pretty little town of Penela.
A large sliding metal gate gives access to the parking area in front of the house. To the left is a large log store. There is also an outdoor kitchen with a BBQ and a bread oven and next to this is another store room/tool shed and a separate laundry/utility room.
Entry to the house is via a glass panelled door which leads into a spacious open plan lounge and dining room which has a wonderful new vaulted ceiling with some built in loft storage. The living area has two windows and patio doors leading to the garden ensuring a bright, light filled space. A large modern log burner provides effective heating during cooler winter evenings. The dining area has space for a 6 seater dining table and a remote control infra red wall panel provides further heating.
An open doorway leads from the dining area to the new Nolte fitted kitchen which has base & wall units, marble effect wooden worktops and splashbacks and a black stylish large single metal sink. The integrated appliances include a fridge/freezer, a dishwasher and a fan assisted oven (all Teka), a hob with a vortex extractor (Bora) and a gas hot water boiler. The windows are dual aspect.
Two steps lead from the dining area to a hallway which gives access to the 2 bedrooms and the large bathroom.
Bedroom 1 is a spacious double with a window overlooking the garden, a remote control infra red wall panel provides heating if required.
Bedroom 2 is a smaller double with a window overlooking the garden and pool area. There is a recessed storage area suitable for a hanging rail/drawer unit.
The bathroom is fully tiled and has a bath with an overhead shower, a large sink with a vanity unit and a wc. There is plenty of space in the bathroom for units to store towels etc.
All of the ceilings in this part of the property are white painted wood with beams, the floors throughout the property are terracotta.
The roof is new with several layers of quality insulation.
To the side of the house is a covered dining area (the sellers had considered converting this to a 3rd bedroom), there is also a lovely little sheltered seating/dining area in front of the house.
The garden is large, private and fully enclosed with many fruit & nut trees and mature flowering trees and shrubs.
The pool is 9m x 4.5m with a paved terrace for sun loungers and comes with both winter & summer covers. The stunning fully tiled pool house has a changing area with a shower, a sink with a vanity unit and a wc.
