Leiria, Alvaiázere, Portugal

Comfortable 3-bedroom family home with fantastic views, garage, storage shed and gardens for sale.
Recently built house set over two floors. The house and garden is enclosed by a wall and two vehicle entrance gates. The owners use the door to the rear of the house as their main entrance. As we turn the corner of the house to arrive at the door, we can only appreciate the breath-taking far views into the surrounding landscape and beyond.
We enter a corridor, from which there are three doors to the right: first we have a good-sized bedroom with a window to the rear of the house. Then we have the laundry and machine room which houses the water cylinder and the solar heating panel electric elements, as well as the washing machine and kitchen unit with a double sink and wall and floor storage units. At the end of the corridor, we have a rather large bathroom with integrated storage division. There is a walk-in shower, a toilet and a vanity basin with storage cupboard underneath. This bathroom is heated by an electric wall towel rack.
On the left side of the corridor, we have first a large bedroom with plenty of space to place a large wardrobe and a window to the rear of the house. The second door on this side leads into a third bedroom, which could easily be used as an office or living room. This bedroom has a window to the garden at the side of the house.
On the left side of the corridor, we have an attractive wooden staircase leading to the first floor, which is ample space. We arrive in a spacious sun-flooded room with a beautiful wooden vaulted ceiling. The lounge area is to the left, with a triple glass door to the balcony, inviting you to admire the wonderful views while having your breakfast, meal, or a glass of wine at the table, or relaxing on the couch facing the very efficient wood burner. The wood burner creates a toasty atmosphere during the chilly winter times.
There is a corner next to the kitchen area accommodating a table and two chairs, perfect to have that quick meal on a busy day, sitting by a window looking out to the side of the house. There is also plenty of space for a large closet.
The kitchen area is divided off by a counter with drawers and shelves, providing plenty of space to place items or to use in food preparation. There is plenty of storage space both in the light-flooded kitchen and in the adjoining hall. From this hall, we have access to a bathroom with toilet and hand wash basin with storage cupboard underneath. From the hall we have also an access door to the balcony, again with fantastic views.
All the rooms have good quality double-glazed windows with insulating shutters. There is a central heating system installed with underfloor heating in the ground floor rooms, which is powered by either the solar panel or electricity. The house is about 10 years old.
Stepping out by the rear door, which is used as the main entrance door, we have a terrace with breath taking views, ideal for al fresco dining, or as a secluded workspace for online working. We have a lovely low maintenance garden, two water tanks for rainwater storage, a wooden shed for firewood and to store equipment and tools, and a large garage. The access to the garage is by the second vehicle access gate. The garage is large enough to accommodate a camper.
Next to the house, there is another garden area, which has a good number of mature olive trees and motivated to do some landscaping. There are many attractive stones on the ground which can be used to create interesting garden features, ideal to form another terrace to enjoy the fabulous views.
