Villa Extramuros – Country House with Tourist Potential in the Heart of Alentejo
Villa Extramuros is a unique property located in the “golden triangle” of Central Alentejo — between Montemor-o-Novo, Évora and Estremoz — just 1 hour and 15 minutes from Lisbon and 20 km from Évora, a city classified as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Situated on the southern slopes of Arraiolos, in the heart of the vegetable gardens and away from the roads, this farm combines absolute privacy, panoramic views and a landscape of great beauty, surrounded by centuries-old olive trees on 5 hectares of land. Its proximity to the village offers easy access to shops, services and amenities.
A Country House with History and Recognition
Currently used for rural tourism and recently awarded a Michelin Key, the property retains all the conditions to continue this activity or to be converted into a prestigious private residence.
Inspired by convent architecture, the white villages of the Alentejo and ancient Roman structures, the building makes use of noble materials such as Estremoz marble, whitewashed walls and cork, blending harmoniously into the landscape.
