In the woods just outside of the medieval town of Vigeois, lies this exceptional 4-bedroom property, built against a rock face. The house overlooks a charming bridge and a peaceful river that winds below. The private garden and forests flank the property on both sides of the river. One side of the garden, terraced against the rock, features a unique amphitheatre in Greek/roman style with breathtaking views of the water and surrounding woodlands.
Inside, the house exudes heritage and craftsmanship.
On ground level: the grand entrance hall features a characteristic fireplace as well as a wood-burning stove, the main room with open-plan fitted kitchen, dining area, Persian inspired seating area, and a beautiful fireplace with historic stone elements; WC and washbasin. Marble floors accentuate the home’s artistic charm, and the well-placed windows offer wonderful views over the river below and the natural surroundings.
First floor: 4 bedrooms, and a shower room. Each with its own antique wooden features, and with exposed beams throughout.
On the ground floor, a door connects the main house to an attached, but self-contained, wing that used to be a barn. It comprises an entrance hall, professional kitchen, and a separate floor space with a mezzanine floor. Accessible from the public road yet separated from the main house by an internal door and an external gate, this versatile wing opens up a world of possibilities.
A unique property with character and charm, it is perfect for a family seeking a permanent or vacation home. Yet its potential extends even further: the professional kitchen and adaptable wing make it equally suited for a variety of entrepreneurial ventures, be it a restaurant, guesthouse, therapist’s clinic, or a venue for weddings or private events.
