Baixo Alentejo, Ourique, Portugal

A rare lakefront estate where space, silence and opportunity still exist.
There are places that are simply land and there are places that change the way you live. This is one of them.
Set directly on the edge of the Barragem Monte da Rocha, this exceptional 14.45-hectare estate offers a rare opportunity to create something truly special in one of the most peaceful and protected areas of the Alentejo.
Here, the landscape is open, the surroundings are quiet and the connection with nature is immediate. With direct lake views, complete privacy, and an atmosphere of total tranquillity, this is a property that offers not only space, but also freedom and future potential.

The Land & Ruins
The estate consists of 14.45 hectares with 4 registered ruins, offering a total registered construction area of 561.75m².
Located directly by the lake, the land includes an olive grove and benefits from two separate entrances, creating the possibility to divide the property into two independent lakeside plots, subject to the necessary approvals. This opens up further flexibility for future use and development concepts. In total, the estate offers approximately 1.5 km of private lake frontage, a truly rare feature in this region.
The ruins create a unique opportunity for redevelopment into additional homes, guest accommodation, or a private retreat in an exceptional natural setting.

Properties with registered building potential in such a privileged waterfront location are becoming increasingly rare in the Alentejo, making this an opportunity with both lifestyle and long-term investment value.

Outdoor & Equestrian Facilities
The outdoor space is defined by silence, nature and uninterrupted views across the lake and surrounding countryside.
The property already includes extensive equestrian facilities with 10 horse boxes, a saddlery room, internal and external wash areas, a sand arena and connected paddocks.
The existing infrastructure makes the estate ideal for private equestrian use or for buyers looking for a property with space, flexibility, and multiple possibilities for the future.

The Area
Located just a short drive from Ourique, the property combines complete privacy with easy access to supermarkets, restaurants, healthcare services and transport connections.
Set within a protected natural area, the surroundings remain preserved and untouched, ensuring long-term tranquillity and natural beauty.
This is more than land alone. It is a rare chance to secure space, lakefront living, and development potential in a part of Portugal where opportunities like this are becoming harder and harder to find.
