Description
In the quiet Alentejo village of Alcaria dos Javazes, in the parish of Espírito Santo, this traditional single-storey village house is ready for its next chapter. Whitewashed walls with yellow trim and a schist-stone base give it the authentic look of the region. The historic town of Mértola, with its castle and the Guadiana river, is approximately 20 minutes away by car. Here you will find shops, restaurants and everyday amenities. The house has a habitation licence and offers 88 m² of useful living space on a 200 m² plot, all on one level.
The house
Inside, the character of the Alentejo is everywhere. Tiled corridors with arches connect the rooms, and traditional beamed ceilings of cane and wood add warmth and charm. The heart of the home is the living and dining area with a large stone fireplace, perfect for cosy winter evenings. The rustic wooden kitchen, set beneath a beautiful brick arch, is equipped with a gas hob, an oven and an extractor. There are 3 bedrooms, all with air conditioning. The bathroom has both a bathtub and a shower, with a wooden vanity unit. A separate laundry area provides practical extra space.
Additional comforts & technical details
The house is equipped with air conditioning for heating and cooling, a gas boiler and a gas water heater. Water is supplied by both a borehole and the mains, and wastewater goes to a septic tank. The energy rating is F. Please note: the rustic wooden kitchen with hob, oven and extractor is included in the sale. The other furniture, including the bedroom and living room furniture, is not included.
Outside
At the front, a private patio with pergola invites you to enjoy breakfast outdoors and long dinners on warm summer evenings. A gravel yard and outdoor parking add convenience, while the open countryside views bring a real sense of space and tranquillity.
Potential
The house is ready to live in and offers plenty of scope to add your personal touch. You could refresh the interior to your own taste or create a lovely outdoor dining and lounge area under the pergola. Subject to the necessary approvals, further improvements could be explored, such as increasing the energy efficiency.
Uses
This makes it an ideal permanent home, a peaceful holiday home or an easy lock-up-and-leave retreat. It could also work as a holiday rental, subject to the required licence.
Lifestyle & location
Life here moves at a gentle pace. Think starry skies, quiet walks through the countryside and the genuine hospitality of a small Alentejo village. Mértola, one of the most remarkable heritage towns of the region on the banks of the Guadiana, is close by for culture, history and everyday needs.
