Traditional Stone Cottage with Land near Serpins

This pretty detached
stone cottage is situated in a tranquil location, close to the River beach at
Serpins. The extensive flat land to the rear of the house is bordered by a
stream and has 2 wells, 2 stone outbuildings, mature olive trees and an
orchard.

This traditional
stone cottage has an attractive walled courtyard to the rear featuring a mature
Wisteria, slate floors and a large covered outdoor kitchen area (60m2) with bread/pizza
oven and BBQ, perfect for entertaining! This area could easily be converted to provide
additional living accommodation.

The house is currently
an open plan design with a large lounge/dining area (60m2) with wood burner,
kitchenette with sink, granite worktops and gas hob and separate bathroom on
the ground floor. The thick stone walls keep the house warm in the winter and
cool in the summer months. A wooden internal staircase leads to the first floor
bedroom (60m2) with wooden floors and vaulted beamed ceiling. A door leads
directly from the bedroom out on to a covered wooden balcony with stunning
views over the land to the rear. External stone steps lead from the balcony down
into the private walled courtyard. The property has no mains electric however
the current owner has obtained a quote of approx. 2000€ to connect the house to
the main supply. Electricity is currently supplied by a generator.

A further covered
terrace (45m2) to the side of the property features two farm carts which are
included in the sale. The 10000 m2 of flat land extends to the rear of the
house and includes several mature Olive trees, various fruit trees, and two deep
wells for year round irrigation. The stream bordering the land flows in to the
river at Serpins.

The current
footprint of the house is approximately 60m2 however the plot extends to 1900m2
of urban land which means it may be possible to extend the property further
(subject to the relevant planning permission). Within the land there are 2 separate
stone buildings, one houses a generator the other is a large wood store (48m2).
This property would make a fantastic holiday home or for anyone looking to
increase its potential the current owner has had plans prepared for an exciting
rural tourism project to include 6 separate rental units and a swimming pool.

The house is
located in a peaceful and picturesque region of central Portugal, close to the
popular village of Serpins. The area is popular with tourists who are attracted
to the natural river beach which provides a safe, family friendly, fresh water
swimming pool with cafe, BBQ areas and shaded play areas. Serpins provides a
good selection of local facilities including a supermarket, post office, petrol
station, indoor sports hall, pharmacy, butchers, cafes and bakeries. The larger
towns of Lousa and Vila Nova de Poiares are close by and offer all other
amenities including schools, health centres, banks, restaurants, vets etc. Access
to this area is due to be improved by the addition of a new road link from
Lousa to Gois.
