This unique property is a treasure, reflecting the thoughtful care and philosophy of its current owners throughout the renovation process. Originally built in 1921 and meticulously remodeled in 2019 with the expertise of an architect specializing in natural building, it showcases a harmonious blend of modern comfort and Oriental cultural influences. Spanning two floors, the ground floor was once a stable and has been transformed into a welcoming space where we enter shoeless into a cozy living room that flows seamlessly into the dining room and kitchen. A tranquil area for relaxation is nestled between the living room and dining sections, complemented by two French windows that lead to a shaded terrace overlooking the picturesque plain. A few steps down, you’ll discover an outdoor kitchen and a charming low-walled aromatic garden. To the right of the entrance, a bathroom with shower and a staircase lead to the first floor, which houses four delightful rooms: a spacious living room with a fireplace and three inviting bedrooms, two of which offer breathtaking views of the expansive plain and stunning sunsets. The ground floor features handcrafted Portuguese artisanal tiles that cover an underfloor heating system, while the upstairs living room and bedrooms boast elegant wooden parquet flooring. The property retains its character with preserved ancient wooden beams, original doors, and bespoke storage units crafted to complement the existing aesthetic. Excellent insulation is ensured through aluminum double-glazed windows, a cork layer above the ground floor ceiling, and thermal insulation on the roof. Adjacent to the house is a 10 m² outbuilding that includes a traditional semi-spherical oven, along with a water deposit for irrigation and another smaller structure for the pump near an open tank. The property benefits from a borehole and a spring, with convenient access to the main city water network. The dark and gray waters are efficiently biologically filtered through two reed beds. Above the house lies a traditional circular space known as Eira, historically used for drying cereals, while the expansive, largely wooded land of 4,125 hectares—enclosed by ancient low stone walls—features a 37,000-liter water deposit sourced from the spring, designed for automatic irrigation of a chestnut tree plantation across several terraces. The owners previously embarked on a permaculture project on the land, which has been paused since the end of 2022. This eco-friendly, rustic, and intimate property is fully equipped for modern comforts, making it an ideal retreat for nature enthusiasts. Nestled in the scenic hills surrounding the renowned medieval town of Marvão, conveniently located between Castelo de Vide and Portalegre, it stands out not only for its unique features but also for its attractive price of $350,000. Given its remarkable blend of sustainability, charm, and location, the value represented here is exceptional, offering an incredible opportunity for those seeking a serene and enriching lifestyle in a stunning natural setting.
