This 14.45-hectare lakefront equestrian property in Portugal is offered for €1,200,000. It occupies a private peninsula on Lake Monte da Rocha in the Alentejo and includes around 1.5 kilometres of private waterfront. For buyers comparing large equestrian estates in Portugal, the asking price reflects substantial land, operational facilities and licensed rebuilding potential. The estate is divided into two plots with independent entrance gateways. Its equestrian centre includes 11 loose boxes arranged in an American Barn configuration of approximately 900 m². A sand training school and internationally sized grass jumping arena provide dedicated riding facilities. Paddocks are connected by internal fencing and supplied with field shelters and piped water. Horse owners also have access to interior and exterior cleaning areas. A grip room and workshop support the day-to-day management of horses and equipment. The property includes an agricultural building measuring approximately 248 m². Licensed construction totals 314 m² across seven licensed divisions. Two large licensed ruins beside the lake can be rebuilt, subject to planning and nature protection requirements. Around 400 olive trees create a productive agricultural element and enhance the estate’s Alentejo character. The entire perimeter is fenced, offering controlled access for horses, residents and visitors. A borehole, septic tank, generator and photovoltaic system are listed among the property’s infrastructure. The location sits within the National Ecological Reserve, so any future project must respect applicable environmental and planning regulations. Ourique, 6 kilometres away, provides schools, shops, a local market and community services. Medical provision is available in the wider area, including a 24-hour medical attendance unit in Castro Verde approximately 15 kilometres away. Funcheira railway station is around 10 kilometres from the estate, and Faro International Airport is approximately 100 kilometres away. The South West Coast beaches can be reached within roughly 62 kilometres. Its combination of equestrian facilities, olive production and private lake frontage may offer rental, retreat or specialist equestrian business potential, but projected returns require independent assessment.
