The 1,986 m² renovation and investment project in Alentejo is priced at €2,800,000. That price includes the country estate, its buildings and the approved project, but excludes construction and renovation costs. For buyers assessing a large rural development, the property combines significant land ownership with an established hospitality concept near Mértola. The fenced estate covers approximately 82,033 m². Around 1,986 m² of living and construction area is distributed across the main house and several outbuildings. There are 30 rooms in total and the approved accommodation plans include 18 superior-quality suites. The project is designed for a boutique resort with hotel accommodation, a spa, wine bar and restaurant facilities. A 450 m² covered service centre is also included in the architectural proposal. The main house, dating from the 1920s, retains a palatial character and is partly renovated. Its basement currently operates as a wine-tasting bar and shop. Cellars, storage rooms, service areas and a wine cellar provide useful operational infrastructure. A chapel with Portuguese tiles offers a memorable feature for events, weddings and retreats. The large courtyard and U-shaped building arrangement could create a strong arrival and communal experience. Outdoor terraces, gardens, water features, trees and countryside views add lifestyle value for future guests. The pool needs renovation, creating an opportunity to redesign the leisure offer around the approved concept. Water resources include two boreholes, a cistern and rainwater collection, while solar panels serve two boreholes. A drip irrigation system supports the garden areas and rural landscaping. Approximately 50 parking spaces are available behind the entrance gates. The nearest village with restaurants is about 3 km away, and Mértola and Beja are approximately 29 km and 25 km away. Buyers should undertake detailed construction, planning, operating and financial assessments before committing to the project.
