A three-bedroom country house with 150,000m² of land in the Alentejo is currently offered for €1,800,000. The price includes a renovated 420m² home near Ourique, a swimming pool, tennis court and extensive equestrian infrastructure. Buyers are also acquiring a lakeside rural estate with views and private access to approximately 1.5km of waterfront. The house was built in 1999 and is arranged across one level. Each of the three bedrooms benefits from its own en-suite bathroom. Semi-open-plan living spaces open onto a broad covered terrace on two sides. From the terrace, residents can look across the low-maintenance garden and pool towards the lake. The surrounding 150,000m² gives scope for horses, farming, recreation or a private rural retreat. Fenced paddocks are already established for equestrian use. A 12-box stable block includes a grip room for day-to-day horse care. The Olympic-size sand arena is suitable for structured training and riding. Mature olive groves add character and may create an agricultural revenue stream. Two substantial ruins offer possible opportunities for future recovery, subject to planning and licensing requirements. The estate has photovoltaic panels and a battery bank for electricity. Solar hot-water panels and a wood burner with back boiler support domestic hot water. Three boreholes serve the home, stables and an area near the ruins. Ourique, with everyday amenities and a hospital, is approximately 6km away. Funcheira train station lies about 10km from the property and offers high-speed rail links to Portuguese cities.
