A country house with a private 14-metre pool in South Alentejo is offered here at €649,000. The Garvão property includes four bedrooms, three bathrooms, approximately 200 m² of living area and 2.5 hectares of land. It provides a rare combination of a substantial private plot, wide rural views and a large 7 by 14 metre swimming pool. Buyers seeking a South Alentejo home can use the property as a main residence, holiday retreat or rental opportunity. The house has traditional character but requires renovation, allowing purchasers to update it according to their priorities. Its open-plan kitchen and spacious living room form the heart of the accommodation. Patio doors connect the interior with a huge covered terrace overlooking the countryside. A master bedroom with en-suite facilities adds privacy for owners or guests. The remaining bedrooms benefit from direct access to the outside areas. Air conditioning is installed throughout the house for year-round convenience. A log burner provides an additional source of warmth during the cooler season. Double-glazed wooden windows, shutters and fly screens combine period appeal with practical functionality. The tiled private pool includes lighting, a shower and a manual cover. The landscaped and natural garden areas feature lawns, fruit trees, olive trees and arbutus trees. A barbecue area creates an attractive setting for outdoor dining and relaxed summer gatherings. The land also includes a small dam and an automatic irrigation system. Utilities include mains electricity, solar electricity and a borehole, although the borehole is not officially registered. Garvão is approximately 1 km away, with Ourique around 13 km from the property. The Funcheira train station is about 4 km away, with rail connections to Lisbon and Faro.
