A large agricultural plot with two wells in the Alentejo is currently offered for sale at €548,000. The 558,000m² holding near Ourique provides water access, fertile land and possible building potential linked to agricultural use. For buyers comparing rural land prices in Portugal, the asking price includes the plot but excludes construction costs. This sizeable property is arranged in two sections divided by a road. The layout may offer flexibility for separate agricultural use or a possible future division, subject to official approval. The land contains many holm oaks, pasture and areas suitable for agricultural activity. A small stream runs along one boundary and contributes to the attractive landscape. There are two wells, with one described as having abundant water on the smaller section. The other well provides sufficient water for a household on the larger plot. The water resources may support cultivation, livestock or rural living, although buyers should complete their own technical checks. Building a home is not automatic and must be verified with Câmara Municipal de Ourique. Local guidance indicates that an agricultural owner’s residence could potentially extend to 500m². Additional support buildings of up to 500m² may also be possible under the stated conditions. A future PDM revision could allow up to 1,000m² for tourism, subject to planning consent. This creates potential for an agro-tourism scheme, rural accommodation or an agricultural enterprise. The plot has tarmac-road access and nearby electricity and telephone lines. Ourique is only about 4km away and offers supermarkets, restaurants, cafés, banks, a school and other services. The coast at Vila Nova de Milfontes is roughly 65km away.

This beautiful plot of land in the lower Alentejo is divided into two parts by the road giving the possibility to make two separate plots. Because the land is larger than 5ha the town hall has said that a house could be built if the property was being used for some type of agriculture, keeping sheep or planting produce for example. It is likely also that permission could be obtained to do an agro-tourism project.
There is a well with abundant water on the 11ha part of the plot and another well which gives enough water for a household on the larger plot.
If a new owner wished to separate the two plots, then the possibility is that a house could be built on each one. This must be verified with the town hall.
The town of Ourique is close by and has restaurants, cafés, shops, supermarkets, banks, post office, church, school, etc.
After consultation with the official entities ( Câmara Municipal de Ourique) a house for owner’s habitation, subject to the registration as agriculture, can go up to 500 m2 and additionally 500 m2 for support buildings. After PDM revision additionally 1000 m2 can be built for Tourism.
