Yes, an Alentejo horse farm is for sale on a picturesque peninsula of Lake Monte da Rocha near Ourique. Priced at €1,200,000, the 14.45-hectare estate combines a fully equipped equestrian complex with approximately 1.5 kilometres of private waterfront. It offers an unusual opportunity to buy a working horse property in a secluded lakeside setting. The holding includes 11 loose boxes in concrete ring beam construction and an American Barn layout. The stable complex measures approximately 900 square metres and is supported by interlinking fenced paddocks. Horses can benefit from field shelters and piped water throughout the internal areas. Training facilities comprise a sand riding school and an internationally sized grass jumping arena. A grip room, workshop and interior and exterior washing areas add convenience for owners and trainers. The perimeter is fully fenced, with two plots accessed through independent entrance gateways. The land also contains a productive olive grove with around 400 trees. Two large licensed ruins beside the lake provide scope for future rebuilding, subject to planning approval and environmental regulations. The licensed construction area is 314 square metres divided into seven licensed divisions. The existing agricultural building provides 248 square metres and five divisions. A borehole, septic tank, generator and photovoltaic system support the rural infrastructure. The National Ecological Reserve setting protects the natural character of the peninsula and should be considered carefully by prospective purchasers. The lake views and wildlife create a compelling backdrop for an equestrian lifestyle. Ourique, approximately 6 kilometres away, offers schools, a local market and everyday commercial and social amenities. Funcheira railway station is about 10 kilometres away, and Faro International Airport is approximately 100 kilometres from the estate.
