Domain Du Lac is an Alentejo country estate available for €1,995,000 with a private lake, a substantial pine plantation and clear rural tourism potential. Buyers seeking a diversified investment can acquire 122 hectares near Mértola, including accommodation, event space and recreational facilities. The estate combines lifestyle use with possible income streams from accommodation, group activities, events and future pine-nut production. Approximately 100,000 pine trees are in the growth phase, with the first harvest anticipated in 2027. The private lake covers 50,000 square metres and supports fishing, canoeing, swimming and other water activities. A boat for aquatic sports is included in the sale. Four independent bungalows provide additional guest accommodation, with two- and three-bedroom configurations, kitchens and private terraces. Their licensing is in the final phase, which may assist buyers planning a tourism operation subject to the necessary approvals. The three-bedroom main house has an open-plan kitchen and living room with views across the pool and lake. Its 9 by 4 metre saltwater infinity pool adds a premium lifestyle feature for owners and guests. A licensed 268 square metre pavilion can accommodate around 150 people for corporate events, celebrations and group programmes. Professional catering facilities, screens, sound equipment, parking and a large barbecue area enhance its commercial versatility. Motorhome infrastructure creates another opportunity for attracting nature-focused visitors. Fenced land and maintained access routes allow hiking, motocross and mountain biking within the estate. Solar water heating, photovoltaic systems, two boreholes and extensive water pipes support day-to-day infrastructure. The location is approximately 25 minutes from Mértola, Almodôvar and the Guadiana River. Golf and Algarve beaches are within about 60 minutes, and Faro International Airport is around 80 minutes away. A planned Africa Safari Park Theme Park is approximately 15 minutes away and forms part of the region's approved tourism infrastructure. While returns will depend on operation, licensing, occupancy and market conditions, the property's varied assets offer scope for a tailored investment strategy.
