The budget required for this 7.5-hectare Alentejo retreat with a private pool is €795,000. That price includes a renovated four-bedroom country house near Ourique, approximately 75,000 m² of fenced land and a separate 76 m² outbuilding. The property offers a substantial rural holding for buyers planning a family residence, holiday home or countryside investment. Approximately 233 m² of living area provides room for comfortable full-time or seasonal occupation. The single-storey house contains four bedrooms and four bathrooms. Three bedrooms benefit from en-suite bathrooms, while a further family bathroom serves the rest of the home. A private 10 by 5 metre pool adds considerable lifestyle value during the warmer months. Terraces, a landscaped garden, fruit trees, cork trees and a covered barbecue kitchen extend the living space outdoors. The home was constructed in 2008 and renovated in 2024 and 2026. An open-plan living kitchen, conservatory and lounge with wood burner create a flexible interior arrangement. Air conditioning throughout, electric heating and solar electricity help manage comfort and household use. The fitted kitchen is supported by a pantry and practical utility spaces. A borehole, mains electricity, septic tank and electric boiler provide important country-property infrastructure. The fenced land can accommodate horses, livestock, gardening or agricultural projects, subject to the applicable permissions. The additional building can be used for a garage, workshop, storage facility or equipment shelter. Ourique is approximately 10 km away with restaurants, a hospital and essential amenities. Beja is around 40 minutes by car, while the Algarve and west coast are approximately one hour away. Santa Clara Reservoir and nearby river beaches offer leisure opportunities for owners and potential guests. The land and existing buildings may support future rental or rural tourism income, but buyers should verify projected returns and approvals independently.
