The asking budget for this 440,125 m² productive rural estate in Alentejo is €1,500,000, before purchase costs, taxes, professional fees and any future works. Located in the Serpa area, the property combines an operating agricultural estate with a renovated three-bedroom Monte Alentejano. Buyers seeking a substantial Portuguese country property should also budget for due diligence, legal advice, transfer taxes and ongoing land management. The fully fenced estate provides extensive privacy and a substantial scale rarely found close to established towns and leisure destinations. Its productive landscape includes 22 hectares of cork oak, 14 hectares of irrigated carob trees and 8 hectares of arbutus trees. Olive trees are planted around the entrance route and complement the rural character of the land. Water infrastructure includes two boreholes and two storage deposits with capacities of approximately 10,000 and 120,000 litres. A dam with waterproofing canvas installed in 2025 provides further support for agricultural use. Automated irrigation serves the complete garden and carob plantation, reducing the need for manual watering. The principal residence sits on the hilltop and offers panoramic views across the Alentejo countryside. Accommodation comprises three bedrooms, one en-suite, a living room, an open-plan fully fitted kitchen, a family bathroom and a separate WC. The home was renovated in 2001 and includes double glazing, a fireplace, terraces and outdoor parking. A detached building adds a lounge, dining room, barbecue, oven and kitchenette for social gatherings or flexible use. The adjoining annex could potentially be renovated into up to 12 additional rooms, increasing the stated total room potential to 16. Planning permission, construction compliance and any future tourism licensing should be confirmed before committing to a renovation budget. The 340 m² construction area offers a useful framework for assessing accommodation, agricultural support or extended family requirements. Tapada Grande da Mina de São Domingos river beach is approximately 16 km away, offering an attractive lifestyle feature. Serpa, with its everyday services, is about 29 km from the estate, while Mértola’s historic centre is approximately 33 km away. The southern coast is around 106 km away, with Faro Airport approximately 160 km distant. Potential rental, rural tourism or agricultural returns should be modelled using verified local market data rather than assumed ROI figures.
