The asking price for 14.45 hectares with an equestrian centre near Ourique is €1,200,000. This budget covers a fully fenced Alentejo estate beside Monte da Rocha Lake, rather than undeveloped rural land alone. Buyers acquire two plots with independent entrances and approximately 1.5 km of private waterfront. The estate includes an established equestrian complex with 11 loose boxes. The American Barn-style stable structure measures approximately 900 m² and is built with a concrete ring beam configuration. An internationally sized grass jumping arena is included for advanced training. A sand riding training school provides an additional facility for lessons and schooling. Paddocks are interconnected and supplied with field shelters and piped water. A workshop, grip room and horse-cleaning areas support the practical running of the centre. Around 400 olive trees add productive agricultural potential to the purchase. Two large licensed ruins are positioned alongside the lake and may be rebuilt, subject to planning permissions and environmental requirements. The licensed construction area totals 314 m², with seven licensed divisions recorded. A 248 m² agricultural building with five divisions is also part of the property details. The land is situated within the National Ecological Reserve, which protects the natural setting but affects future development considerations. Buyers should also allow for acquisition taxes, legal costs, due diligence, maintenance and any planned renovation or operating expenditure. Ourique is approximately 6 km away and offers schools, a local market and commercial and social amenities. Funcheira Train Station is around 10 km from the estate, providing an alternative regional transport connection. South West Coast beaches are about 62 km away, while Faro International Airport is approximately 100 km distant. Potential income could come from equestrian services, olive production or carefully planned rural accommodation, although returns are not guaranteed and require feasibility assessment. The proposed connection between the Alqueva Dam and Monte da Rocha reservoir is scheduled in the property information for completion by the end of 2025 and may support more consistent water levels.
