Located near Ourique in the southern Alentejo, it combines a three-bedroom country house with a substantial horse facility.

A semi-open-plan layout connects the living areas with a large covered terrace on two sides. Views extend across the landscaped garden and 12 x 6 metre swimming pool towards the lake. The rear of the house overlooks the olive grove and paddocks. Equestrian facilities include a 12-box stable block, a tack or grip room and extensive fenced grazing areas. The Olympic-size arena provides space for training, schooling and professional equestrian activities. Private waterfront access adds opportunities for leisure, relaxation and distinctive rural tourism experiences. Two large ruins on the land could potentially be recovered, subject to the necessary permissions. The organic-standard olive groves may provide an additional agricultural income stream.
