For buyers seeking an Alentejo rural tourism investment near the coast, this 185,096 m² estate near São Teotónio offers an unusually versatile layout. It is for sale at €780,000 and lies around 18 km from Zambujeira do Mar and its beaches. Two independent accommodation areas create a strong basis for private use, guest stays or a boutique rural retreat, subject to planning and tourism approvals. The main house provides three bedrooms, while the separate cottage adds two further bedrooms. In total, the property has five bedrooms and three bathrooms across approximately 274 m² of living area. The main dwelling’s open-plan kitchen and lounge are arranged within a distinctive hexagonal timber structure. Covered balconies circle the upper floor and provide views over the gardens and woods. Guests can enjoy an elevated pool beside the main house and a second private round pool at the cottage. Landscaped gardens, fruit trees and a vegetable patch reinforce the appeal of an authentic countryside experience. Two year-round natural ponds add visual interest and a tranquil setting for outdoor relaxation. The extensive plot includes cork trees and eucalyptus in harvesting stage, potentially adding long-term land value subject to management considerations. A 30 m² workshop and additional storage can support maintenance, storage or future hospitality operations. The property also benefits from private parking, terraces, wells and a 5,000-litre water reservoir. São Teotónio is approximately 6 km away, providing local amenities and convenient access to services. Faro Airport is about 103 km from the estate, helping overseas guests and owners reach the property. The nearby Alentejo coastline is known for beaches, nature and outdoor activities that can support seasonal visitor demand. Buyers should independently verify licensing, planning status, cottage registration and the feasibility of any rural tourism model. Rental income, occupancy and ROI will depend on approvals, management, marketing and operating costs rather than being guaranteed.
