The Alentejo property for sale that combines an equestrian centre with 1.5 kilometres of private Monte da Rocha shoreline is this 14.45-hectare country estate near Ourique. Offered at €1,200,000, it places extensive horse facilities and private lake access within one fully fenced holding. The estate occupies a picturesque peninsula with wide countryside and lake views. Its equestrian centre provides approximately 900 m² of American Barn-style accommodation and 11 loose boxes. Riders can use a sand training school and an internationally sized grass jumping arena. Internally fenced paddocks connect the land and include field shelters with piped water. A grip room, workshop and horse cleaning areas support professional daily operations. Independent entrance gateways serve the two plots, helping separate access and activities across the estate. The land also contains around 400 productive olive trees. Two large licensed ruins sit beside the lake and offer potential for rebuilding after the necessary planning and environmental checks. The licensed construction area is 314 m², with seven licensed divisions recorded. A further 248 m² agricultural building with five divisions adds useful storage or operational space. The National Ecological Reserve setting offers exceptional natural surroundings, although development must comply with nature protection regulations. The private shoreline could enhance a personal retreat, equestrian destination or carefully managed rural tourism concept. Such uses may provide investment potential, but buyers should obtain independent advice on permissions, demand and projected returns. A borehole supplies water, while distribution piping, photovoltaic equipment, a generator and septic tank are among the listed infrastructure. Ourique is approximately 6 kilometres away with schools, shops, a local market and community facilities. Funcheira Train Station is about 10 kilometres away for regional connections. The South West Coast beaches are within approximately 62 kilometres, and Faro International Airport is around 100 kilometres distant. A planned connection between the Alqueva Dam and Monte da Rocha reservoir is intended to reinforce regional water resources, with completion noted for the end of 2025.
