Offered for €2,950,000, it is located in Santa Clara-a-Velha beside the dam of the Mira River in Alentejo. With 16 bedrooms, 12 bathrooms and 441m² of living space, the property is equipped for substantial guest accommodation. The total plot measures approximately 575,000m², making it a highly private rural holding. The reception rooms could be used for dining, socialising, workshops, yoga or business events. A professional kitchen provides the infrastructure for guest meals, retreats and hospitality services. Lakeside activities can form a distinctive part of the visitor experience, subject to local regulations and operational planning. Outbuildings add further flexibility for storage, staff use, accommodation or multi-purpose functions. Solar panels and a generator support energy autonomy and may help reduce reliance on external power supplies. The property also benefits from water from the dam for irrigation and filtered domestic use. Its natural surroundings include greenery, valleys, rolling hills and panoramic countryside and lake views. The location is suited to wellness concepts involving yoga, sauna, massage and healthy organic food. Nature lovers can enjoy a secluded environment for relaxation, contemplation and observing local fauna and flora. Buyers may operate the guesthouse as a rural tourism venue, retreat centre or family-run hospitality business, subject to approvals. The extensive grounds could support walking routes, outdoor activities and nature-based visitor experiences. Santa Clara-a-Velha station lies around 16km away, with daily rail connections towards Lisbon and Faro. The Atlantic coast and its beaches are approximately 52km away, helping combine inland tranquillity with coastal excursions. Faro is about 103km away and Lisbon approximately 215km away. Its accommodation capacity and unusual lakeside setting create potential for rental income and tourism investment, but financial performance will depend on the business plan.
