For buyers seeking Alentejo property for sale with land, wells and agro-tourism potential, this 558,000m² Ourique plot is a compelling option. The asking price is €548,000 for the land, excluding the cost of constructing any building. Its scale, water supply and rural setting create a versatile base for an agricultural or tourism-led investment. Situated only 4km from Ourique, the property combines countryside privacy with access to essential amenities. The landscape contains fertile land, pasture and numerous mature holm oaks. A small stream forms part of the boundary on one side. Two wells provide valuable on-site water resources for agricultural activity and domestic use. The well on the 11-hectare section is described as having abundant water. A second well on the larger section provides sufficient water for a household. The plot is split into two parts by a tarmac road, which may support a future subdivision subject to approval. Each section could potentially offer an independent project, although this must be verified with the municipality. Local authority consultation indicates that an owner’s home connected to registered agriculture may be possible. Such a home could reach up to 500m², subject to the applicable planning rules. Up to another 500m² may be available for support buildings linked to the agricultural use. Following PDM revision, the information suggests that up to 1,000m² could potentially be developed for tourism. This may appeal to buyers considering rural accommodation, retreats or an agro-tourism venture. No rental income or guaranteed return is provided, so any ROI assessment should be based on a detailed feasibility study. Tarmac access is already available, and nearby electricity and telephone lines may simplify future connections. Ourique offers supermarkets, shops, restaurants, cafés, banks, a school and other daily services. The Algarve is readily accessible by road, with Lisbon around 190km away and Vila Nova de Milfontes beach approximately 65km away.

This beautiful plot of land in the lower Alentejo is divided into two parts by the road giving the possibility to make two separate plots. Because the land is larger than 5ha the town hall has said that a house could be built if the property was being used for some type of agriculture, keeping sheep or planting produce for example. It is likely also that permission could be obtained to do an agro-tourism project.
There is a well with abundant water on the 11ha part of the plot and another well which gives enough water for a household on the larger plot.
If a new owner wished to separate the two plots, then the possibility is that a house could be built on each one. This must be verified with the town hall.
The town of Ourique is close by and has restaurants, cafés, shops, supermarkets, banks, post office, church, school, etc.
After consultation with the official entities ( Câmara Municipal de Ourique) a house for owner’s habitation, subject to the registration as agriculture, can go up to 500 m2 and additionally 500 m2 for support buildings. After PDM revision additionally 1000 m2 can be built for Tourism.
