For buyers seeking Alentejo land for sale with panoramic views, two wells and development potential, this Ourique estate is a compelling option. The asking price is €548,000 for 558,000 m² of agricultural land. It is not a completed house, and the price excludes any future construction. The gently undulating terrain includes fertile ground, open pasture and many mature holm oaks. A small stream forms part of the boundary and enhances the natural landscape. Water is supplied by two wells, with abundant water reported on the 11-hectare section and enough for a household on the larger area. Countryside and panoramic views extend across the lower Alentejo setting. A public tarmac road divides the estate into two parts and provides convenient access. The division may create the possibility of two separate plots, subject to confirmation by Ourique Town Hall. Planning discussions indicate that an owner’s home may be considered where the land is used for agriculture, such as keeping sheep or growing produce. The municipality has indicated potential construction parameters of up to 500 m² for the owner’s habitation and another 500 m² for support buildings, subject to registration and approval. A revised PDM could potentially provide a further 1,000 m² for tourism-related construction. These indications are not a planning guarantee, so independent verification is essential before purchase. Nearby electricity and telephone lines should make future utility connections easier to investigate. The property is reached through a manual entrance gate and has a practical rural road connection. Ourique lies approximately 4 km away with supermarkets, restaurants, cafés, banks, a school, a post office and other amenities. The highway and IC1 offer useful routes towards the Algarve and Lisbon. The Atlantic beach at Vila Nova de Milfontes is around 65 km away, giving the estate a balance of countryside and coastal access. Its size and potential may suit an agricultural business, rural retreat or agrotourism concept, with revenue prospects dependent on permissions, design and market research.

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.
