Near Monte da Rocha Lake, this €1,200,000 Alentejo country estate combines approximately 1.5 kilometres of private waterfront with a fully equipped equestrian complex. It is a substantial 14.45-hectare holding near Ourique, designed for buyers seeking horses, open space and direct contact with nature. The estate sits on a picturesque lake peninsula with private access and impressive water views. Eleven loose boxes are housed within an American Barn-style complex of approximately 900 square metres. Equestrian facilities include a sand riding training school and an internationally sized grass jumping arena. Paddocks are internally fenced and connected, with field shelters and piped water available. A grip room, workshop and interior and exterior horse cleaning areas add practical functionality. The perimeter is fully fenced, helping create a secure environment for horses, equipment and rural activities. Independent entrance gateways serve the two plots that make up the property. Two large licensed ruins stand alongside the lake and may be rebuilt in accordance with the applicable planning framework. The licensed construction area totals 314 square metres, with seven licensed divisions recorded. An agricultural building provides approximately 248 square metres across five divisions. The land also includes a productive olive plantation of around 400 trees. A borehole supports the property’s water provision, complemented by piping along the land. Photovoltaic equipment, a generator and a septic tank add autonomy for rural living and operations. The location is protected by National Ecological Reserve regulations, making professional planning advice particularly important. Ourique, just 6 kilometres away, offers schools, a market and everyday commercial services. Funcheira railway station is around 10 kilometres away, and coastal beaches are approximately 62 kilometres from the estate. This rare combination may appeal to an equestrian business, private retreat or nature-led accommodation investor, subject to due diligence and permissions.
