It is located near Sousel, around 45 minutes by car from Évora and approximately 20 kilometres from Estremoz. The mansion contains 20 rooms, including 10 bedrooms, arranged over two floors. Two bathrooms are currently recorded, so renovation planning should consider the requirements of the intended use.

A log burner and rustic kitchen reinforce the property’s authentic Alentejo atmosphere. Countryside views bring a tranquil backdrop to the estate. The nearby village provides convenient access to basic local facilities. Évora offers heritage tourism, restaurants, services and a strong regional identity. Lisbon is approximately two hours away, making occasional city access practical. The Spanish border is around 45 minutes away, adding cross-border accessibility for residents and visitors.
