Buying this large rural land investment near the Alentejo coast gives purchasers 558,000m² of agricultural land with two wells for €548,000. The property is positioned approximately 4km from Ourique and 65km from Vila Nova de Milfontes beach. Its size, water resources and potential building options make it worth considering for agriculture, rural living or agro-tourism. Mature holm oaks, fertile land and pasture create a productive countryside environment. A small stream borders one side of the holding and enhances its landscape appeal. The two wells offer valuable water access for farming and possible domestic use. One well is located on the approximately 11-hectare part and has abundant water. The other well on the larger section is described as sufficient for a household. Buyers should arrange independent checks on water quality, flow, rights and infrastructure. A tarmac road provides convenient access to the property. Electricity and telephone lines are close to the land, which may reduce the complexity of future connections. The road divides the property into two parts and could provide flexibility for a future subdivision. The possibility of creating two separate plots must be confirmed with the relevant authorities. Because the holding is larger than 5 hectares, the town hall has indicated that a house could be considered for an agricultural use. A potential owner’s dwelling may be up to 500m², alongside up to 500m² of agricultural support buildings, subject to approval. After the PDM revision, a further 1,000m² may potentially be available for tourism purposes. Such potential could support a diversified business model combining land management, accommodation and local experiences. Ourique provides supermarkets, shops, banks, restaurants, cafés, a school and other everyday services. Easy access to the highway and IC1 connects the site with the Algarve and Lisbon, while Faro Airport is around 100km away. Any rental income, resale growth or ROI will depend on planning, investment costs, licensing and demand, so contact us today to explore this rural investment near the Alentejo coast.
