Investing in this self-sufficient Alentejo country estate offers a 420m² home, approximately 150,000m² of land and a purchase price of €1,800,000. The property combines private lake access, equestrian infrastructure, olive groves and facilities that could support rural tourism or rental use. Its versatility makes it suitable for buyers seeking a lifestyle investment with several potential income routes. The renovated single-storey house contains three bedrooms, all with en-suite bathrooms. A semi-open-plan design opens onto a large covered terrace overlooking the garden and lake. Guests or residents can enjoy a 12 x 6m swimming pool and a private tennis court. The equestrian centre includes a 12-box stable block, grip room, fenced paddocks and an Olympic-size sand arena. Direct access to approximately 1.5km of private waterfront strengthens the estate’s appeal for retreats and countryside stays. The house can operate independently of the wider land, allowing owners to consider different management arrangements. One possibility is to live in the country house while using other areas for an equestrian or tourism enterprise. The olive groves are managed to organic standards and may generate agricultural income, although returns should be assessed independently. Two large ruins could potentially be restored into additional accommodation or business facilities with the required approvals. Photovoltaic panels and a battery bank reduce dependence on external electricity supplies. Solar panels and a wood burner with back boiler provide hot water, while three boreholes serve key areas of the estate. These features can help control running requirements, although buyers should complete their own technical and financial checks. Ourique is approximately 6km away and provides local facilities, including a hospital. Funcheira train station is around 10km away and offers high-speed rail connections to major cities. Faro Airport is approximately 100km distant, providing useful access for international visitors and holiday guests.
