Unique Rural Estate with Guest Facilities, Cherry Orchard, Lake & Mountain Views near Alpedrinha
Arriving from the historic village of Alpedrinha, this exceptional 5.2-hectare rural estate is reached via an unpaved country road and offers a rare combination of natural beauty, existing infrastructure and outstanding potential.
Set in the beautiful interior of central Portugal, the estate enjoys views towards the Serra da Gardunha and is surrounded by hiking routes, scenic viewpoints and river beaches. It is conveniently located close to Serra da Estrela, Monsanto and Fundão, in the heart of Portugal’s renowned cherry-growing region.
Main Building & Guest Facilities
At the heart of the property stands a substantial farmhouse, registered for residential use, with a footprint of approximately 248 m² over two floors.
The ground floor features a large, bright communal room with generous dining space, a bar and an equipped kitchen area. Large windows and an open layout create a welcoming environment for social gatherings and shared meals.
At the rear of the building are two separate sanitary facilities. The first comprises 4 WCs, 4 washbasins and 4 showers, while the second has 4 WCs, 3 washbasins and 4 showers. Adjacent to these facilities is a storage/laundry room with a washing machine.
An external tiled staircase leads to a small terrace and a separate upper-level unit comprising a cosy, modern living room and bedroom, fitted with PVC windows and double glazing.
Outside, there is a spacious terrace and lounge area overlooking the mountains, together with a traditional wood-fired oven — an ideal setting for outdoor dining and enjoying the peaceful surroundings.
The property was previously operated as an alternative campsite and retains a comprehensive range of facilities, suitable for welcoming guests, hosting retreats or creating a private rural hospitality project.
A small separate building houses the borehole equipment, which provides the water supply for both the main building and the camping area.
Cherry Orchard & Agricultural Potential
A part of the estate is planted with cherry trees, with an irrigation system previously installed. The property also contains a selection of other fruit trees, including apricot, peach and pomegranate.
Several large metal-framed polytunnels are situated on the land. Some of the covers require replacement, but the existing structures offer excellent potential for renewed agricultural use, market gardening or other cultivation projects.
Private Lake & Water Resources
One of the property's most distinctive features is its private lake and water dam. Beyond providing an important resource for irrigation, they create a beautiful natural setting and a tranquil place to enjoy the outdoors. The lake can additionally be used for swimming and fishing.
Water resources are further supported by a recently installed and licensed borehole, providing water for the buildings and campsite area.
The property is also connected to the main sewage system.
Former Camping Area
The former camping area occupies a large, predominantly flat section of the estate. It already benefits from installed electricity and multiple power points, making it well suited to recreational, hospitality or event-related use.
Parts of the area are naturally shaded, with established pine trees and young paulownia trees adding to the character of the landscape.
A small bridge across the river provides access to the additional 4,400 m² rustic plot with its existing ruin, opening up further possibilities for those looking to restore and develop the property in harmony with its rural surroundings.
A Property Full of Possibilities
With its combination of land, water, agricultural infrastructure, guest facilities, mountain views and existing utilities, this is a property with considerable potential.
For those seeking a peaceful lifestyle in authentic Portugal, the estate offers space, privacy and an exceptional natural setting, while remaining within reach of Fundão, Serra da Estrela, Monsanto and the wider Beira Baixa region.
A rare opportunity to acquire a substantial rural property with established infrastructure, its own water resources and multiple possibilities for future use.
