Description
Nestled amidst the verdant terrains of Leiria, within the quaint surroundings of Pedrógão Grande, Portugal, this charming 2-bedroom detached house presents a serene riverside haven waiting to welcome its new owners. Set on a vast plot of 7110 square meters, this property is ideally pitched for those looking to immerse in a peaceful countryside lifestyle yet yearn for a hint of adventure and the possibility of personalizing their new home.
The property boasts a recently restored historic structure, eloquently coupled with untouched natural beauty. With a footprint of 52 square meters, the main dwelling has been thoughtfully rehabilitated, yet still yearns for some final personal touches to fully transform it into a dream home. Comprising a snugly fitted kitchen and living space equipped with a wood stove and gas oven, the comfort of domestic warmth is instantly palpable. The bedroom features an inventive mezzanine level, maximizing the spatial use and adding an enchanting character to the room. The bathroom is adequately equipped with modern facilities including both a shower and bath.
An additional gem on this estate is a registered ruin of 27 square meters which holds a promise of renovation, envisaged as either a welcoming guesthouse or a potential rental investment. This smaller structure supplements the primary home and serves as an excellent project for those looking to expand their living space or entrepreneurial ventures.
The terraced land itself is a treasure trove of fertility, featuring aged fruit trees and vibrant grape vines under the southeast sun exposure – a perfect plot for gardening enthusiasts or those contemplating a modest homestead. The inclusion of multiple water sources, including a perennial natural spring and water storage facilities, make living off the land a viable and sustainable option. The eco-conscious will also appreciate the solar panel system and combined solar and gas water heating solutions ensuring that the house has a minimal carbon footprint.
For leisure and relaxation, the property extends down to the river Zêzere. A drivable track leading to the riverside offers the potential to craft a bespoke leisure area or terrace right by the water’s edge, providing a tranquil spot to unwind or entertain.
Despite its seeming seclusion, the property is just a 15-minute drive from the center of Pedrogão Grande, ensuring essential services and amenities are within easy reach. The area offers a quiet, community-focused lifestyle with the pleasure of rural living. From local markets offering fresh produce to the friendly neighborhood gatherings, living here means being part of a close-knit community.
Amenities include:
- Close proximity to local shops and markets
- Access to community events and local festivities
- Nearby medical facilities
- Local dining establishments featuring traditional Portuguese cuisine
Living in Pedrogão Grande offers a distinctly seasonal climate, with warm, dry summers perfect for enjoying the natural splendor and slightly wet, mild winters that transform the landscape into a lush, green haven. This climatic variation ensures that both the home and surrounding lands can be enjoyed year-round.
Potential buyers should note the access via a dirt road, which requires a vehicle with reasonable ground clearance, hinting at the rustic charm and adventure that awaits at this property.
In essence, this property is not just a home, but a canvas awaiting the final artistic touches of its new owners. With its solid foundation, captivating surroundings, and boundless potential, this home is poised to become the heart of a fulfilling lifestyle. Whether looking to step back from the bustling city life or foster a connection with nature, this house offers the perfect backdrop to craft a bespoke rural idyll in the heart of Portugal.
