A unique estate where history, traditional Alentejo architecture and nature come together, just minutes from the centre of Beja.Quinta da Abóbada is a historic estate distinguished by the authenticity of its architecture, the impressive scale of its buildings and its remarkable natural surroundings, offering an atmosphere of tranquillity and privacy despite its proximity to the city.At the heart of the estate stands a historic Alentejo manor house, whose original design and architectural features evoke the elegance and significance of the region’s grand country estates.With a total gross built area of approximately 1,196 sqm, comprising main living spaces and ancillary areas, the property presents an outstanding opportunity for restoration and heritage enhancement.In addition to its historical and landscape value, the estate offers real estate development potential, having previously been the subject of an approved Preliminary Planning Information Request (PIP) for an urban subdivision project.Quinta da Abóbada therefore combines two particularly attractive opportunities: the restoration of a distinctive architectural heritage property and the potential development of a residential project in a prime location on the outskirts of Beja. A Historic Manor House with Character and Identity The main residence stands out for its traditional architecture, generous proportions and distinctive layout, reflecting the different periods and uses that have shaped the estate over time.Its interiors, featuring spacious rooms and period architectural and decorative details, retain the character of a traditional Alentejo country residence, offering numerous possibilities for restoration and adaptation to contemporary living standards.Preserving the manor house’s architectural identity through a carefully considered restoration project could restore its former elegance and grandeur.The estate also includes several outbuildings, former agricultural structures and ancillary buildings, arranged around traditional courtyards and pathways, further enhancing its authenticity and versatility.Together with the main residence, these buildings offer the opportunity to envisage a restoration project that respects the estate’s history and identity while creating spaces suited to new uses. Gardens, Water and Nature A True Alentejo Retreat One of the most distinctive features of Quinta da Abóbada is its exceptional natural setting.In striking contrast to the dry, open landscapes often associated with the Alentejo, the estate boasts abundant vegetation, mature trees, shaded corners and historic pathways winding through its gardens.Traditional water storage and distribution structures, including old reservoirs and hydraulic features, add a particularly distinctive dimension to the property.Among the trees, natural vegetation and former landscaped areas, there are spaces of remarkable natural beauty, offering the potential to create landscaped gardens, peaceful retreats, leisure areas and private outdoor living spaces.It is easy to imagine these gardens restored to their former beauty, preserving the existing trees, enhancing the water features and introducing walking paths, relaxation areas and inviting outdoor spaces for entertaining.The combination of traditional architecture, historic courtyards, outbuildings and surrounding greenery creates an atmosphere of remarkable authenticity, with the potential to transform the estate into a truly distinctive property.A genuine oasis of greenery, freshness and tranquillity, with exceptional landscaping potential in a location so close to the city. A Property Offering Multiple Opportunities for Enhancement Thanks to its size, layout and architectural characteristics, Quinta da Abóbada offers particularly attractive opportunities for a variety of restoration and development projects, including: - A prestigious private residence, restoring the historic manor house and its gardens, with spacious interiors and ancillary buildings. - A boutique hospitality project or country hotel, celebrating the estate’s traditional architecture, outdoor spaces and historic identity. - A venue for private events, retreats or cultural activities, making use of the existing courtyards, gardens and buildings. - A heritage restoration project, combining residential use, leisure and nature. - Residential property development, through the section of the estate previously studied for urban development. Any future use would naturally be subject to applicable planning regulations and the necessary legal approvals. Real Estate Development Potential Urban Subdivision Project Beyond its historical, architectural and landscape value, Quinta da Abóbada offers a particularly significant real estate investment opportunity.The property was previously the subject of an approved Preliminary Planning Information Request (PIP) for an urban subdivision project, involving the creation of plots intended for residential construction.The urban planning study, developed in 2021, presents a proposed site layout incorporating: - Plots intended for residential construction. - New access roads and internal circulation routes. - Parking areas and pavements. - Green spaces. - Preservation of an existing residential building. - Conversion of an existing built area for residential use. The proposal seeks to combine the preservation of part of the existing architectural heritage with the creation of a new residential area, taking advantage of the estate’s location within the urban surroundings of Beja.The site layout and dimensioning plans demonstrate a structured urban planning study, identifying areas allocated to construction, circulation, parking and green spaces.The previously approved PIP has now expired, meaning that any future urban development project will require renewed assessment by the relevant authorities and the necessary statutory approvals.This development component may be particularly attractive to property developers and investors seeking to establish a residential project in an area of urban expansion, benefiting from its proximity to the city centre. The Peace of the Countryside, Just Moments from the City Location is another of Quinta da Abóbada’s outstanding advantages.Situated on the immediate outskirts of Beja, the estate combines the privacy and tranquillity of a traditional country property with convenient access to the city’s shops, services, amenities and transport connections.Its location represents a significant advantage for both a private residential or hospitality project and a potential real estate development.A particularly appealing combination for buyers seeking a historic property with substantial scale, distinctive character and significant potential for appreciation, without sacrificing proximity to urban life. Sale Conditions and Acquisition Options Quinta da Abóbada is currently being marketed as a single property, in accordance with its existing land registry and tax registration status.However, the owners are open to different acquisition arrangements, depending on the buyer’s interests and objectives.Acquisition of the Entire Estate €2,250,000Includes the whole of Quinta da Abóbada, comprising the historic manor house, outbuildings, gardens and the area with potential for real estate development.Potential Acquisition of the Historic Manor House Area €990,000Comprises the main residence, ancillary buildings and a surrounding area to be defined, including the associated outdoor spaces.Potential Acquisition of the Real Estate Development Area €1,350,000Corresponds to the section of the estate previously studied under the PIP for an urban subdivision project, intended for potential residential development.Important: The two partial acquisition options do not currently correspond to legally independent plots or separately registered properties. Any such transaction would be conditional upon the completion of the necessary land subdivision or other legally permissible procedures to establish separate property titles. These procedures would be undertaken by the owners, subject to legal and planning feasibility and the relevant approvals.The prices indicated for partial acquisition therefore represent reference commercial terms for potential future transactions. A Unique Opportunity in the Alentejo Quinta da Abóbada represents an opportunity to restore and enhance an architectural and landscape heritage property of remarkable character, preserving the identity of a traditional Alentejo estate while creating a project that celebrates its history and location.Whether intended as a prestigious private residence, a boutique hospitality venture or a real estate investment, this property brings together particularly attractive features: traditional architecture, substantial existing buildings, gardens with exceptional landscaping potential and a privileged location on the outskirts of Beja.More than a property, a place with a history and a future waiting to be reimagined. #ref:KWPT-041945
