Located in the heart of the Penamacor countryside, this exceptional private estate offers a rare combination of refined rural living, equestrian facilities, productive land and complete privacy. Surrounded by mature cork and olive trees, open pasture and peaceful meadowland, the property enjoys far-reaching countryside views, including views towards the Castle of Penamacor. The recently renovated main residence combines traditional character with high-quality finishes and generous proportions. It offers five spacious bedrooms, including two large suites with private bathrooms, together with a dedicated office and several comfortable living areas designed for both family life and entertaining. At the heart of the home is a substantial country kitchen with a central island, barbecue area, traditional brick bread oven and an impressive wood-burning stove. A large walk-in pantry and separate laundry room lead directly to the garage, which provides space for approximately three vehicles. Two living rooms, a games room and additional communal areas give the house excellent flexibility for everyday living, guests and extended family. The outdoor spaces have been designed to make full use of the estate’s private setting. A saltwater swimming pool provides a natural focal point for leisure and relaxation, with an additional registered urban building positioned nearby and currently used for tool and equipment storage. Subject to the necessary approvals, this building could offer potential for alternative uses such as guest accommodation, a studio, gymnasium or pool house. For equestrian buyers, the estate is particularly well equipped. Traditional granite stone stables provide accommodation for five horses and are complemented by paddocks, a horse shower area, hay storage, a tack room and a dedicated dressage arena. The surrounding grassland and grazing areas create an attractive and practical environment for keeping and exercising horses within the property. The estate includes approximately **7.8 hectares of rustic land**, divided between three registered parcels of approximately **27,845 m², 39,931 m² and 10,029 m²**, with a combined rustic area of approximately **77,805 m²**. The land has been carefully used for a mixture of agricultural and lifestyle purposes, including a traditional olive grove cultivated according to organic farming principles, open grazing pasture, meadowland, two vegetable gardens and low-irrigation crops. Mature cork and olive trees are established throughout the estate, adding both agricultural value and a strong sense of place. Water availability is one of the property’s most important assets. The estate benefits from two wells, a traditional granite-lined water feature, a borehole approximately 140 metres deep and connection to the public mains water network through two independent meters. Mains electricity is also connected, while solar panels support the irrigation system. Additional agricultural infrastructure includes a 50 m² support building, tractor and machinery storage, wood storage, a chicken shed, kennels, animal shelters and a traditional granite threshing floor. These facilities make the estate well suited to buyers seeking a functioning countryside property rather than simply a rural residence. The entire estate is fully fenced, offering security, privacy and practical land management for animals, agriculture and day-to-day use. This is a property aimed at buyers seeking more than a house in the countryside. It offers the scale and infrastructure of a true rural estate, with equestrian facilities, productive land, abundant water, extensive outbuildings and a substantial renovated residence, all set within a private and attractive landscape in Central Portugal. Whether considered as a permanent family home, private equestrian estate, country retreat, smallholding or long-term lifestyle investment, this is a distinctive opportunity for buyers who value space, privacy, land and an authentic connection to the Portuguese countryside. #ref:EXP_448
