Beautiful quinta, T2 house, 1Ha fertile land, Póvoa de Midões, Tábua

This is a jewel of a property perfect for a couple or small family interested in  farming on a domestic scale. The view from the south facing house is spectacular - over the Serra d’Açor and Serra d’Estrela. On one hectare of terraced land there are over 30 different species of fruit tree, bushes, vines, wild fruit and nuts through the year. Water is pure from an abundant well (pumped by solar pump) and there is enough pine in the forest for your own fire wood.

The house is reconstructed from original granite farm buildings. Since it was built by the owners for themselves there are good quality materials throughout, recycled wherever possible, with double-glazed windows and doors. It is centrally heated from a wood stove. The roof is new and insulated well, using the original hand made tiles to preserve the rural look on what is basically a new house; cosy in winter and cool in summer. There are wood sheds, 3 lock-ups, two caravans and a large garage/workshop. It has mains electricity, and fast fibre internet connection.

Secluded but with easy access, the Quinta is only 15 mins away from the major railway station of Santa Comba Dão with trains to Porto and Lisbon, and 5 minutes drive from the local market town of Tabua. It is very close to the river Mondego for swimming or canoeing
