Description complète
This beautifully restored four-bedroom village house perfectly blends Portuguese tradition with modern comfort and style. Located in the peaceful village of Escalos do Meio, just 5 minutes from Pedrógão Grande, it enjoys excellent sun exposure, open views over the stunning countryside and generously sized rooms – ideal for anyone seeking quality of life in the heart of central Portugal.
On the ground floor, you are welcomed by a bright and spacious living room, followed by a luminous kitchen with a wooden island, ceramic hob, oven, and a practical pantry. There is also a dining room, storage area and a bathroom on this level.
The first floor comprises four double bedrooms, all en suite with private bathrooms, including a master suite with dressing room and a bathroom featuring a bathtub. Double-glazed windows ensure both thermal and acoustic comfort, while the balcony provides panoramic views over the village and surrounding landscape. This floor also offers a multipurpose room, ideal for use as a laundry area, and access to the attic, where a large-capacity boiler is installed.
Outside, the property provides several leisure spaces: stone-edged flowerbeds, a small outbuilding with potential for reconstruction, a sheltered outdoor kitchen with traditional wood-fired oven, and a large terrace with seating and breathtaking views. The garden features a mature kiwi tree, a tangerine tree and a lemon tree, providing both natural shade and fresh fruit. The garage is exceptionally spacious, with capacity for more than three cars, and can also be used as a workshop or storage space.
The house retains its traditional character, with lime-coated walls that allow the property to “breathe” naturally and prevent damp, while benefiting from complete modernisation, including new plumbing and electrical systems. It is perfectly suited as a permanent family home or as an investment opportunity, such as a holiday rental or tourism project.
Its location is another highlight: just 1 minute from the famous National Road 2 – a scenic route popular with travellers exploring Portugal – 5 minutes from Pedrógão Grande with its shops, services, schools, and restaurants, and 45 minutes from the city of Coimbra. Lisbon and Porto are both around two hours away.
A wonderful home for those who wish to enjoy the tranquillity of village life, surrounded by nature, while remaining close to excellent amenities and with easy access to major cities.
