This charming village house situated in a peaceful, pretty location minutes from Miranda do Corvo has been superbly restored by the current owners whilst managing to retain all the original rustic charm.

From a quiet country road, a cobbled driveway with parking for 2 cars leads around to a large sunny plot of land with a wide variety of fruit trees and 25 olive trees. There are two small annexes here, one houses the central heating boiler and provides storage for garden furniture and the other storage for tools etc. A single metal gate leads into a private walled courtyard with shaded seating & dining areas, a built in barbeque and a lovely archway with steps down to the attractive pool area. There is also a pool house with further storage. Metal gates directly from the road, allow for secure parking if required.

The house is accessed from the courtyard into a hallway and an open plan utility area with a double sink and plumbing for a washing machine. There is a store room and a wine cellar off here. Doors from the hall lead into a fully tiled shower room with a sink & toilet and a comfortable, bright sitting room with a wood burner, central heating radiator, fitted bookshelves and glazed double doors to the patio. There are lovely tiled floors throughout this level.

A wooden staircase leads from the lounge to the first floor and a very spacious kitchen/diner with a tiled floor, ample wooden base and wall units and 2 central heating radiators. A hallway off the kitchen has a cosy reading area and patio doors which lead to a balcony with stunning views over the Serra de Lousa. There is a pretty double bedroom with wooden floors & fitted wardrobes, 1 central heating radiator and an en-suite bathroom with overhead shower, sink, toilet & bidet.

A doorway to a second hallway gives access to a large double bedroom with wooden floors and doors to a balcony, a dressing room and a beautifully tiled wet room with toilet & sink. Stairs lead from the hallway down to a 2nd large sitting room with a wood burner, 2 central heating radiators and a door to the patio.

The current owners let out part of the house as a holiday let when they are not in residence. The doorway between the upstairs hallways has a secure lock separating the two sides of the house when required.

There is a further small plot of land across the road which comes with the house.

This is a fabulous property 3 minutes drive from Miranda do Corvo with all its amenities and popular weekly and monthly markets, 10 minutes from Lousa and Penela with their wonderful castles and many good restaurants and 20 minutes from the cultural university city of Coimbra, all of which have every facility you could require.
