This property is sold fully furnished and the accommodation comprises entrance hall, lounge, separate dining room, farmhouse style fitted kitchen, 6 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms and a store room.

It requires some upgrading but also benefits from central heating, wooden flooring, feature fireplace and beamed ceilings.

The detached house is nestled into the hillside and therefore has a stepped garden leading down to the private swimming pool and river.

All furniture and farming/agricultural tools are included.

Marco de Canaveses is only 45 minutes from Porto, which is Portugal's second city. Porto is a city on the rise, tempting travellers with its pretty old town, excellent wine bars and golden rooftops. It is rapidly developing into a respected tourist destination and with the increase of low cost flights it is becoming a popular alternative city break destination. The airport is situated 16km from the city centre, with a regular metro link from the airport to the centre that takes around 30 minutes.

Broadband is widely available in Portugal and is known as 'banda larga'. It is considered to function better than broadband services in the UK due to the fact that Portugal was one of the last countries to embrace broadband technology and thus has a system with newer design and technology. There are several service providers offering ADSL, fibre and wireless services in Portugal to the residential and the professional markets.
