Picturesque property and land of just over 2300m2 with outstanding views on the outskirts of the village of Figueiro da Serra.

The dwelling has 2 bedrooms, a bathrooms, large living and kitchen area on the first floor, on the lower level are another 2 rooms, the largest was once a bedroom but has now been turned into a storage area and the smaller of the 2 is used as a wood store. The property has great access and has been well maintained over the years the owner has lived there. It’s an incredible spot and totally private with no neighbours within view but with the added benefit of being a 2 minute walk into the village, the land all around the property has been fenced.

There are 2 front entrances but one isn’t currently used and is housing a solar heater, the other one takes you into a large kitchen living area with a wood burning stove in the corner that radiates heat during the winter months. There are base kitchen units with wood effect counters, a gas cooker, gas water heater and a small fridge. Leading off this large room you enter the first of the good sized bedrooms which then takes you through into the hallway which has also got a wood burning stove. One end of the hallway takes you to the other bedroom and the opposite end is where you’ll find the tiled bathroom complete with toilet, sink, large shower unit and bidet.

The property has mains water and also a borehole which is currently used for watering the surrounding garden and land. It’s powered by solar and the system will be left with the property, however if you wanted to be hooked up to the mains, it’s less than 200 metres away. Running all along the front of the property is a pergola providing a shaded canopy and a place to hang baskets or plants or a hammock on and there is a little seating area on a hard standing to the left. The dwelling sits on a good sized plot which extends over the track to the right of the property.

The current owners have planted lots of fruit trees including Apple, Pear, Peach, Tangerine, Hazel, Plum, Pomegranate, Quince, Olive and also Blueberry bushes. There is also another hectare of land which is for sale at the front of the property for an additional 10.000 euros that has 2 small ruins on it should you want a bigger plot.

The views from here are beautiful and you can see the lakes and mountains in their full glory, Figueiro da Serra is in the middle of the larger towns of Celorico da Beira and Gouveia, it’s also extremely close to the historic village of Linhares da Beira. There is everything in this area that you will need, both Celorico and Gouveia have shops, restaurants, doctors, vets, supermarkets, builders merchants and Celorico even has a small cinema. During the winter months the Estrela mountains is home to some winter sports but this entire area is absolutely stunning during all seasons of the year.
