Full Description
A detached three-bedroom stone house with four annexes for renovation conveniently located between Cernache do Bonjardim and Sertã for sale.
The house is set over two floors and is connected to mains water and electricity. There are also two wells on the property. The property is located on a quiet tarmac road with only local traffic and there is a high stone wall with two large metal vehicle entrance gates.
The house has a footprint of 100 square meters and is set over two floors. The house has good quality pvc double glazed windows and doors throughout. The floors on the first floor are solid wood. The electric wiring and plumbing is all new, as is the roof with proper insulation. Solar panels ensure hot water supply and a wood burner with back boiler heats the central heating system throughout the house.
To side of the house there is a parking space for a car. From here we open a wooden gate and come into a kiwi-covered patio, with bbq, which leads onto the former threshing floor, a perfect outlook spot into the distance.
The main entrance to the house, situated on the first floor, opens to the right to the living room with wood burner, which feeds the radiators installed in all rooms of the house. To the left there is a short corridor, from which we have access to a small room used as office space, and to the right to a bathroom with toilet, hand wash basin and shower basin with transparent sliding door.
Walking past the living room, we have a bedroom to the left and another room to the right from which wooden stairs lead up into the ample attic space. This large room the owners used as the master bedroom. There is a bathroom with toilet, bidet and hand wash basin. The ceiling is wood-clad. Back to the first floor, at the end of the corridor we have two steps leading us into the sun-drenched kitchen with traditional open fireplace in one corner and basic kitchen furniture. We step out onto a large terrace with wonderful views of the surroundings and into our own land. From here we have steps leading to the ground floor. The ground floor of the house consists of one large room used as a workshop and a separate accommodation unit, perfect for long-term visitors or a granny flat.
Underneath the terrace, we have a large porch. A door leads into the ground floor accommodation unit, consisting of an open room, a kitchen space with door to the back of the house, and a bathroom with toilet, hand wash basin with storage cupboard underneath and a large shower basin with transparent sliding doors.
On the opposite side of the house on the ground floor we have a door to a large room used as a workshop. A narrow path divides the house from the annex, which consists of an old building formerly used as a wine press, with a large, covered space in front. To the rear we have another annex accommodating a large traditional bread oven.
Next to the second entry to the property, with a vehicle gate, is a ruin of what used to be a shed, which can be rebuilt to purpose. Opposite this ruin we have a large old well with a large water storage tank next to it. From here we can go onto the land, which boasts a large number of mature olive trees and a good number of fruit trees. The land spans an area of one and a half hectares, and consists of several wide terraces, which makes it quite easy to maintain as there is access for a tractor and other farming vehicles. There is another well at the bottom of the land. On the limit of the property alongside the road there is another vehicle access gate.
The property is mostly fenced, perfect for your dogs, sheep, goats and horses. The furthest part of the land boasts many cork oaks, olive, arbutus and pine trees. There is also vehicle access to the far end of the land.
The property is located only three km from the center of the town of Cernache do Bonjardim, which has cafés, bars, shops, mini-market, pharmacy and schools. The larger town of Sertã is six km away.
