This delightful five-bedroom, five-bathroom property is located within the historic walled castle complex of Estremoz, alongside the prestigious 5-star Pousada Estremoz Castle Hotel, the Rainha Santa Isabel tower and the Santa Maria church, offering a great opportunity to own a true piece of Portuguese history.
Historic castle property for sale
Belonging to a close friend, this fantastic home consists of four floors and offers four individual dwellings under one roof, which makes it a perfect investment property for those looking to convert it to a boutique hotel or luxury apartments, or indeed a superb (multi) family home.
Sympathetically renovated
It was fully renovated in 2013, including a new roof, with clever conversion work to preserve its numerous medieval features and it lies in the same street as the old 16th century castle prison (today a fine dining restaurant: A Cadeia Quinhentista). The owner took great care with the renovations, ensuring the interiors blend the traditional with the modern, using only top-quality fixtures and fittings including original beamed ceilings, rustic archways and recesses, and many other authentic details.
Enveloped within castle walls
Another feature that makes this property so special is that the actual castle walls run along the base of the garden, including a private little tower recess from which you can enjoy al fresco dining or a glass of wine as you watch the sun set over the town below. There is also a pretty terrace running the width of the property at the back offering the same incredible views over Estremoz with enough space for an outdoor kitchen and dining area.
The four units with independent entrances consist of:
Unit 1: two bedroom suites, a living room with fireplace and kitchen
Unit 2: two bedroom suites, a living room, kitchen and terrace with a wonderful view of the city and access to the garden
Unit 3: a living room with fireplace, bedroom, bathroom and kitchen also with access to the garden
Unit 4: on street level, could be used for commercial purposes, such as a café, bar or restaurant and has access to the terrace and garden
The total built area is 399m2 on a plot of 2,500m2, so the grounds also offer ample space to add a private swimming pool.
