Just 40 km from Lisbon and very close to the town of Alenquer, this historic estate enjoys a privileged elevated position, with sweeping views over the Tagus Valley and the Serra de Montejunto. Set on approximately 4 hectares of land, with around 1,400 m² of built area, the property comprises an interesting collection of buildings from different periods and originally serving different purposes, all currently in need of restoration. The main house is arranged over three floors. The ground floor includes five bedrooms, living and dining rooms, a kitchen and a bathroom. The attic extends across almost the entire footprint of the house and has independent access, while the spacious lower floor, which is not entirely below ground level, benefits from ceilings approximately four metres high. Surrounding the main house are several buildings that reflect the estate's agricultural past, including caretakers' houses, a wine cellar, warehouses and agricultural buildings, stables, equestrian facilities and covered sheds. The land, with good sun exposure and a rural setting, lends itself to a variety of uses and offers the possibility of reviving the estate's agricultural character, whether through vineyards, orchards or other crops. Given the scale of the existing buildings, their architectural character and the proximity to Lisbon, the estate also offers potential for a tourism or small-scale hospitality project, an events venue, or simply the creation of a substantial private country estate. One of its most striking features is its setting: the elevated position provides open 360-degree views across the surrounding landscape, reaching the Tagus River and the Serra de Montejunto, in a peaceful and private environment despite its proximity to the town. The property is located very close to Alenquer, in a region historically associated with vineyards and winemaking, with convenient access to Lisbon via the A1 and A8 motorways. An estate of impressive scale and character, in an unusual setting, awaiting a new project capable of restoring the identity of the property and giving it a new lease of life.
