RESERVADO It was a very old and forgotten hilltop. A few years ago (2021), it was rediscovered by someone who wanted a 'special little spot' in Estremoz and became the centre of a happy story. Some of the original walls remained, bearing witness to the passage of time, and with great dedication, a comfortable home full of light and good energy was rebuilt. We are just 5 minutes from Estremoz, yet all you can see is countryside, a stream and the tranquillity of the Alentejo. In days gone by, the 1.6 hectares of this estate were used as a vegetable garden, thanks to the good quality of the soil and the abundance of water, evidenced by an ingenious irrigation tunnel that still exists today. The house is very light-filled due to its east-west orientation. The open-plan living area flows seamlessly into the elegant white Italian-designed kitchen, custom-built for this space. The old fireplace may one day have a wood-burning stove. A large window offers views of the terrace, the garden and the neighbouring fields dotted with holm oaks and cork oaks. In total there are two bedrooms, one of which is en-suite and has a separate entrance, though it can be connected to the rest of the house. The second bedroom has a walk-in wardrobe and access to the outside, leading to the pool area. The bathrooms are finished in Estremoz marble. Outside, the swimming pool is perfect for hot days. As it is raised, accessed via a few steps, the view is more expansive and pleasant. It has a deck area where you can relax on sun loungers. Surrounding the house are shade trees and some fruit trees, including pomegranate, fig, olive, mulberry, lemon and holm oak trees. At the entrance to the property, which is via an automatic gate, there are 2 covered parking spaces. Welcome to this Alentejo retreat, just 5 minutes from beautiful Estremoz - the city of white marble - with its excellent restaurants, Saturday market and local shops. Notes: Mains electricity is available. There is one well by the stream and two boreholes. One of these is at the far end of the plot and, like the well, is not in use. The other supplies the house, garden and swimming pool. There are two pumps. One supplies the house and is connected to a tank and filter. The other supplies the surrounding outdoor areas. The Energy Performance Certificate was issued prior to the full renovation.
