As featured in the renowned magazine Casas de Portugal (Houses in Portugal), this stately home sits with pride of place at the top of the village – almost within reach of the famed Castle of Santiago do Cacém whose fascinating history spans from the Roman epoch to the Moorish invasions to early Christianity.
From its privileged position, this traditional home enjoys wonderful views across the rooftops towards the pretty rolling countryside of Alentejo on the one side and views to its majestic sandstone castle neighbour on the other.
Inside and out, this lovely rental villa in Portugal is a very special home. The genteel, traditional Portuguese country home architecture is at its finest here with scrolled stone details and impressively comfortable facades.
The gardens are sheltered yet sunny, providing a plethora of fruits for daily juicing or to pick for a poolside snack. A heated pool and private garden suite with its own access all add to the multitude of modern-day conveniences not often found in homes such as this.
Come to this historic Alentejo home to live in historical bliss! For history buffs, lovers of exceptional furnishings, artwork and architecture, bon vivants and those who relish the idea of sampling the gracious living of yesteryear… look no further.
Big, fluffy sofas, comfy beds, TVs and squishy armchairs all embrace the modern-day visitor alongside an elegant antique piano, museum-quality antique oils and delicate drawing room chaises – a miraculous blend of new and old all living happily together. And, you’ll be pampered by an experienced staff that knows how to roll out the best of Portuguese hospitality to their lucky visitors.
In a 200-year-old home, there are no cookie-cutter bedrooms and bathrooms. However, every detail in this beautifully-restored home has been lovingly attended to by the family. Each room has its own unique identity – but comfort has not been spared in any. Rooms are large, bright and offer lovely views of the village or the castle. All bedrooms play host to magnificent antique dressers, armoires and bric-a-brac, but are tasteful and uncluttered. Three bedrooms are on the main living room level ( 1st floor) and three are located on the upper level ( 2ndfloor). The Pool Suite, with its private access, is situated in the garden. Bathrooms have not been overlooked – with attention lavished on rain-head showers, hand-made Portuguese tiles and all the modern conveniences. Three bathrooms are en-suite.
