Monte is surrounded by gardens, with fabulous views (260°) over the village, the vast Alentejo plains and the medieval castle of Portel. As the property name says "Monte com Boavista".

The main house, in addition to the 2 suites, has a master bedroom, a large living room, a small library, a winter garden with fabulous views, an office and a wine cellar. The kitchen leads to a terrace with a barbecue and an outdoor living room.

The region is of interest to buyers who, on the one hand, want to enjoy the peaceful country life and, on the other hand, want to be close to decision centers. The nearest largest cities are Évora and Beja, which are located about 40km away. The Algarve and the Spanish border are 90 minutes away.

Monte is working with Rural Tourism (B&B) offering 5 studios, 2 suites and 2 apartments (T2) with a total of 24 beds. There is also an approved project to build 6 more studios and 1 suite (14 beds), for a total of 38 beds. This project also includes a living room with 70m2.

The property is perfect for a retired couple or a young family that wants to explore a Rural Tourism unit and simultaneously develop some agricultural activities, including wine production, walnut trees, etc.

Another solution, which can be even more profitable, is to convert the property into a post-surgery recovery clinic.
