The small parish of São João de Rei (365 inhabitants) is a rural paradise that has exceptional quality of life characteristics such as fresh air, unspoiled green landscape and silence. It also has all the infrastructures for modern life - fiber optic network, water distribution network (the property also has its own water source and borders a stream), and sanitation. The property we present has historical characteristics, dating back to the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, times of the two houses of which it is constituted. It is linked to the religious cult of its Chapel with devotion to Senhora Da Lapa (granite image on the pediment facing the street), and also to agricultural activity vineyards, cereals and milling (it has a small water mill in the adjacent stream of the property). The "Casa do Ribeiro", as it is thus known, was through its last deceased owner the writer and poet António Celestino, connoted with the visit of great figures of literature and culture in general. It is also an important legacy of the region and the country! The property needs full renovation and restoration and appears to be ideal for a prestigious and luxury residence, with the addition of facilities such as a riding arena, swimming pool, tennis or others. It is also the ideal solution for the implementation of a small boutique hotel. A unique opportunity to acquire and enjoy quality of life, in an address of charm and prestige!
