São João Batista, Viana do Castelo

This Alentejan-style villa with a beautiful stone-effect faade was built about twenty years ago and is in perfect condition. It has four bedrooms, one of which is a suite, and an outdoor relaxation area with a swimming pool and barbecue area; as well as a large garage. It is set on a plot of more than two and a half hectares where there is a large olive grove.A little off a quiet road along which there are other villas, we enter through a gate on a driveway that crosses the orchard. The driveway goes up to the house, which faces east and the slight slope of the land allows it to benefit from a clear view of the fields over dozens of kilometres.We go up a few steps to pass under a porch in front of the main entrance door of the house. We enter through a hall that serves : On the right, a suite with a small bathroom with a shower and a wardrobe. Opposite, a large living room with two French windows opening onto the leisure area at the rear of the house. This room has two spaces (without division) : one for the living room with its wood-burning insert imitating a stone fireplace ; and the other for the dining room, which communicates with the kitchen by a door on the right. The fully equipped kitchen is spacious and we also find a breakfast table there, as well as a wood-burning stove. On the left, a long corridor serves : a bedroom on the left, then a bathroom with shower and finally two other bedrooms at the end, on each side of the corridor.The choice of materials reveals the quality of the construction. The bedroom wardrobes are embedded in the walls, all the doors and cupboards or kitchen units are made of plain oak wood and the windows are double-glazed PVC. There is central heating with low-energy radiators; as well as air conditioning units in all the rooms, except in the master suite where there is a fan on the ceiling and in the kitchen. The interior of the house is perfectly well maintained.From the kitchen, we access through a security door a large covered area closed by blinds on each side. This space has a dining area and a barbecue area, with its old-fashioned bread oven, that communicates with the pool. Through a door on the right, we enter the annex of about 45 m2, which also has water and electricity, as well as a gate to enter cars. This large garage has a sink and is also used as a storage area, workshop and laundry room.On the west side of the house is the relaxation area. The pool is on an upper level and surrounded by a hedge. Between the house and the pool, there is a porch and a terrace that also serves as a playground for children.Behind the pool is a shelter for agricultural equipment. The entire plot of land, about 5000 m2 from the street to this shelter, is fenced with a 2.5 m high fence. The land extends for about 200 m where the traditional olive grove is located, with about 500 olive trees. The orchard has many fruit trees that produce : apricots, peaches, grapes, oranges, medlars, lemons, figs, etc. There is an irrigation system.The house is connected to the main electricity network. It has its own drinking water supplied by a well, as well as a borehole for irrigation and a septic tank. The water is heated by gas.The layout of the rooms inside the house, its relaxation area and its connection with the outside through the outdoor kitchen, make it practical and pleasant to enjoy for a family. The surrounding area, in the middle of the fields, is quiet and the land is ornamented by the olive grove and all the trees planted at the entrance of the property.The property is located less than 4 km from Campo Maior where there are supermarkets, administrations and a health centre. The Delta cafes that have their headquarters in Campo Maior invest a lot in the well-being of their fellow citizens.
