Terena (São Pedro), Evora, Address available on request

This spacious house of modern architecture has been built 11 years ago on 3 floors. It has numerous bay windows, covering most of the walls, and ceiling heights of 2 floors in the main room, giving it a majestic cathedral glance!
We access the 4.4 hectares property via a well-maintained dirt road which leads to a first gate. We continue for approximately 150m inside the property, to arrive at the 2nd gate of the house. We cross a gravelled courtyard on the front of the imposing south-west facade of the house to access: either a large garage on the right, or a completely independent apartment on the left, or else the main house on 2 floors in the middle, which has 3 suites, from which 2 on the ground floor have an independent access.

The apartment includes a bedroom with access to a small terrace on the north side, a bathroom with bathtub and a kitchen / living room, which communicates with the main house via 2 doors. One of them leads to the entrance hall and the other to one of the suites, which allows the T1 apartment to be transformed into a T2.
From the courtyard, we enter the main house through a small living room with a panoramic view over the swimming pool and the surrounding nature. This small living room opens onto a large living / dining room, with a central wood fire-burning insert. The living room communicates with a large terrace on the north-east side, which is connected to the swimming pool deck on the left. This living room is very spacious since its ceiling reaches the roof of the house on the 2nd floor. To the left of the entrance door, are the access doors to the apartment and to a suite, which has direct access to the swimming pool.
Crossing the living room, we find: on the right, a social bathroom in the middle, a small intimate lounge / liquor and cigar cellar and on the left, a spacious modern kitchen, with a direct access to the barbecue area on the terrace. From the kitchen, we pass through a pantry to reach a laundry / equipment room (where the heat pump is located) and the garage, large enough for 2 cars. Both from the kitchen and from the terrace, we can access an interior patio, which leads to a storage room and to another suite, with a sofa bed and a bathroom with shower.
Next to the front door, a staircase leads to a mezzanine / library above the main living room. To the left, there is a small office, with a view over the castle, and to the right, is the master suite with its private terrace, its bathroom (with shower and bathtub) and its walk-in closet.

The main terrace is large and communicates with the swimming pool of 10m x 6m x 1.70m. Below the terrace, there are 3 storage rooms. The house is surrounded by a garden and an orchard, with an automatic irrigation system using the water from the municipal dam. The land, completely fenced, is planted with oaks and olive trees.
The quality of construction is superior, both architecturally and regarding the choice of materials. The level of insulation as well as the heating and cooling systems are excellent. All rooms are equipped with reversible air conditioners as well as water radiators, heated by the heat pump powered by 1 solar panel. In addition, there is also a gas boiler. 10 photovoltaic solar panels provide part of the energy to the house, in addition to the main electricity network. The property has a drinking water borehole to supply the house.
The security systems are also elaborated : video surveillance and alarm, reinforced and / or fire doors, automatic gates.

The numerous bay windows, the various terraces on the 2 floors and the access to the outside in every room, give the sensation of being outside while being inside.
The house is impressive due to its dimensions, its brightness, its modern architecture and the very high quality of its equipment. In addition, it has magnificent views over dozens of kilometres, being located on a hill which overlooks the surrounding countryside and faces the castle of the neighbouring village.
The property is located 1km from a small village where the national road which connects Reguengos de Monsaraz to the Lisbon / Madrid motorway goes through. It is 10 minutes from a large village with all amenities, 20 minutes from supermarkets, 45 minutes from Evora, the capital of Alentejo, and the Spanish border, 2 hours from Lisbon and the Algarve. Nearby there is also one of the river beaches of the largest artificial dam in Europe: the Alqueva.
