Valencia de Alcántara - Finished Property


Property Summary

A recently renovated (2019) country house set in 15,802sq m of rural land (almost 4 acres) with excellent access and a 10-minute walk from the market town of Valencia de Alcántara in the west of Extremadura near the border with Portugal. Before renovation it was a ruined stone house which the owners rebuilt and has one bedroom (a loft conversion could provide a second if required) with a living room/kitchen area with 5 m high ceiling, a wood burning stove, and a family bathroom. The house has mains electricity and abundant water and is close to a farm shop which makes and sells hand-made local cheeses!
The land consists of two meadows and a part of dry land. The meadows are completely flat and served as an orchard with fruit trees such as pear trees, walnut trees, plums, quince, hazelnut, fig trees, almond trees ... and in the dry area, which is the upper part of the farm, there are some 30 olive trees, holm oaks, oaks, prickly pears, and an ancient “era” (circle for grinding grain). There is a separate ruin which has an old fireplace which could provide another bedroom or a studio. A second building provides space for the storage of garden equipment. In addition, there are animal pens which would need renovating if you were thinking of keeping animals.
A simple walk beside the river takes you to your local restaurant / bar or you could simply have a walk into town!
