, restaurants, library, sports facilities (including public indoor swimming pool) and weekly market.

The river Zezere is less than 10 minutes drive away and offers opportunities for swimming, boating, fishing or just relaxing on one of its many river beaches. The World Heritage town of Tomar famous for its Knights Templar history, castle and Convento de Cristo is 20 minutes distant; the city of Coimbra approximately 45 minutes away; Lisbon airport 1 hour 30 minutes, Porto airport around 2 hours 15 minutes drive and the coast with its glorious beaches just over an hour away.

The property is actually two attached properties with separate article numbers which means that the options include being able to legally sell off one of the properties and keeping the other. Other possibilities include knocking through the adjoining wall to open up the accommodation into one very large property or maintaining the two properties as they stand. Due to its configuration and amount of rooms, the properties would also be ideal as a home with two separate rental accommodation facilities or annexes if desired. Currently comprising 4/5 bedrooms, the property could easily provide a further 3 or 4 bedrooms after some renovation work.

The larger of the two properties is currently comprised of the following rooms:

A corridor, with traditional display cabinet inset into the wall, also gives access to the kitchen, the rear of the property and an inner hallway with living room and bedrooms beyond. The property retains many of its original wooden doors and shutters.

A windowed hallway opens into the large living room with doors off to four ground floor bedrooms, bathroom with bidet, washbasin, toilet, bath with shower attachment, tiled floor and part tiled walls, plus further small room with access to rear.

The kitchen has a traditional rustic oak beamed fireplace and adjoining room used as storage which lends itself to being converted into a dining area or extension of the kitchen - this room has access to the expansive attic via a door and stairs. The attic extends across a large proportion of the footprint of the property and offers conversion potential for a number of bedrooms and bathrooms. The wall at the far end could be knocked through for access to the adjoining property if needed.

At the rear of the property a very pleasant covered terrace leads to a storage room and separate large adega (wine cellar) attached to the far end of the house - these rooms could be converted to further living accommodation to provide a separate annex or just as additional accommodation for the main house if required.

At one side of the property there is a roofed area requiring work, which would be ideal as a garage, workshop or storage as would another separate outhouse with traditional stone walls. There is access to the lane at the front of the property and room for vehicle parking at the side.

The land at the rear has a well and is partially fenced and gives pleasant views across open countryside. There are a number of tree varieties including olive, peach, lemon, orange, tangerine, plum and nespera (type of loquat fruit).

The smaller of the properties has its own front door and hallway with access to the rear of the property, a stairway to a good sized attic, plus two further ground floor rooms. Rooms are currently being used for storage but the accommodation could be transformed into a separate one or two bedroom annex or provide additional rooms for the main property. It has its own piece of land at the rear of 39m2, side access with room for parking and small front garden.

The roof was replaced across the two properties 18 months ago. Electricity and mains water are connected.

This property would be ideal for anyone looking for plenty of living accommodation either as a very spacious family home, rental business or studio with the option to sell one part of the property. Less
