TRADITIONAL 4 BEDROOM COUNTRY HOUSE NEAR COIMBRA

This substantial, 120 year old country house is full of charm and character but does need work to bring it up to date. The property is located on a quiet, country road close to the village of Semide and currently provides first floor living space with several divisions below which could be renovated. There is a large covered terrace at the rear of the house with views over a walled courtyard, a large flat plot of land and the beautiful Portuguese countryside beyond. The property is detached and has neighbours but feels very private.

The property is accessed from the road via an external staircase leading up to a small open terrace to the front and a large covered terrace which extends across the rear of the property. From the terrace there is access to a small, outside bathroom, 2 large reception rooms and a good sized kitchen. The property is in need of refurbishment throughout but retains many original features, including high, wooden ceilings, large original windows with some internal and external shutters. The current layout includes 2 large reception rooms, 4 bedrooms and a large kitchen diner. An internal staircase leads up to a large loft area which has a window and sufficient head height to allow for conversion into a further good sized bedroom.

Below the house are several divisions, originally used to house animals and farming tools. With the addition of an internal staircase, these rooms could be converted to offer further living space with access out into a large, private courtyard. The courtyard is to the rear of the house and offers plenty of space for the addition of a swimming pool. This large, walled space currently has several mature trees, shrubs, outbuildings with an original bread oven and storage areas, including a large room with further access to the garden. This would make a fantastic outdoor entertaining area offering total privacy. Beyond the courtyard is a large flat plot of land with views across the wooden hillside.

Further access to the ground floor is through large wooden gates which lead to an off road parking area with ample space for a garage. There is a track which leads from the road at the other side of the property giving direct access to the garden.
