About this place

This stunning four-bedroom house is a meticulously reconstructed manor retreat located in Cortegaça, Portugal. Nestled against the backdrop of the Serra do Luso mountain range, the property boasts a perfect balance of architectural heritage and contemporary living. The spacious area encompasses around 250 square metres of internal living space, sitting on a generous plot of approximately 1,500 square metres, ideal for those who appreciate both nature and accessibility.

Originally dating back to the era of the Third French Invasion in 1810, the home has been reconstructed under the supervision of architects, featuring reinforced concrete pillars for durability while preserving the charm of its original stone walls. The interior combines historical features with modern finishes, highlighted by aesthetic wood detailing that adds warmth and elegance.

Accommodating modern family needs, the house is designed over three floors, providing four spacious bedrooms, three bathrooms, and versatile social spaces, including two living rooms and a dedicated office. For extra utility, the property includes a beautifully finished stone studio, perfect for a gym or artist's space, and an additional studio awaiting renovation, with endless possibilities for customization.

The meticulously maintained outdoor area includes terraced land, mature fruit trees, and a drinking water source, making it a sustainable living choice. Parking for four vehicles and additional annex potential ensure both privacy and convenience. Conveniently situated just five minutes from local shops and essential services in Mortágua, and a short drive from cultural hubs such as Coimbra and Viseu, this home offers a unique opportunity to embrace Portuguese heritage and modern living within a stunning natural environment.

Buying property in Portugal

Full guide →

Portugal is open to foreign buyers with no restrictions on ownership. A NIF (tax number) and Portuguese bank account are required, and most buyers engage an independent lawyer to handle searches, contracts, and the public deed.

  1. 1

    Get a NIF

    Apply for a Portuguese tax number (Número de Identificação Fiscal). Non-EU residents need a fiscal representative.

  2. 2

    Open a bank account

  3. 3

    Promissory contract (Contrato de Promessa de Compra e Venda) with a deposit, typically 10–30%.

  5. 5

  7. 7
