Historic Farm in Póvoa de Lanhoso

The small parish of São João de Rei (365 inhabitants), is a small rural paradise that presents exceptional quality of life features such as clean air, green landscape and silence. It also has all the infrastructure for modern life - Internet optical fiber network, water distribution network (the property also has its own water source and borders a stream), and sanitation. The property we present has historical characteristics, dating back to the 17th and18th centuries, periods of the two houses of which it is made up. It is linked to the religious cult of its Chapel with devotion to our Lady of Lapa (with its granite image on the pediment facing the street), and also to the agriculture activity – vineyard, cereals and milling (it has a small water mill in the adjacent stream of the property). The “Casa do Ribeiro”, as it is known, due to its last deceased owner – the writer and poet António Celestino, was always associated with the visit of great figures in literature and culture in general. It is also an important legacy of the region and the country! The property needs complete renovation and restoration and appears to us to be ideal for a prestigious and luxurious residence, with the possibility of adding facilities such as a riding arena, swimming pool, tennis or others. It is also the ideal solution for the implementation of a small charming hotel. An opportunity to acquire and enjoy quality of life, in a unique and a prestigious location!
