This one-bedroom village property, close to the delightful and popular town of Castanheira de Pera, will make an ideal short-term rental proposition - and in this day and age of ever-rising property prices, is great value for money.
Made from local stone, the property has a new roof and many interior walls already have been plastered - work done that cost over €9.000.
The way in which this bargain home is finished is down to the new owner when creating a fully habitable property. The cottage needs water and electricity connections, both of which are nearby. The structure is sound and waiting to be brought back to life. Rural Properties can advise on the final stages needed.
As a rental proposition, the village of Fontão is a few minute's drive to Praia das Rocas, the ever-popular leisure centre which has a river beach with wave machine and tourist services.
Castanheira de Pera is in Portugal's increasingly vibrant Central Region, just under two hours' drive to both Lisbon and Porto airports and 45 minutes to the University City of Coimbra.
It is very busy in the summertime with an influx of people looking for accommodation in and near to the town and its river beaches, of which three are within a 15-minute drive of the property: Poço Corga, Alge and Campelo - perfect places to cool off on hot summer days.
The surrounding countryside offers many hiking and biking trails, areas of outstanding natural beauty and forests of pine, chestnut, oak and eucalyptus.
