Two bedroom townhouse with garden in Pedrogão Pequeno's Historic Zone.

This C17th two-bedroom ensuite property in the historic area of Pedrogão Pequeno, Sertã, is undergoing a complete renovation and offers the buyer a beautifully designed, quiet home in one of the area's oldest towns.

The first-floor level is open plan with kitchen and lounge areas with views and access to the garden with its spectacular, mature orange tree.

The lower level of the home provides the two en-suite bedrooms, each with independent access to a paved dining and relaxing terrace and up the stone stairs to a walled and fenced garden.

The new roof is fully insulated. The wooden beamed ceiling has been painted white to give a fresh, almost beachside vibe. A large rear window overlooks the garden, bringing light and air to the open-plan interior.

Choices offered to the buyer include flooring type in tile or wood, heating system, wall paint colours, bathroom fitting style, kitchen design and finish. The garden has a registered 10m2 structure that can be repurposed as an office, spare bedroom or garden room.

The estimated time to completion is 12 weeks. Viewing is highly recommended to discuss how you want your new home to look and feel.

The surrounding area is rolling hills and rivers where traditional agriculture and forestry are complimented by an increase in rural tourism with popular trails, bike routes and water activities.

The highly popular leisure area of Cabril is two kilometres from the property. The famous Cabril dam, built in the 1950s, created a vast reservoir where food and drink outlets refresh visitors from Portugal and abroad who come to enjoy the floating swimming pool and the stunning views.

As the town is on a key trading route that crosses the Zêzere river in the valley below, Pedrógão Pequeno’s history stretches back to before Roman times with the town gaining market status in the mid-1400s.

Equidistant to Lisbon and Porto airports, the town lies on the famous N2 north-south route, Portugal’s very own ‘Route 66’, and 15 minutes to the autoroute junction that takes drivers to Coimbra in 40 minutes and Lisbon in 1h 40 minutes.

This exceptional townhouse is being developed by Rural Properties, specialists in heritage buildings and current techniques of insulation and energy efficiency.
