Bauernhof In Alto Minho

Farm in Alto Minho
Heritage, Vineyards and Tourist Potential by the Cávado River

Located in Manhente, Barcelos, in the heart of Alto Minho, this truly unique property extends over about 27 hectares, with approximately one kilometre of direct facing the Cávado River. A natural setting of rare beauty where historical heritage, winemaking tradition and enormous tourist potential come together in an absolutely different way.

In the centre of the property stands an imposing manor house consisting of eight bedrooms, several living and reception rooms and a private chapel with a confessional, testimony to its historical and architectural value. Both the house and the chapel are sold with their respective fillings, preserving the authentic character and original identity of the set.

The property also includes an attached house with a large hall with capacity for 150 people seated, ideal for events, celebrations or hospitality projects, supported by a fully equipped industrial kitchen. There is also another area consisting of additional housing and storage with potential for rehabilitation for residential, tourist or operational purposes.

The pool area has a support building that includes a solarium, mini gym, large fully equipped kitchen, men’s and women’s changing rooms and generous storage areas, offering ideal conditions for private leisure or tourist exploration. The property also includes a tennis and football court, extensive gardens and vast green areas that reinforce its versatility.

The centenary gate, the greatest symbol of the property, boasts an ancient coat of arms and an impressive tile panel, reinforcing its nobility and historical identity. Throughout the farm there are carefully cultivated vineyards of the Loureiro, Alvarinho, Trajadura, Arinto and Vinhão grape varieties, which give rise to Vinhos Verdes of excellence, recognised for their elegance, freshness and personality. The vines, aged between 15 and 30 years, benefit from the proximity of the Cávado River, which follows the entire property to the south and contributes to ideal production conditions.

The winery, located on the property itself, is equipped with modern technology and strict winemaking protocols, ensuring high quality standards and reinforcing the productive value of this asset.

Referenced in the work ’O Crime do Padre Amaro’, by Eça de Queirós, this property also carries a cultural and literary dimension that adds historical relevance to the set.

Its potential is truly extraordinary, allowing the development of a boutique hotel integrated in the manor house and complementary buildings, the creation of bungalows next to the Cávado River, the conversion of existing infrastructures for events or restaurants, the implementation of a SPA in the pool area and the promotion of wine experiences with tastings and visits to the winery.

It is a rare asset in the national market, where heritage, wine production, privileged location and expansion capacity combine in a strategic investment opportunity with multiple aspects of exploration.
