Historisches Herrenhaus Mit Garten Und Pool Im Herzen Von Alentejo

Set within the historic city of Portalegre, at the foothills of the Serra de São Mamede Natural Park, The Great Green House is a rare Portuguese manor house where architectural scale, history and country living quietly converge. Carefully restored and thoughtfully reimagined, the residence unfolds across 784 sqm of interior space, complemented by a beautifully designed 605 sqm garden created in dialogue with the house and surrounding landscape.

Spanning three floors, the property balances grandeur with intimacy. High ceilings, generous proportions and preserved architectural character create an atmosphere of understated elegance, while carefully integrated contemporary interventions ensure everyday comfort. The house comprises three en suite bedrooms, an additional bedroom, multiple reception areas, a library, attic spaces and a sequence of rooms designed for both private retreat and entertaining.

The garden is central to the experience of the home. Inspired by traditional Portuguese country houses, it was custom designed to create a composed landscape of greenery, shade and movement. A swimming pool, stone fountain and carefully framed outdoor areas transform the property into a secluded private estate in the centre of the city.

Additional features include a garage, gym, central heating and a balcony overlooking the surrounding landscape and rooftops of historic Portalegre. The house offers an increasingly rare proposition: the feeling of a private countryside retreat while remaining within an authentic Portuguese city rich in culture, gastronomy and history.

Positioned less than two hours from Lisbon and surrounded by some of Portugal’s most untouched natural landscapes, The Great Green House presents a compelling opportunity for those seeking a primary residence, refined second home or heritage property with character and permanence.

A residence defined not by excess, but by atmosphere, proportion and timelessness.
