Charming Stone Estate With Stunning Views Over Serra Da Estrela | Avô, Central Portugal

In the heart of Central Portugal, surrounded by breathtaking natural landscapes and the authenticity of the region’s historic villages, lies this extraordinary fully renovated granite estate, where traditional charm blends seamlessly with comfort and exclusivity.

With a truly unique setting, the property enjoys panoramic and privileged views over the Serra da Estrela and Serra do Açor mountain ranges, offering spectacular scenery throughout the year — from golden sunrises to the beauty of snow-covered mountains during winter.

The main residence preserves all the authenticity of traditional granite construction, having been fully renovated in 2022. On the upper floor, a character-filled kitchen equipped with modern appliances, oak finish modern kitchen units, a walk-in pantry and a traditional wood-fired oven opens onto a bright living room with bifold doors to a balcony and simply unforgettable views over the surrounding landscape. A space designed to enjoy the tranquillity and natural beauty of the region in complete harmony.
This floor also includes an additional bedroom and full bathroom. It is a versatile space, currently used as an office and gym.

On the ground floor, the property reveals a magnificent bedroom with built in wardrobes and ensuite bathroom with bespoke sink unit, shower and large jacuzzi bath, with views to the mountains designed to provide absolute comfort and wellbeing.

Complementing the main house, there is also a charming independent Cottage ideal for hosting guests in total privacy while maintaining the exclusive and welcoming atmosphere of the estate. The cottage consist of an open living room and kitchenette with a wood burning stove on the first floor, and a full bathroom and bedroom on the ground floor. The bedroom is currently used as storage.

Outside, the property features an inviting barbecue area, thoughtfully designed to fully embrace the tranquillity and natural surroundings of the estate.

Designed to provide year-round comfort, both properties benefit from central heating systems, complemented by elegant Italian-designed radiators featured throughout the main living areas.

The property’s technical and sustainable features have also been carefully considered, including a private borehole water supply serving both houses, as well as solar panels supporting the hot water system. The windows have thermal glass maximising comfort in the home. Flooring consists of natural slate, travetine marble and high quality engineered oak.

A security system is fitted to all buildings ensuring peace of mind and protection.

Outside, the estate also benefits from two registered outbuildings:
• one currently used as a plant room, housing the hot water tank and water filtration systems;
• and a second outbuilding with excellent renovation potential, which could be converted into an additional garage, studio or support space.
The property also includes a closed garage and carport with capacity for two vehicles. There is also parking for numerous vehicles.

At the top of the estate lies a registered ruin classified as residential accommodation, with 160m2 distributed over two floors, offering exceptional potential for restoration and future value enhancement — and which may optionally be excluded from the current sale should you wish, subject to negotiation.

The location is simply outstanding. Situated close to the River Alva and just a few minutes from the renowned Praia Fluvial de Avô — recognised in 2024 as one of Portugal’s best river beaches — the property is surrounded by natural trails, waterfalls, river beaches and unique mountain landscapes.

Just 12 km from Oliveira do Hospital, the estate enjoys quick access to hospitals, health centres, banks, supermarkets, shops and all essential day-to-day services.

A truly rare property where nature, authenticity, comfort and exclusivity come together to create a unique living experience in the heart of Central Portugal!
