Terreno Sulla Costa Dell'alentejo Con Progetto DI Villa E Potenziale Turistico

Set in the peaceful hills of São Francisco da Serra, bordering Melides, this 6.6 ha property combines privacy, open countryside and building potential in one of the Alentejo coast’s most desirable locations. Pine and cork trees shape the landscape, creating a quiet, natural setting with far-reaching views. The property enjoys convenient access, with Melides, the coast’s beaches and everyday amenities all within relatively easy driving distance.

A contemporary villa project with a swimming pool was previously pre-approved (with PIP), providing a basis for a fresh licensing submission. Following changes to the local planning framework, the project requires resubmission. However, the municipality has confirmed that the property retains building rights associated with the existing structure on the land. This gives a future owner the opportunity to revisit the design and tailor it to their own requirements, subject to the necessary approvals.

The original proposal comprises 244.2 m² of gross building area, arranged across connected volumes that follow the landscape. Generous living spaces, sheltered patios and outdoor decks are complemented by a separate 42.4 m² swimming pool.

The planning framework also provides for rural tourism developments and hotels associated with themes such as nature, wellness, sport or culture, subject to the applicable conditions and approvals. For eligible tourism projects, the maximum construction index is 0.1, increasing to 0.15 for hotels, with construction capped at 4,000 m² and 6,000 m² respectively. These provisions suggest potential for a tourism project for the property, subject to confirmation of its eligibility and municipal approval.

With established villas nearby and distant sea views in the surrounding area, the property offers an appealing opportunity to create a considered countryside home. Its combination of space, privacy and proximity to Melides makes it a compelling setting for a retreat on the Alentejo coast.
