Restored 3 Bedroom Rustic House With Historic Charm In Viana Do Castelo

Charming Restored 3-Bedroom Rustic House with Historic Character in Minho
Located in Lanheses, within the municipality of Viana do Castelo, this detached 3-bedroom house seamlessly combines the character of a 17th-century stone building with the demands of contemporary living. Known as the “Casa da Torre” and later the “Casa da Guarda” for having housed a GNR station until 2006, it underwent a full renovation approximately two years ago. The refurbishment respected its original features and preserved unique elements such as the facade’s coat of arms, the sundial, and the former cell, now converted into a guest bathroom with barred windows.

Ideal as a permanent residence, holiday home, or short-term rental investment, this property merges history, authenticity, and comfort in one exceptional package. Sold fully furnished and ready to move in, it represents a practical and distinctive opportunity in the Alto Minho real estate market.

Interior Layout, Amenities, and Outdoor Spaces

• The residence is spread over two well-organized floors. On the ground floor, you will find the entrance hall, a living room with fireplace and heat recovery system, a guest bathroom, a suite with a private bathroom, and a storage area housing the electric boiler.
• The upper floor comprises a kitchen equipped with induction hob, oven, fridge-freezer, and dishwasher, alongside a small pantry; a dining room featuring a traditional window with built-in “window seats”; two additional bedrooms; a bathroom with shower; and a glazed corridor with direct access to the outdoors.
• The property benefits from central heating via radiators powered by water heated through the fireplace’s heat recovery system, complemented by an electric boiler for domestic hot water (DHW).
• Beyond the interior furnishings, the house also includes outdoor furniture, along with bed linens, towels, and crockery, making it fully equipped for immediate use.
• Exterior lighting enhances ambiance and security. The property is pre-plumbed for a swimming pool, and parking is available within the grounds, although the house does not have a garage.
• Set on over 1,000 m², the grounds offer privacy, green spaces, and ample room for leisure.

Tranquil Setting with Central Location

• The property benefits from a particularly convenient location: just a five-minute walk from the village centre, 15 minutes from Ponte de Lima, 20 minutes from Viana do Castelo, and around one hour from Porto and Francisco Sá Carneiro Airport, with swift access via the motorway.
