Vila Viçosa Town House

Charming 16th-Century Building & Tourist Investment or Residence in the Historic Center of Vila Viçosa

A charming property awaits you just a ”few steps” from the Ducal Palace and the Castle!

In the heart of Vila Viçosa’s historic center, located in the old Largo da Saboaria—one of the most authentic and emblematic spots in the queen town of Alentejo—stands this exclusive 16th-century building.

The result of a thorough full rehabilitation (completed in 2025), this unique 270 m² property perfectly combines the nobility of traditional Alentejo architecture with the comfort, efficiency, and elegance demanded by contemporary tourism.

Turnkey Business with Immediate Income

The building has been smartly converted and is currently operating as a top-tier tourist accommodation, boasting excellent reviews on major international platforms. It is sold fully furnished, decorated, and equipped, ensuring a smooth transition with a billing history from day one. It can also be used as a permanent residence.

It consists of three high-standard independent apartments:

- T1 Apartment
- T1+1 Apartment
- T2 Apartment

Private Panoramic Terraces with Jacuzzi

The standout feature—extremely rare in the historic center—is its magnificent private terraces equipped with jacuzzis. These leisure and relaxation spaces offer panoramic views of the Ducal Palace, the Castle, and the entire monumental surroundings of Vila Viçosa.
